Medical Massage for Real Pain Relief
Relieve pain, restore function, and support recovery with licensed massage therapist Mike Dow
With over 15 years of hands-on experience, I specialize in medical massage therapy for people living with pain—whether it’s chronic, acute, or injury-related. At Dao Therapeutics, my approach is results-driven and rooted in a wide range of clinical techniques, designed to help reduce inflammation, improve mobility, and address the underlying causes of pain. From long-standing tension to sudden injuries, I tailor every session to support your unique healing process and help you get back to living with less discomfort and more freedom.
*For most acute pain conditions, 3 sessions within 10 days is recommended. This short-term treatment plan helps your body break out of pain cycles, reestablish healthier movement patterns, and prevent old tension habits from returning during this critical phase of healing and body education. After this initial period, if additional sessions are needed, the frequency of visits is gradually tapered, allowing your body to continue integrating the work with more space between sessions.
Please Note: For bodywork precision, clients are asked to wear elastic-banded underwear or shorts. Women may wear a sports bra if they choose; professional draping is always maintained.
