This person is the best massage therapist I have ever experience in my life. This experience for me was a transitional from excruciating pain 24 hours a day to barely nothing. I would strongly recommend Tao Chi Massage Skin Care (Richard Hays, LmT FS

He truly knows is stuff and is very patient to explain the process to make you feel better not just in the appointment, but willing to take time to explain stretches so you can work on areas yourself. Recommend his services strongly!

One of the best massages I have ever had in a long time. The type of massage is muscular work and trigger points full body. It was spectacular and I will be back for more.

I cannot express how lucky I feel to have found Richard at Tao Ch'l massage. I had a very stiff neck and shoulder pain that had been causing several sleepless nights. I had a 1 hour 15 minute treatment from Richard and by that same evening I was 90% better and slept thru the night! He is extremely knowledgeable, strong, and really knows what to do to get the best results. I returned for 1 more treatment and was 100% better. I would highly recommend his services for any sports related injuries, muscle pain, or just all over well being.

Richard Hayes, the sole proprietor of the establishment, is a wonderful gentleman. He is good at his craft and fairly priced. I have been visiting Tao Ch'I on a regular basis for the past several months, and plan to continue for the foreseeable future.
