I started going to David years ago when he was at Modern Salon before he and his (now) wife opened their own place above my naturopathic doctor in a cute house in Elizabeth, and now is on Providence. He is both gentle and strong. He helped me get through some really bad neck pain caused by stress and an improper bike fit, which on a triathlon bike can wreak havoc in such a low aggressive position. He is generous with his time, is very zen, and just has a magical touch. He seems to "read" body reactions very well and he understands physiology and psychology very well. They have a variety of treatments. Next time I'd like to try a wrap.
I highly recommend David and think he is the best masseur in Charlotte. My only reason for not going to him on a regular basis? Pure and simple: Budget. When I'm a rock star, I'll have him on retainer.
