Beyond the "Band-Aid"

Traditional massage can feel like a temporary fix. My work empowers you to build sustainable resilience rather than just provide a moment of relief. To create lasting change, we move beyond just a muscle or fascia focus to incorporate a whole person, nervous system approach. I work from a current pain science lens to help you change the deep bracing patterns of your neuro-myo-fascial system and a release of long-held tension and pain.

⚭ Therapy as Deep Relaxation ⚭

My name is Daniel Keene, LMT (he/him). Drawing from 15 years dancing with American Ballet Theatre, I bring firsthand insight into movement, pain, and the resilience of the body.

My approach lives at the intersection of clinical therapy, deep relaxation, and functional movement training, collaborating with you to tailor each session to your needs. Effective massage doesn't require pain. By prioritizing comfort and slowing down, we unwind protective bracing—so you can feel and move better.

    “Daniel's Fascia Love class is amazing. It introduced me to a new way of thinking and experiencing movement. I had never thought about the fascia tissue covering our muscles. Focusing on the fascia with simple but powerful exercises has increased my strength and flexibility. Daniel is a wonderful teacher, and I recommend his class to all." Lisa
