By far the best massage experience I have ever had. I’ve had TONS of massages from spas, hotels, individual, chiropractic, acupuncture, and deep tissue, but this was just above and beyond. I didn’t even need to mention where my trouble spots were, Dave was skilled enough to find them himself and went to work immediately. I didn’t have to say a word during the massage about pressure or placement. I’ve never had a masseuse that can use their hands and arms in so many different ways, or one who is so aware of the body. He could make it feel like his hands were water manipulating my muscle or a warm stone pressing out a knot, it was insane. All the while finding every issue and carefully working it out. He’s also trained in reiki and energy work, which was a lovely addition to the massage. The room has an incredibly calm atmosphere and Dave makes sure to tailor each session to individual needs or sensitivities. If you’re looking for any sort of serious, healing-based massage and want to know that you’ll be safely in the hands of one of the most talented massage therapists out there, then look no further. Dave has had decades of practice and it absolutely shows. I know I’ve found my new massage spot.

David is THE BEST!!!

David was wonderfully sensitive to my concerns, took time to explain the treatment, and even gave me exercises to do! Beautiful environment. He is a skilled therapist and I am so grateful to have his help!

I’ve been working with David for the past year, and I can confidently say he is the most talented massage therapist I’ve ever worked with. I first came to him during my pregnancy when my body was in pain and out of balance. David specializes in prenatal and postnatal massage, and his expertise was evident from the start. He helped me manage the aches and discomfort of pregnancy with care and professionalism, making such a challenging time so much easier for me. Now that I’m postpartum, I continue to see David regularly. He’s been instrumental in relieving the neck and shoulder pain that comes with breastfeeding, holding, and caring for a large baby. He listens closely to my concerns and always ensures I leave each session feeling refreshed, relaxed, and so much better than when I arrived. David is not only highly skilled but also incredibly trustworthy and professional. His calming presence and attention to detail make every session a rejuvenating experience. I will continue to work with him for as long as I can, and I can’t recommend him enough. If you’re looking for a massage therapist who truly understands your needs and delivers exceptional care, David is the one to trust.

David is warm, attentive and communicative. I so appreciated the time we spent on discussing experience, goals and clarifying questions and expectations. He is clear and informative and provided a firm and relaxing touch. He had a variety of techniques and recommendations for my neck/shoulder pain. Not only was it a very relaxing experience (immediate brain melt), I trust that continued bodywork with him would yield very rewarding results.

David is one of the kindest, most respectful professionals I’ve ever worked with. He creates such a calm, welcoming environment and truly takes the time to listen and understand what you need. You can tell he genuinely cares about his clients’ comfort and well-being. If you're looking for someone who blends skill with compassion, David is absolutely the person to see.

I'm an old timer and was deeply dreading the science part of the curriculum at Sunstrate Academy where Dave Holden was a teacher and then principal. I struggled with the sciences in high school and then through college always making barely passing grades. I have rarely come across a teacher who is as captivating, professional and knows his subject matter quite like Mr. Holden. The time in class just flew by and the skeletal system actually became interesting for the first time in my 61 years. I'll never forget I got a 98% on my first major exam covering the skeletal system.. I had not hit a score that high since like second grade! I know I'm going on and on but there is so much to say about this educator who obviously loves his job. Even when he was promoted to principal he still made time for me and my many questions😃 and I never felt rushed out the door. When I heard he was starting his own school, I had to throw my 2 cents in... There is no one more equipped, more deserving, with so much integrity as Dave Holden to own and operate a massage school...
