27 Must Reads of a Massage Therapist

“I feel very lucky to have discovered Dave’s talents as a massage therapist: After four or five sessions I now have complete mobility in my left shoulder. What’s even better, I no longer wake up in the middle of the night in pain, my shoulder hurting because I had moved the wrong way in my sleep. Dave not only provided the massage therapy… but he also gave me a number of exercises which would strengthen the muscles and help ensure that I did not re-injure the shoulder.”

“No matter where I travel for my career, I always come back to Peter Roach because I have found no other RMT with his effectiveness of treatments, his level and diversity of skills, dedication to his patients and passion for the science behind therapy. He is always enriching his knowledge and passes on that knowledge to his clients through the sessions, his website and newsletters. As a result, I have a stronger understanding about my body and its health & maintenance. Besides feeling absolute relief from muscle tensions, I always leave his office feeling inspired.”

Jessica C., client since 2006

“While rehearsing a professional play, I developed a very painful neck injury. The director and cast members recommended Dave Campbell. After his skilled treatment I was able to return to work without prescription drugs. A physician later confirmed certified massage therapy was the best treatment and my stage union insurance reimbursed costs. I’m nearing 70 and am happy to vouch for Renewed Balance services.”

Yanni Thanasoulis – Fantastic masseuse. I have seen Cassandra for a few different issues and she is very good at explains what is going on and why Im feeling a certain way so I can get a great understanding of what is going on. Highly recommended!

“He is an expert at understanding and fine-tuning the instrument that is a performer’s body. You can literally trust that you’ll be in good hands with Dave Campbell!”

Lisa B. – New Westminster BC (Client since 2011)

“I have been seeing Peter Roach regularly for just over 25 years. Peter has helped me to relieve areas of stress and tension, and maintain a conscious level of awareness of my body. Peter is knowledgeable in many areas of massage therapy, especially relating to physical fitness, as my many questions are always thoroughly and more than satisfactorily answered.”

Paul Romani – I’ve been a client of Cassandra for well over a year now, and it is understandable why Cassandra’s client base has grown so quickly! Although this is massage therapy, Cassandra creates a warm, welcoming atmosphere with background music. She works with her customer’s needs and has a lot of empathy. I never get tired of hearing about her dog, Pancakes 🙂 Part of her work involves explaining what she’s doing and why (if asked), which demonstrates her expertise. In fact, I’ve noticed over the past year how much her technical range has expanded. Most importantly, I can state that the lower back pain that I had for almost 20 years has now gone, and I think that is largely because of Cassandra’s work. Overall, I certainly recommend Cassandra as a very effective RMT!

“Dave Campbell is simply the best when it comes to good RMT work! As a repeat customer I am very familiar with the long-term benefits Dave’s skillful hands are bringing to my body and general well-being. Thanks Dave!”

Dean Paul G. – Vancouver BC (Client since 2011)

“I have been going to Peter for 25 years and he is FANTASTIC! Even though I’ve moved to Burnaby I would never change massage therapists. I have chronic back & neck problems from car accidents & I rely on Peter’s therapy & exercize advise to work out the knots & spasms. He’s also a great guy & handsome too!”

Andre Coudreau – I’ve been seeing Cassandra for over 2 years now and she’s excellent. I’ve seen many different RMTs in the past but I seem to get better results with her. She’s very friendly and always knows what areas are giving me issues. I’ve seen her for neck and shoulder issues, tension headaches, knee pain, hip pain, lower back pain and probably a few more issues that I’ve forgotten about. I know for sure that her treatments accelerate my healing process and allow me to continue living my physically active lifestyle 🙂 if I could afford it I would hire her full time haha. Thanks Cassandra!

“I do lots of lifting and carrying in my job and can always trust Dave to get rid of all the knots and kinks that crop up. He always finds the root of whatever particular problem I have and makes it disappear. I travel a lot in my job and have over the years visited other massage therapists, none of whom can match Dave. Whenever I’m home, I make sure to visit him. He really is the best.”

Heather M. – Vancouver BC (Client since 2001)

“I have been going to Bayswater for more than 10 years. i was experiencing chronic back pain and had tried a number of therapies. One of Peter’s clients recommended Bayswater. Peter was able to identify the problem and has treated it successfully. He is a great massage therapist and has helped me design a program of strength training which is fun and helps me maintain my active lifestyle. Peter is very professional and works hard to incorporate the latest health information and technology. I would highly recommend Peter and Bayswater Neuromuscular.”

Kiran Schaffer – Cassandra is great! I have been getting treatments for plantar fasciitis and her treatments have been so helpful in relieving the discomfort. She is very caring and personable and gave some very helpful home strategies to help with the pain that were easy to integrate into my daily life.

“I’ve run two marathons in the past few years, and couldn’t have done it without Dave! The pressure it puts on your body is extreme…and I am injury free. I believe it’s due to his extensive knowledge and years of experience. Any question about how your body connects, he can answer and explain in an accessible way. This translates into an excellent massage, with lasting results!!! If you’re looking for a wise use of your budget, Renewed Balance is the best in the city. Recommend without a doubt!!!”

Natasha W. – Vancouver BC (Client since 2008)

“I see Peter at Bayswater. I have experienced may deep tissue massages over the years and must say Peter is the most knowledgeable massage therapist I have met to date. He is excellent in identifying problem areas and looks for solutions. You can tell he enjoys his work and is always expanding his knowledge. The office and massage rooms are clean and comfortable and I have no problem recommending them.”

Joseph Leung – Cassandra is a great RMT! She listens to your concerns and is thorough in her technique. She looks for different ways to relieve muscle tension and reduce symptoms. She also gives some stretches and exercises that can be done at home to maintain and prolong wellness. I would highly recommend her!

“I see Christopher Quirk at Bayswater. I have recommended many others and we all feel he is tops. Knowledgeable and kind with a goofy sense of humor, Chris is my go-to guy for chronic muscle pain or deep tension release.”

Danielle M. via Yelp.ca

“I’ve been seeing Dave for years, and wouldn’t think about seeing anyone else. His experience and knowledge are second to none, and he’s also a heck of a nice guy! As a weekend warrior, stressed out computer operator, and aging boomer, I have received effective relief for neck, lower back, hip and leg pain/lack of mobility.”

Deb W. – Vancouver BC (Client since 2005)

“I have had great massage from Peter Roach for a very long time. I have always found him very knowledgeable, knows great point pressures and deep tissue work to release any tension. Peter is respectful, caring and has a great laugh. The office is nice and comfortable but could have more interesting magazines in the waiting area. I would like to see more aromatherapy in his oils.
I trust him.”

Sincerely,

André the Free – Cassandra is very professional, and great at what she does. After about a month of treatment from her, I was able to resume exercising as I did before. Only RMT you’ll ever need, and a great recommendation to anyone!
