Michael was amazing! He knew exactly what to do when he saw me walk into his office. He worked on the foot and ankle I injured as well as my entire leg, hip, and all the way up to the top up my rib cage. I felt immediate relief and am more mobile than I have been in months. It is refreshing to find someone who can see how an injury can impact the entire body and knows how to help. I am so thankful that I have found Michael and I am looking forward to my next visit!

Michael Moore is amazing! I have been going to Michael for over 7 years now and he has helped me through many ailments over the years. He is superior at finding and fixing any problem that my body has ever suffered from. I always feel like a new person when I walk out of his office. Thank you Michael for being there for me and all the others that need excellent body work!

Efficient, excellent scheduling system, great customer service, but the real 5 stars goes to Michael Moore, who can read your body like a book. He uses various bodywork modalities, including Active Release Technique, which I hadn't previously heard of. I've been to a lot of doctors, massage therapists, chiropractors, and physical therapists, and this is hands-down the most targeted, effective therapeutic massage I've ever had. Thorough, professional, and much sought after, you'll have to book out a few months but it's worth it.

Unbelievable! Michael Moore is a miracle man! Ever since being referred here by a friend I tell everyone I possibly can you HAVE to come and get a treatment here. It is life changing. Everyone has tight sore muscles. How many hours have you spent stretching to no avail? Alas! No more! Michael turns those tight muscles into butter. The results are absolutely incredible.
And the best part? They last! Book now! I received no compensation for this post either in case you are wondering. I truly want people to know how much better they can feel. I wish I came here before having two knee surgeries. Perhaps they could have been avoided as neither helped anyway! At least I found this place before I had the surgery I was told I needed for plantar faciitis.

Michael is amazing. I've had chronic upper back problems for about 3-4 years now and I have never been able to find someone to pinpoint the areas I really need help with, and he nailed it. He is so kind, energetic and down to earth. And he really knows his stuff. I walked out of his office feeling like a new person. You will not regret seeing him!

As an athlete, I have seen a plethora of doctors, chiropractors, athletic trainers, and Michael Moore is by far the most effective, kind, friendly and commutative of them all. I have been seeing michael for problems of all kinds and there is nothing he can't solve. In addition to this is his flexibility; he will break his own back just to fix yours and is truly the greatest you can find. Thank you for all you do, and see you tomorrow!

OmWord! Michael is AMAZING! I've been in the Health and Fitness field for 32 years. I actively seek Soft Tissue experts because it is undoubtedly a key part of proper Care of Health (mechanically, chemically, emotionally, and energetically). I believe every body should have it regularly. I'd be hard pressed to name one other person who is as skilled as Michael.
I had a nagging shoulder issue that in ONE session he turned the tide on. He works HARD for a person's body. He's a true gift to the world. Any body that get the privilege of experiencing his expertise will be grateful and more vibrant. AND. he has a kind heart and professional but easy and super comfortable manner. Michael, I am so thankful to have found you!

I have had massages from probably a hundred massage therapists all over the world, and Michael Moore is by far the best. In addition to being a bright, lively, and sympathetic person, he is so masterful at his art that it is no exaggeration to consider him the Michael Jordan of massage therapists. Absolutely first rate!

Such a wonderful experience. Michael is warm, caring, incredibly present and clearly committed to really understanding what I was coming in with, and how he could best help me. It took me two months to get in for my first appointment, and I can understand why! Michael comes with an extensive background in massage therapy, and I felt 100% confident that he understood my troubles, and was more than equipped to solve them. My first session was beyond satisfying, and I look forward to continuing with more.

Michael is fantastic in treating his clients through active release, therapeutic massage, stretching or specific bodywork. He's the guy you want on your team! As an active senior suffering from life's accumulated injuries, postural changes, etc. Michael has put me on the road to recovery. He's an obvious life learner and shares his wealth of knowledge. I highly recommend Moore Massage.

Michael Moore is one of the best massage therapists I have ever had. He knows his anatomy and hones in on the areas that need the most work. He uses a variety of techniques, including ART, which make for a massage that can be tailored to individual needs. I cannot recommend him highly enough! He's worth his weight in gold.

For years I've herd about Michael Moore sports recovery. I finally made an appointment. He Attacked my areas of inflammation. His technique was like no other I've experienced. His knowledge of our bodies anatomy helps him get to the bottom of the problem. It's worth buying a package of treatments. Looking forward to returning next week. Thank you Michael

I'd been looking for a massage therapist who specialized in deep tissue/trigger point therapy ever since moving to San Luis in October 2017. Everyone else I tried just gave me a relaxation massage. Nice, but not helpful for the knots in my shoulders or my tight neck. Michael Moore's ACT technique is amazing - best massage I've ever had. He's also super attentive and professional.
Lots of communication about pressure (how much, is this too painful, etc) made me feel like I was in good hands. If you have aches and pains, and relaxation massage isn't cutting it, you need to go see Michael Moore.

