About
Sterling Massage Academy in Addison taught me the foundation, but seven years in the field has taught me something deeper: how to listen. I earned my license in 2020 and haven't stopped learning since. Over these years, I've worked with clients across Texas and beyond — from Dallas to New York to California — and what I've learned is that every body tells a story.
I'm Ty, a gay massage therapist based in Oak Lawn, right in the heart of Dallas. New hours start June 1st, 2026, and I'm excited to be even more accessible from the Dallas North Tollway and I-35. My studio is warm, private, and judgment-free — a space where you can breathe and let go.
What I do is blend precision with presence. I draw from acupressure, trigger point work, deep tissue, hot stone, aromatherapy, myofascial release, polarity therapy, sports massage, and Swedish technique. I also offer cupping and chair massage if that's what you need. But technique alone isn't enough. I bring authenticity and genuine care to every session, creating an environment where you feel completely safe and seen.
When you come in — or when I come to you, since I travel throughout the Dallas area — you get more than relaxation. You get someone who understands the specific needs of gay men, who respects who you are, and who knows how to work out tension while honoring your whole self. Whether you're recovering from training, managing stress, or simply need to reconnect with your body, I customize every session to what you actually need in that moment.
I offer spa-quality bodywork starting at $65 for 30 minutes in studio, and I serve clients both in my Oak Lawn location and through mobile massage within a 10-mile radius. I'm open Wednesdays 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., Thursdays through Saturdays 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. I also offer discounts for repeat clients, dancers, entertainment industry workers, massage therapists, SAG/Equity members, and airline crews. Ask about prepaid bodywork packages too.
Leaving each session, you'll feel lighter, grounded, and fully recharged. That's my goal — not just to massage, but to offer you an experience that honors both your body and your mind.

Testimonials
I felt so good after my massage with Ty! Not only was he really easy to work with about fitting me in, but he also made sure everything was exactly what I needed. His studio feels inviting and comfortable, and I felt right at ease the moment I walked in. When I left, I felt totally calm, and the benefits lasted for several days after. His work style is one of the best I've come across, and I'll be returning.
I've had Ty work on me twice now, and both times were wonderful. The first appointment was a harder stretching session that helped me bounce back from my workouts. The second time, Ty did gentle energy work with me and I have never felt more relaxed. He's without question the best massage person I can find in Dallas. He knows exactly how to adjust every massage to match what your body needs on any given day.
I've never experienced a massage therapist who blends so many different massage styles with such expertise. Ty worked through all my tension while keeping a strong emotional and physical connection going throughout. Highly suggest booking if you're ever in the same city or can bring him to yours.
I can't speak highly enough about Ty. From walking into his calm, welcoming space in Oak Lawn, I immediately felt at peace. Ty is far more than a massage therapist—he's a real healer with an intuitive way of touching and a strong grasp of what gay men specifically need. His warmth, empathy, and openness create a secure and validating place that's uncommon to find. Whether you're storing stress in your neck and shoulders, dealing with exercise-related tension, or just want to get back in touch with your body, Ty's work goes further than just the physical side. He mixes skill with a real human quality that makes you feel like you matter. The fine points matter too: heat in the towels, peaceful background sounds, the right amount of force, and a room that feels like a retreat. Ty listens to what your body is telling him and shapes the session to fit you. I walked out feeling stronger physically, calm mentally, and thrilled about coming back. For gay men in Dallas who need an excellent massage therapist who truly understands, Ty is the person to see. The finest massage I've gotten—and I've had plenty. Make a booking right now. You'll be happy you did.
Ty delivers exceptional work that combines solid technique with real compassion, and I felt completely refreshed afterward. The setting is inviting, supportive, and free of judgment—the kind of place where you can truly let yourself relax. What makes him stand out is how genuine he is. He creates a safe space where you feel understood and valued—something you don't find often. His care and awareness make each visit feel special and life-changing. I recommend Ty without hesitation if you want more than just a massage, but a healing experience that cares for your entire self. My next booking is already on my calendar.
Ty gave me one of the most complete relaxation experiences I could ask for. He was flexible with making space in his calendar and made sure everything was set up to suit exactly what I was looking for. His space feels open, safe, and I felt welcomed right away. I felt completely at ease when I left, and felt even better over the next few days. His massage style is one of the best I've tried, and I will absolutely be back.
The work Ty did on me today was outstanding, and I'm already thinking about my next time. I picked the 90 minute session and not a single moment felt wasted. Ty has impressive technical skill and he stays fully engaged. That presence alone takes the whole thing to another level. As a person, Ty is kind and attentive. The room feels calm and feels like a place I belong.
I got a massage from Ty recently and it was truly one of the most powerful healing sessions I've experienced. The moment I arrived, Ty's kind and friendly way put me at ease right away. He took time to understand what I needed and put together something that felt custom-made. His ability is striking. He switches between different methods with ease, changing pressure and which spots he focuses on to help release specific knots. I left feeling refreshed and deeply settled, like something heavy had left my shoulders. His intuitive way of working and his careful attention are really something. Beyond just his hands-on ability, Ty is naturally good at helping people feel OK and heard. He builds a secure place where you can really let go and forget your worries. It's apparent he genuinely cares about how his clients feel, turning every session into a shared path toward better health. For a massage therapist who really knows their craft and who makes you feel comfortable and supported, I strongly recommend Ty. He stands out in the field, and I'm counting down to my next appointment.
Ty provided me with the ultimate relaxation experience! Not only was he incredibly accommodating with my schedule, but he also made sure my session was customized exactly to meet my needs. His studio space is welcoming, comfortable, and I felt right at home. I left my session feeling totally zen, and felt even better the days following. Ty’s massage technique is one of my favorites I’ve ever experienced, and I will for sure be returning.
