66 YO- Overall health has improved through massage therapy

by 3kickers at Citysearch

I have the highest regard for Nathaniel's skills as a medical massage therapist. I had a stroke that paralyzed my left side ( face,arm,leg) in March,2007. This was followed by open heart surgery in May,2007 to replace a mitral valve. The surgery went well but I needed a pacemaker five days later. I recovered well with the help of an excellent rehab group and the counsel and medical care of an extremely competent cardiologist and his team.

18 months ago I went to Nathaniel for an ongoing stiff neck problem that I have had for 25 years as a result of sports injuries . Except for surgery I had explored

all traditional avenues of care (I thought). After three visits my stiff ,painful neck problem was gone..it stays at bay by being addressed every 3-4 weeks now. I had considered my recovery from my stroke and heart surgery to be complete. However,15 months ago I decided to see if the numbness ,circulation and flexiblity of my left side could be improved through medical massage as well as addressing aging problems ( I am 66) of lower back and hip pain. As an estimate of recovery I would say all these problems have recovered 70%. I started playing basketball again about 4 weeks ago. I lift weights and do Cardio 5 days per week. Massage Therapy is part of the reason i am able to still do these things.

One Massage Therapist about another

by coppertop098 at Citysearch

I've been to MANY, MANY massage therapist and have had some good massages and a lot of not so good massages. Im also an LMBT here in the Triangle and I speak from experience when I say that Nathaniel has exceeded my expectations.

I was specifically looking for a therapist that had experience in Medical massage because of some lower back issues a few other therapist were not able to help with and also specifically TMJ. From the beginning, Nathaniel was professional and courteous. He took the time to assess my posture as a good massage therapist would do.

His treatment methods were excellent and "on point." He used several different techniques to target my problem areas. Most of them were fairly AWESOME! LOL I hope he doesn't mind if I borrow a few for my practice.

He continually upgrades his knowledge on massage modalities. Most recently he traveled to an educational opportunity in Advanced Myofascial Release. I was extremely glad to be his client on his return. :-D

I whole-heartedly endorse Nathaniel as your next massage therapist. If you have a musculature issue that just can't seem to get better, he's the professional to see.

Best Deep Tissue Massage Ever

by jenn1130 at Citysearch

I have gone many places over the years to deal with my tension headaches and Nathaniel is the best, hands down. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable about how the body works, but he will show you things to do at home that will help you improve on a daily basis and never tries to sell you anything. He immediately identifies problem spots and is very conscious of how much pressure different areas can handle. I hope he never leaves the area because I'm not sure I could ever find someone else as good as he is. I think he is magic.

Outstanding service, knowledgeable staff

by greg t at Citysearch

Nathaniel was my therapist and he was knowledgeable and very good at explaining what he was doing, why and what to expect afterwords. His work has been the best at addressing my upper back and shoulder pain.

• Pros: Helpful massage
• Cons: A bit difficult to find