Terrific results. Plantar fasciitis was killing me. Michael had a cancellation and I was blessed with an appointment. The relief from his treatment was immediate. I have made great strides to a quick recovery. No excuses for suffering when we have someone of this caliber in our community. Michael's approach is to push a little beyond the comfort level but knowing he won't hurt you. Clean and comfortable space with easy parking too.

I was impressed with Clay's aggressive massage techniques. This Master manipulation of my muscles was just what I needed to help calm them down. I've been searching high and low for a massage therapist that truly gave a deep tissue massage for relief and not just relaxation. I think Clay had the perfect combination. I'll be back!

Both my son and I see Michael on a regular basis.me for CrossFit pains, and old injuries.my son for gymnastics, both for the aches and pains related to the sport, and a preemptive strike against major injury. Michael keeps us both healthy, and I couldn't be more grateful. The Recovery Lounge has all kinds of cool gadgets that really, REALLY help with injury recovery. The lounge and the treatment rooms are spotless and comfortable. I have nothing but positive to say about Michael and his staff.

Michael is the master. I have been a massage addict ever since I've done collegiate sports and long laptop workdays. His ACT method combined with intuitive touch pressure was by far the most skilled massage of my life! The facility in Shell Beach is top notch, including high tech sauna, athletic compression recovery lounge and serene massage spaces! For sports injury or relaxing massage, I highly recommend Michael Moore!

I again was thoroughly impressed with my massage when I went at 38 weeks pregnant! It was just what I needed to help get through that home stretch! I can't wait to go again- need to book another appointment soon! Also, I agree with Johanna B- I got a gift certificate for a friend after my first appointment, and she had no problem using it.

Michael's awesome! I had some knee pains that were getting in the way of my tri training. After 3 months of trying this and that and everything in between, I had a single ART session with Michael and I'm running and cycling pain-free. I'm not entirely sure what he did, but it's incredible. Thanks Michael!

My wife bought me a Groupon for Moore Massage at his Boston location. The studio closed shortly thereafter (before the Groupon expired). There was a message on his website ensuring patrons that their Groupons or gift certificates would be honored at his new location. No mention was made that his new location would be 3000 MILES AWAY. Michael has not responded to any of my emails, and in my opinion, he stole $50 from my wife.
He gets the cash, and we get nothing in return. If Michael returns my emails or sends me a check, I will post again with that information, but for now, I ask that you avoid a business that operates this way.

I've had ART in the past, however Michael blew them out of the water. I 'm not exactly your typical flimsy triathlete and Michael was able to work deep into my tissue. I felt him physically breaking up trigger points throughout my body. If you're an athlete of any kind and are considering trying ART then go with Michael. He is extremely professional as well as informative, constantly giving you feedback on what he is doing.

I recently moved to the area and needed a new massage therapist. My passion/hobby is running races from 13.1 miles to 100 miles. I needed some one who understood my aches and pains and could keep me running despite them. Michael is that man. He understands athletes and can pinpoint issues with amazing perception. He always asks what is bothering me and uses a variety of techniques to get the issues resolved.
His treatments have allowed me to continue to push my training to the limits without nagging injuries stopping me. Michael is not your typical massage guy. He truly has perfected his ART and takes great pride in his work. I would give Michael my highest recommendations.

Michael came highly recommended from other athletes that I Crossfit train with. I now know why he was so highly recommended, he was very thorough on getting to know my past injuries and ailments. I went to him to get my shoulder worked on thinking that was the whole problem, he then found that my neck was the main issue. I have had A.R.T. done in the past but nothing of this caliper.
After one appointment, I have huge improvements! Looking forward to my next appointment. We are fortunate to have such a highly qualified and experienced Massage genius in our area.

I was incredibly fortunate to have found Michael through Yelp. I was experiencing serious back pain and breathing problems, and he helped tremendously - by far the best massage I have ever had. He really took time to speak with me beforehand and learn about my history and current ailments. During the massage, he continued to establish communication at the right times and made feel very relaxed and comfortable.
He could "feel" exactly where work needed to occur, and I felt that the massage was perfectly customized to my personal needs, not at all a "standardized" massage. After the appointment, he gave me great techniques to follow in order to continue to address problem areas. Having played collegiate rugby, surfed for years, and generally beat myself up over time, I walked out of the session feeling like a new man. Michael is a great guy, a consummate professional, and very deserving of my highest recommendations.

Michael Moore is the best massage therapist I have ever been to. He trained at one of the best massage schools in the nation and chooses challenging continuing education programs for himself, that very few massage therapists or physical therapists undergo, so that he can truly help his clients. He is also a good and honorable person. It is obvious that Alexis Y. does not have an actual relationship with Michael as a client because he would never intentionally do something like that. I am sure that it was some kind if miscommunication or misunderstanding.
