Massage Therapy With Clinical Precision
I provide:
Therapeutic massage for chronic muscular pain
Relaxation massage to reduce systemic stress
Positional Release to address neuromuscular dysfunction
Targeted treatment based on assessment, not a routine sequence.
Sessions are goal-oriented and adjusted in real time based on how your body is responding to the work.
If your goal is hyper-relaxation then gt booked now because you won’t find a better relaxation massage anywhere.
Who You're Working With
Anthony Gitch is a licensed massage therapist with over 18 years of experience in therapeutic bodywork and nervous system-focused care. He developed the NeuroRelief™ Method after recognizing that many chronic pain patterns aren’t just muscular — they’re driven by an over-activated nervous system that standard massage isn’t developed to treat. His sessions are assessment-based, goal-oriented, and designed to produce results that last.
Common Questions
Is this covered by insurance? Some HSA/FSA accounts cover therapeutic massage. Check with your provider. I do bill insurance directly. I do provide you with a Super bill. I am in network with Aetna an Kieser.
What should I expect in my first session? I start with a brief intake to understand your pain patterns and goals. From there the session is tailored — not a routine sequence.
How is this different from the massage I’ve had before? Most massage follows a set routine. Here, every session is built around what your body is actually doing that day, adjusted in real time based on your response.
How many sessions will I need? That depends on your situation. Many clients notice a meaningful difference in 2–3 sessions. We’ll discuss your goals at your first appointment.

EXCELLENT Based on 19 reviews Posted on Google Tina WortheyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to Anthony for his expertise and stellar teaching skills. The way he presented the CONTROL system provided an understandable framework, coupled with experiential exercises, which, for me, instilled confidence within myself. For me, the lesson was simplify, simplify, simplify - and trust my intuition within the framework of the process. I highly recommend this training to any healthcare worker who wants to add to their toolbox to help people facilitate rapid and sustainable change work.Posted on Google dmitry egerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Information was provided clear and and simple, I got answers to all questions. Thank you so much for this class.Posted on Google Linda CraigTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a hypnosis session with Anthony. He has an amazing gift working with various issues. He gave me tools that I can use daily. He is inspiring and had a clear understanding of what was going on with me and how to help me navigate through my misunderstandings and mistaken beliefs. I highly recommend him for peace of mind.Posted on Google Pamela RehmTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I really enjoyed working with Anthony. He gets to the point, tells you what you need to hear. In the 5 week session, he gave me tools to work with, to achieve the goals I desperately wanted and needed to move forward. I use these tools everyday to help clam my mind and to let myself know there is nothing wrong with me. I highly recommend Anthony GitchPosted on Google Tamara SmithTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Such an amazing healer. I would 100% recommend him and have to others. He also saw my partner and helped his shoulder that had been bothering him for years. I keep going back because it has helped my quality of life so much. I can't recommend him enough. I have a lot of experience with massage and this is the top of what I've had over years.Posted on Google Minela MujdzaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I just had a NeuroRelief Method 60-minute session with Anthony, and it was absolutely incredible. From the moment I walked in, Anthony made me feel comfortable and truly listened to what areas I was struggling with. This wasn’t just a regular massage—it was a deeply therapeutic experience. Anthony’s approach was both calming and precise, targeting areas of tension I didn’t even realize were affecting me. Throughout the session, I could feel layers of stress and tightness melting away. By the end, I not only felt lighter and more relaxed, but I also had noticeably better mobility and a clear sense of relief. I left feeling restored, both physically and mentally. If you’re looking for more than just a massage—something that actually helps reset your body and mind—I can’t recommend Anthony enough.Posted on Google Anna U’RenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Anthony’s Word’s That Heal CE class was informative and experiential. His breadth of expertise informed our conversations, the information shared and ways in which to apply our practical knowledge. I also appreciated Anthony’s great sense of humor and would definitely recommend his classes!Posted on Google Gwen RobertsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a great experience taking this class with Anthony. He brought a great energy to the space and left me feeling excited to continue practicing the techniques we learned together with clientele. There was a great blend of applicable information, conversation, demonstration, and focused discussion. Anthony clearly possesses a strong understanding of LMT scope of practice, and shared this information well, this helped me feel confident in what we were learning and how to apply it well, as I hadn’t had any hypnosis or autogenics trainings prior to this course. I would absolutely recommend taking a class with Anthony!Posted on Google Cassandra SokTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been having gut pain and inflammation since 2008, and have spent thousands trying to cure it. After a few sessions with Anthony, my pain and attacks have stopped and I view my body as an ally again, no longer an enemy. Thanks so much, Anthony!Posted on Google Mark DessauerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Do yourself a favor and train with Anthony! He knows his stuff and is an excellent trainer because of his engaging style, personal energy, and enthusiasm. You’ll be glad you did.
