Keating Bodyworks

Ryan truly does one of the nicest massages I have experienced. He arrived at my home with his table and equipment with adequate time to get set up. His massage is intuitive and his communication was exceptional regarding areas I was hoping for additional focus on. He is reasonably priced. Ryan is caring and kind and has great energy. I was totally comfortable with him and look forward to seeing him in the near future! Awesome experience!

He was on time, knew the muscle groups well and even played music that I liked. He respected my privacy. Legit.

I received a massage from Ryan as a birthday present last year — little did I know what an incredible gift it would be! Ryan came to our home, which was different for me — I’m used to going in to receive a massage — but it was actually so wonderful, convenient, luxurious, and comfortable to have hime in our home, that it started off everything on a fabulous note. The actual massage was wonderful — a perfect mix of relaxation and real bodywork that helped with a pinched nerve and some sciatica I was struggling with. Ryan was responsive, balanced, intuitive, knowledgeable, and passionate about his work, and I could definitely tell that as the recipient of his massage. Afterwards he showed me some exercises I could do with a tennis ball and a few stretches in case the muscle cramps returned, which was great; I really appreciated how much time he took to work with me before the massage to learn my needs, and after the massage to make sure I would be able to enjoy the benefits of his work for weeks and months to come. I highly recommend his services, enjoy!

Ryan’s deep tissue massages are amazing! I have two young (heavy) kids and seemingly permanent knots in my shoulders and upper back. His massages are both relaxing and extremely productive. I feel like a completely different person when he’s done. The knots and tightness are gone, and the flexibility is back. Ryan also has great suggestions for ways to strengthen and stretch specific muscles. So helpful! I honestly can’t say enough great things. You won’t be disappointed.

Ryan has trained me and given me some body work. He was so thorough and asked all the right questions during my intake. He showed me exercises that I’ve never seen before! His theories and beliefs are just dead on! He thinks a lot differently than most trainers and massage therapists it’s pretty amazing to see that. More importantly, it worked perfectly!
I’ve had this issue with my rotator cuffs since I was a child and never thought I could fix it. I always thought I’d just have to live with the problem. Ryan showed me some strengthening exercises that almost immediately started to fix this issue! I was completely amazed and I’m still using those exercises!

I have had years of receiving massage from various people and places, yet I cannot say enough good things about my experience with getting a massage from Ryan. I needed immediate assistance, particularly in my shoulder area before a demanding performance that evening as a orchestra conductor. I had hoped to have at least one, pain free performance that opening weekend. After I was worked on, I was astounded at how quickly my pain left me and how greatly my mobility increased. I conducted an entire musical theater show, 5 separate times that particular weekend, PAIN FREE. His attention to detail, as well as his knowledge of applying appropriate pressure where necessary, combined with easily communicating with me about breathing, allowed my muscles to get the release they needed.
Not only have I used Ryan for massage, but I have also gained wonderful nutritional knowledge that I have put to immediate use. Since I am an extremely busy person, my life does not allow the time to research the information that I would like to receive about nutrition and health. I enjoy being able to trust and receive good, solid knowledge that I know is being shared with genuine enthusiasm and care for my well being.
I cannot say enough good things about Ryan and his services.

I was lucky enough to start getting massages from Ryan when he was practicing for school/​certification. Before that point I’d had about 5 other professional massages, and had always leaned towards getting massages for relaxation, and stayed away from the trigger point work. Working with Ryan changed all of that for me. He talked to me about what I was looking for, and encouraged me to experiment with the more therapeutic styles including trigger point therapy and myofascial release. While it was a bit of a departure from what I was used to (where I used to be able to fall asleep on the table I was so relaxed), I have seen so much more improvement in my muscles. It’s still relaxing, don’t get me wrong, but I no longer shy away from the areas that are tender and hurt a bit, knowing that the more they are worked on, the more improvement I’ll feel. Ryan can do many types of massage, so it’s key for you to ask for what you want, and verbalize during the session if you want anything adjusted. The more he knows, the more he can help your muscles. These days I still get regular massages from Ryan, and I love the option of picking music that fits my mood (not just the typical instrumentals). Make sure that if you have a strict time commitment you let him know, he’s respectful of time, but will occasionally go over the hour to ensure that the massage is thorough. I highly recommend him for your next massage, or personal training/​nutrition coaching for that matter, he has a great deal of knowledge of all three, and has taught me so many things that I’ve been able to apply in my life.
