If you like deep massages, Doug is awesome! He is extremely knowledgeable about the body and seems to target and troubleshoot any problem areas with a keen sense and intuition. The location of his studio is great in a convenient neighborhood. His prices are reasonable for the expert quality of body work you receive. I highly recommend Doug — give him a try. He’s a nice guy too.

My regular masseuse wasn’t available and I was really in pain… my back, my shoulders… everything! So I got on Unilocal and started looking for someone who would work on me on a Sunday! So, by chance, I called Doug. Not only was he very accomodating(he took me in at 8pm that night!), he’s sooo sweet, so friendly, has great energy and he gave me probably one of the best massages I’ve ever had! He worked on my shoulders, lower back and basically made the pain subside everywhere. I was on cloud nine when I left! I would’ve given him every single dime that was in my wallet for making me feel like a person again(as opposed to the ogre I’ve been feeling like before that evening!). I highly recommend him! He’s easy to get a hold of and even calls back to see how you’re feeling the day after.

One of the best massage therapists I’ve ever had! And I’ve had lots of massages from many therapists for over 15 years. If you like deep-tissue massage, Doug is terrific. He has an uncanny way of going right to the tightest spots. The strokes are slow enough to let the muscles receive the pressure, but not so slow that your body wants more. He has a huge repertoire of moves, including some that I’ve experienced nowhere else and that get places that are difficult to access. Doug is very responsive to whatever situation you’re in when you go to receive the massage; your body may be in a different place each time. When I moved to the Bay Area 18 months ago, I tried a dozen massage therapists, looking for«the one.» Found!

Excellent massage therapist– does therapeutic deep tissue work. Great for long-term musculo-skeletal issues(such as pain, limited range of motion) Doug has worked on a few ‘problem’ areas and with quick result. I like intense body work if it is effective– and Doug’s work has always worked really well for me. When I first saw him he worked on my shoulder. Most recently he helped release some chronic low back/pelvic tightness(related to my psoas muscle). Check him out! in Oakland.
