Samuel Dooley Craw

My mission is to bring a kind of therapeutic massage to clients that encompasses their individual concerns and is effective yet comforting in its delivery. I welcome any challenge your acute or chronic issues may pose to my skills and knowledge as a therapist and pledge to do my best to meet them with the best personalized care available within my scope. Together, we will develop a therapeutic plan, including healthy habits (i.e., stretching routines, ergonomic work/exercise/sleep posturing, home therapies and exercises) that will supplement your sessions and ensure a quick and long-lasting response to treatment.

I am trained primarily in Neuromuscular Therapy--a clinical school of massage seeking to address pain, hypertension, reduced range of motion, and other soft tissue dysfunctions associated with any acute injury or chronic pathology using trigger point applications, stretching, and a slow, deliberate mode of massage--among other integrated methodologies.

The clients that I see most often have repetitive use injuries, stress, and tension stemming from work (esp. desk or travelling jobs), exercise, or posturing (including sleep); acute injuries or training concerns from sports and exercise (esp. running, weight-lifting, cardio workouts); or need physical rehabilitation from surgeries or dysfunctions.
