About Dan

Founder of Para Health Massage

My name is Dan, and I’ve been happily married since 2009. My wife and I are raising two amazing kids—our daughter, born in 2010, and our son, born in 2013. Family, service, and healing are the core values that shape everything I do.

I’m a medically retired U.S. Army veteran who experienced firsthand the physical and emotional toll that life—and service—can take on the body. It was through my own recovery that I discovered the powerful, restorative effects of deep tissue massage. That experience transformed my life and gave me a new mission: to help others heal through intentional, therapeutic touch.

Since March 2022, I’ve been a practicing Buddhist. For a time, I led an English-speaking meditation group at Quan Am Temple in Mason, until growing responsibilities with Para Health Massage required my full attention. That practice continues to inform my values—mindfulness, compassion, and presence—in everything I do, including how I approach healing work.

At Para Health Massage, I operate with the belief that our bodies and minds are instruments—not for conflict, but for connection, clarity, and contribution. With proper care, they help us live with purpose and vitality. I advocate for a lifestyle rooted in a healthy diet, consistent and vigorous movement, mindfulness, and regular massage therapy.

Massage isn’t just about relaxation. When practiced with skill and intention, it’s a powerful tool for restoring balance—physically, emotionally, and mentally. Whether you’re managing pain, recovering from stress, or seeking a deeper sense of well-being, I’m here to help you reset, rebuild, and reconnect with your life.

About Para Health Massage

After being medically retired from the U.S. Army, I experienced firsthand the powerful healing that deep tissue massage can offer. But when my trusted massage therapist left the area, I found it nearly impossible to replace that level of care. Every session I tried felt the same—generic, impersonal, and disconnected from my specific needs. Eventually, I gave up searching and chose to live with the pain.

That experience stayed with me. So when the opportunity came to attend massage school, I took it.

As I entered the field, I began to see why my previous experiences felt so lacking. Too often, I found myself in conversations with other therapists who admitted—sometimes even joked—that they gave the same massage to every client. They relied on their experience and routines, rather than truly listening to the individual in front of them. I knew that wasn’t how healing was supposed to work.

I’d always known self-employment was my goal, but it wasn’t until working in high-volume, corporate-style clinics that I realized my true calling. I wanted to create something different—something intentional, personalized, and deeply human.

In late 2022, I made the decision to step out on my own. Para Health Massage opened its doors in March 2023 with one simple mission: to provide every client with the care, presence, and attention they deserve.

At Para Health, massage isn’t a routine—it’s a relationship. My goal is to help reconnect your body and mind, so you can move through life with less pain and more clarity. Whether you’re carrying stress, injury, or the weight of everyday life, I’m here to help lift what I can, so you can carry the rest with ease.

Client Testimonials

					I highly recommend Daniel if you are looking for deep tissue massage. He has been incredibly skilled in helping me work through some running injuries. I went from not being able to run at all for 3 weeks to completing a marathon a week later. He is a really good listener when you explain your situation and he works really hard to solve the problem in a more systemic way. Im a repeat customer, and I highly recommend this practice.

					This is what i needed, I’ve been having shoulders and back pain and tightness, after not seeing any results with PT for many times thought about giving massage a shot perhaps is helpful, after reading great reviews about Dan I immediately gave him a call and scheduled the first visit and indeed he’s the one I should’ve saved PT’s time and money for his help, my shoulders are much looser now. Thanks Dan

					He’s been a GAME CHANGER! I came to his practice with my achilles hurting just to walk, waking up in that condition. Since working with him, he’s helped to rehab my achilles. I am pain-free upon waking up, and am able to run again, and box my best.💯Besides him helping me heal, Dan is a great guy that has created a practice that is comfortable and professional.
