“Lance has been my primary massage therapist for 6 years, from when I was competing as a track & field athlete, to now as a graduate student and coach. He is great at adjusting his work for what my body needs any given day, whether it's an athletic massage to recover from training or a stress-relieving massage to recover from working. He's helped me tremendously with my frequent IT band pain and shoulder stiffness, and I'm always impressed that he remembers what we worked on during previous sessions. I can tell he is passionate about what he does, and I always feel better after an appointment with him.”
“Many massage therapists have helped me gain short-term relief from chronic pain in my back and hip, but Lance addressed the underlying problem of imbalance in my pelvis and lower back and literally, for the first time in years, I regained movement and relief and a sense of optimism that I can shed this pain permanently. He has shown me behavioral and postural changes that are making a big difference in my life and sense of well being.”
“I would recommend Lance Deal to anyone. His approach to massage therapy is very deliberate and thoughtful, resulting in a treatment that addresses the root of any issues. It's clear that Lance draws on his extensive experience as an athlete and coach, but his massage therapy is perfect for both athletes and non-athletes.”
"Lance's methodical approach healed years of accumulated issues and set me on a new path to wellness. I consider my sessions with him an integral component of my overall health and fitness program."
“I first started seeing Lance in the summer of 2018 while I was recovering from the Butte to Butte 10k race. While I put up a great time, at age 40, I need someone to help he loosen up after my first endurance event in 5 years. I was really impressed with Lance’s strength and technique during our first session. Lance has enormous hands and physical strength which allows him to apply force uniquely. I’ve worked with over a dozen LMT’s before and nobody else out there has the same combination of body knowledge, strength and empathy which Lance exhibits.
Soon after I started working with Lance I was in an auto accident and needed help recovering from whiplash. Lance was a big part of my path to recovery. And, although, he hadn’t done insurance billing before, Lance went out of his way to set up insurance billing for me. It’s this level of extra care and effort that sets Lance apart from other LMTs. And he brings that caring both into his massage and everything he does.
I am happy to know Lance and can’t recommend him strongly enough.”
“Lance is able to go above and beyond an ordinary massage experience because he draws from his many years of experience as an athlete when developing treatment plans. He is thorough, thoughtful, and always ready with a few exercises so you can help address the root causes of your issues even when you aren’t getting treatment.”
