About
Nineteen years of massage work has taught me something simple: most people carry stress in their body and don't know how to put it down. I've spent nearly two decades learning where that tension hides, and more importantly, how to help people feel the relief of finally letting go.
I trained in massage therapy at the Natural Health School in Washington, DC, back in 2007-2008, but my real education came after that — working with clients, listening to what their bodies needed, and getting better at reading what they couldn't say in words. I'm ex-military, which gave me discipline. Now I'm a student here in Dallas, working my way through school while building a practice that actually matters to me.
My approach blends several techniques depending on what you need. I work with Swedish, deep tissue, sports massage, lomi lomi, and aromatherapy. I can bring a heated table and hot towels to your home, or you can come to my studio in Dallas — whichever fits your life. I offer chair massage, hot stone work, body scrubs, and a few other services too. The core of it is simple: I pay attention to what your body is telling me, and I adjust as we go.
I'm friendly and easygoing with everyone. Young or old, athlete or not, gay, straight, male, female — it doesn't matter to me. What matters is that you walk out feeling better than you walked in. I work late most nights, open at 11 a.m. on weekdays and noon on weekends, so I can fit into a busy Dallas schedule.
If you want to book, text my cell — messaging here gets delayed. I look forward to working on those bodies and making your stressful day a little brighter.
Testimonials
Ellis has the technical skills many massage therapists have, but it's the whole experience that sets him apart. He has everything needed to give you something you'll want again and again, and that's exactly what I'll be doing.
A massage with Ellis will be a positive and gratifying experience. His hands are both strong and tender, erasing tension completely. He speaks well and is a caring person who truly masters his craft. He'll work through your sore areas with skill and leave you with an unforgettable experience and wonderful memories. I'll seek him out whenever I'm in town.
His massage work is excellent — powerful hands and a relaxing technique. Great body too.
What he describes in his profile is accurate, and his photos don't even do him justice — he's much more handsome in person. But the real draw is his personality. He's warm, welcoming, and laid-back. When I arrived, we chatted briefly and he offered water before the session. What I asked for was a solid, real massage, and that's exactly what he delivered. Strong touch, some stretching work woven in, and I left feeling deeply relaxed. We talked a bit more before I left, and I told him I have high standards — and he met them. It felt like spending quality time with a friend. I'm already planning to return.
Ellis is handsome and charming, but what really struck me was how friendly and welcoming he is. His massage space feels calm and peaceful, and his hands are incredibly strong and skilled. I'd recommend him to anyone seeking a really good massage.
This may be the best massage I've ever received, and I'm not overstating it. His technique was completely different from anything I'd encountered, and he took his time working on me. The room itself felt perfect — peaceful music, a warm table beneath me, everything designed to help you relax. He knew exactly where to focus his attention. If I lived in Dallas, I'd book him weekly without hesitation.
Very friendly and professional, with a real gift for reading what your body needs and adjusting accordingly. He's charming and genuinely a good person. He exceeded what I expected — highly recommended. 5/5
Ellis is truly one of a kind. His warmth, his smile, and his good looks make him easy to connect with. His hands are very strong and he delivers excellent work. Beyond the massage itself, he's kind and communicative throughout. If you skip booking with Ellis, you're missing out on exceptional bodywork. His studio is clean and peaceful, which helped me relax completely. He's a blessing and I can't wait to return.
If Ellis is in your area, you have to book him. It's uncommon to find someone this committed to his craft, and Ellis genuinely is exceptional at what he does. Whether you're a young athlete or just an average person, he treats everyone with the same level of skill and respect. My first massage with him felt like stepping outside my body. He's highly attuned to what your body needs and shaped the experience into exactly what I'd hoped for and more. Ellis is one of a kind and worth every penny. You won't need another massage therapist after experiencing his work. Thank you, Ellis — I'm already looking forward to my next appointment.
Hemasseur's Take
Clients consistently highlight Ellis's combination of strong, skilled hands with a warm and attentive presence that makes them feel heard and cared for. His work in deep tissue and sports massage leaves people feeling deeply relaxed, with specific tension released and tension-holding patterns interrupted. What stands out across reviews is how clients describe the entire experience — from the peaceful studio environment to his easygoing personality — as equally important as the physical technique itself, with many saying they'll return specifically because working with him felt like time with a friend, not just a transactional service.
