To keep the body in good health is a duty, otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear. -Buddha

For 10+ years Duane worked along side Dave Salo and the USC swim team until 2020 as their elite sports massage therapist for PAC-12’s, NCAA’s and National’s as well as Olympic Trials. He is also trained in many bodywork disciplines for most of which are geared towards injury treatment and recovery.

For 10+ years Duane worked along side Dave Salo and the USC swim team until 2020 as their elite sports massage therapist for PAC-12’s, NCAA’s and National’s as well as Olympic Trials. He is also trained in many bodywork disciplines for most of which are geared towards injury treatment and recovery. After years of his chosen career path surrounding him with trauma Duane began to feel a shift, it felt like things weren't working, that this career path was less about healing than he wished for. In 2005 he signed up for a medical massage course that would forever change his trajectory. A trajectory more aligned with healing and recovery. Duane is a Mentor, a Coach, and a Bodyworker. Duane has been a healer for most of his life, going as far back as driving ambulances in California and as an Emergency Department Technician in Tacoma WA, His desire to heal and help others find their way is core to who he is. He has found that customizing techniques and treatments to each client is what is most effective and important. Duane has been in private practice in Tacoma since 2009.

REVIEWS for my Bodywork or Coaching services

Excellent session as usual! Duane is a master mechanic. His body work is top notch. Our discussions are always enlightening. Duane is just cool guy! I highly recommend him

If you want some of the best bodywork you can conceptualize. LOOK NO FURTHER. Duane does everything to highest capacity. He wants to make sure you feel better from top to bottom. If you have questions about how and why you’re in pain he’ll get you going in the right direction. He wants you to be happy and healthy. So you can attack your goals in every aspect of life pain free.

When he shares, (and what he shares is interesting) he often stops working. Common among body workers. Either don't share or talk and work at the same time.

Duane was very attentive during my intake and gathered a lot of information regarding my ailments, and during the treatment he offered information regarding his technique.

Duane is the real deal!

Duane's depth and breadth of experience and skill in therapeutic massage, combined with honed listening skill and focused presence, are why I highly highly recommend! I have been through two hip surgeries over the course of a year due to a freak accident, and searching for effective ways to aid and assist full recovery to my previously very high level of physical strengh, stamina and agility. Im very glad I am working with this wonderful human being to achieve my goals!

In addition to feeling amazing physically after my massage, I also come out of my visits with Duane feeling more sane in this crazy world.

Duane listens carefully before, during and after treatment. He finds the painful spots and works through them with care. His training in ligament release has been particularly helpful to me with shoulder and sciatic issues. We are currently working on tendinitis behind one knee and I expect to be in recovery mode with Duane & PT very soon. He has extensive experience with athletes.

Duane is the master of massage! With his extensive knowledge and many years of experience he's able to use a variety of techniques to relieve the deep knots and help my body function optimally again.
