About

When you feel the difference between surface-level relaxation and deep therapeutic work, you understand why I've been doing this since 2001. My hands know how to move through your body like water, ebbing and flowing between light touch and intense pressure, finding the places where tension has settled and teaching your muscles to let go.

I trained at Texas Massage Institute right here in Dallas, and over more than two decades I've woven together Swedish, deep tissue, trigger point, myofascial release, and Lomi Lomi into something that works like an art form. I use my forearms and elbows as much as my hands, opening energy channels and accessing deeper musculature with distraction techniques that keep your nervous system calm while the real work happens. Hot stones, heated towels, light stretching—I've layered these elements into my routine because I've learned what actually helps people heal.

I'm a gay massage therapist, and I've built my practice around serving Dallas's LGBTQ community with genuine care and no judgment. My studio in the 75223 area runs 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. every day, and I also travel to clients throughout the Dallas area. Whether you're carrying stress from your job, recovering from injury, or just need to feel human again, my mission is simple: relax your mind and body, reset what's tight and stuck, and rejuvenate your sense of what healing feels like.

Testimonials

When I called for an appointment, he got back to me quickly and fit me in the same day at my preferred time. He gave clear directions, and his studio turned out to be safe and spotless. He matched his description and photos, was friendly and genuinely interested in my questions, and his work was incredibly thorough. The creams he uses felt luxurious, and I walked out feeling something I'd never experienced in any other massage.

This was the best massage I've ever had, hands down. I'd be there every week if I lived closer.

July 12, 2017 · Provincetown, MA · in-studio

I've been seeing Garry on and off for about ten years, and he's one of the few Dallas therapists I trust completely for a quality therapeutic massage every single time. On my first post-COVID session with him, I noticed his technique keeps evolving. He's added hot stone work and a heated neck pillow since my last visit, and both have this wonderfully soothing effect. Some people seek him out purely to relax and unwind, but Garry is a real therapeutic and energy worker who identifies actual problems in your body and attacks them aggressively. Like a good doctor or physical therapist, he doesn't back off when there's some discomfort involved because he knows what you need and that you might have to push through a little to get there. He has unique ways to help your brain and body handle that discomfort so you can get through it. I value this approach because so many therapists only cater to clients who want an hour of relaxation. He pushes me to perform at my best.

Hemasseur's Take

Clients consistently highlight Garry's ability to locate and resolve deep muscle tension, especially in the back and neck, while maintaining a relaxing atmosphere—a rare combination. His technique continues to evolve, and he's known for not backing down from aggressive therapeutic work when needed, using distraction methods and heat therapies to help clients push through discomfort without anxiety. Multiple reviewers describe his hands as having healing energy and praise his unhurried, attentive approach and clean, welcoming studio.

FAQ

How much does deep tissue massage cost in Dallas?

A 90-minute deep tissue session with me is $160. That's below the Dallas average of $136 per hour, and my rates reflect 23 years of specialized technique work, not a quick fix.

Does Garry offer same-day appointments in Dallas?

Yes. Call or text to check availability, and I can often fit you in the same day. My studio is open 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. every day of the week.

What massage is best for back pain?

Deep tissue combined with trigger point work is my go-to for back trouble. I spend time locating the exact spots where tension has locked up your muscles and use sustained pressure, myofascial release, and distraction techniques to help you push through into real relief without fighting the pain.

Is there a mobile massage therapist near Dallas?

Yes. I serve clients throughout the Dallas area at their homes or offices. Call to discuss your location and availability, and we'll set something up.

I blend Swedish, deep tissue, trigger point, myofascial release, Lomi Lomi, and sports massage into a single session. I also incorporate hot stone work, heated towels, light stretching, and aromatherapy to deepen the experience.

Can I book a massage same-day in Dallas?

I often have same-day openings. Reach out directly with your preferred date and time, and I'll let you know if I can accommodate you.

What makes your massage different?

I've spent 23 years developing a technique with unique fluidity. I use my hands, forearms, and elbows to open energy channels, combine multiple modalities in every session, and employ distraction techniques that let your body relax while I access deeper muscle tissue where the real problems live.

Do you serve the LGBTQ community in Dallas?

Absolutely. I'm a gay massage therapist who's proudly served Dallas's LGBTQ community since 2001. My studio is a safe, welcoming space, and I bring genuine care and respect to every client.
