Compassionately providing therapeutic massage in the Redmond, WA area since 2006

Therapeutic Massage Sessions Focused on Reducing Pain & Stress

I am David Benoff (he, him), the owner and licensed massage therapist at Redmond Massage for Pain and Stress.

As a permanently disabled bone cancer and PTSD survivor, I understand firsthand how pain and anxiety can unnecessarily undermine the quality of your life.

I focus on working with pain and stress because feeling safe and comfortable in the world begins with feeling safe and comfortable in your body.

What I Offer:

75 minute therapeutic massage sessions focused on reducing pain & stress, for a fee of $150, which is due at the conclusion of your session. This is all inclusive as I do not accept tips.
Strong, capable hands that gently provide as little or as much pressure as you want
A safe and supportive space, where all backgrounds, identities, and cultures are welcome
Respect for you, your schedule, and your budget
Science-based infectious disease control to help keep us both safe whether or not you choose to mask (I wear an N95 mask so you do not have to, and my clinic has a carefully researched air purifier)
Compassion-based science and science-based compassion – because together they are immeasurably more likely to reduce rather than increase unnecessary suffering
A superbill to help you collect reimbursement from your insurance provider

I do not offer spa-style massage, pregnancy massage, sessions other than 75 minutes, insurance billing of any kind (e.g. PIP, L&I).

What My Clients Are Saying

The feedback I get from my clients about their massage experience and results, is exactly what I wish to produce for them through my intention, method, training, and philosophy of therapeutic medical massage.

The sole provider at Redmond Massage for Pain and Stress, David Benoff, has the gift of Mirror Touch. I wanted to communicate extreme empathy through touch and in the course of making this, I learned about Mirror Touch. David shares a deep connection with me, the patient, including my pain and ultimately my relief. I feel his background in engineering and his gift to heal with touch working in synergy to pinpoint and construct the best way to reduce tension and pain. He is the massage therapist I had hoped for but the first I’ve met to offer my sought after relief. The conversations I have with David during our sessions are engaging and make me smile. I would recommend David to my family and friends.

David takes the time to listen to your needs before the massage session and checks in with you afterwards. I feel more balanced, both physically and emotionally, after sessions with David. I travel frequently and now make an appointment when I’m in the Redmond area because his technique really works.

David has an intuitive technique that’s quite different from the other massage therapists I’ve seen over the years. It’s effective, though. I was looking for a new approach to try and help some long-standing issues I’ve had, and David’s approach is certainly that. I’ve noticed steady improvement since I started receiving his services, in addition to the massages being very relaxing; a difficult goal to achieve in a massage that is also therapeutic. And he’s just such a nice guy to boot!Try him out for a few sessions and, like me, you may find yourself pleasantly surprised!

After a massage with David I experience both immediate and ongoing relief. He is not only a gifted massage therapist, but also a healer of body and mind.He brings with him sound knowledge and intuitive skills. He has been an integral part of my recovery from my body’s response to both chronic and acute stress. I am ever so grateful that I have found him.

You’ve never received a proper massage if you haven’t received it from David. I say this as an active and passionate massage therapist myself. Receiving care from David was not only helpful for my own self care, but it was essential. It has taken me a moment to write this because I truly wanted to see how my body was feeling, and I noticed right away that I was more aware of my body and its positioning after this session than I ever have from any other session. I work, workout, and am physically active with my family. The care I put into my body is not taken lightly- and I appreciated that David took the time to make that his priority as well. Not only was I being cared for, I was also experienced a sensation of absolute Joy. The room is filled with natural light and it felt safe and warm. Like I was home. I am so grateful for the talent and knowledge that David has and shares. I cannot recommend him enough! Thank you David!

I have been waiting to write this review until I have had a few sessions with David. Now that I’ve had a dozen or so sessions with him, I can confidently say that he is a gem of a human and a talent at his craft!In my life I’ve had more than one injury from years of sports and I know the difference between Physical Therapy and a massage. For me, David’s knowledge and technique strike that perfect balance between feeling relaxed and real therapy.I’ve gone to him enough that he’s earned my trust and my session’s with him have yet to disappoint. An honest and great person that is a talent at what he does… So happy to have discovered him and his practice!

David is excellent at what he does and it’s been a joy seeing him over the last couple of months. Through his light-heartedness and jokes, you can tell that he genuinely cares for your health and wellbeing.I’m learning more about the tension I’ve been carrying in my body with each session, and I feel that more of that tension is released each time.I highly recommend David!

I have experienced knee pain for over two decades and have sought care in various forms via physical therapy and massage. David has been the most effective treatment to date and I am grateful for the care he has given me. While I originally came in for knee pain, David was able to locate other problem areas through communication and assessment throughout the sessions. He is a thoughtful and professional therapist who genuinely cares about the well being of his clients. I highly recommended him!

It’s an honor and privilege to know such a skilled and wonderful massage therapist like David. When I developed some back pain that was preventing me from enjoying exercising I started looking for a massage therapist to help treat my pain. That’s when I found David’s website and booked a session. If you read his biography on his website, then you understand how unique and great he is. I was amazed at how quickly he was able to relieve the pain and I felt so much better after only one session. During the following sessions he addressed the pain in my leg that also had been bothering me for a long time, and shoulder. I don’t have pain anymore and I’m very happy about that. It’s incredible how skilled and knowledgeable he is. Besides being skilled he has a very compassionate and respectful demeanor towards his clients. Always makes you feel valued and creates such a comfortable, compassionate and nonjudgmental environment for you. I also find his vast knowledge of eastern philosophy fascinating. I learn new and valuable concepts with every session. I truly appreciate you David and am very grateful for your help and healing.

My experience with David has been extraordinarily amazing. I had developed a severe pain in the upper back area, which had me bedridden for almost a month. I tried out physiotherapy, chiropractors, etc but they only had marginal improvements. That’s when I got in touch with David.He asked me a lot of questions about the pain I was going through, so that he could work on the required areas. Right from the first session, I could tell that he was highly experienced, because he knew exactly where the pain points were during the massage. After the session, I could immediately feel the difference, and I was finally able to start sitting / standing without feeling a major amount of discomfort. In the succeeding sessions, I have only gotten better each time, and David was an essential part of the healing journey. Before each session he had a routine of finding out exactly how the pain has progressed since the last session, and working on those specific areas. In all the sessions, he has made me feel valued, and always made sure that I’m comfortable. He has a very calming presence, and he is also great at making interesting conversations during the massage.I can’t recommend him enough to anyone who is dealing with pain and wants a speedy recovery.

David thoughtfully responds to client needs and areas of concern. He takes extra measures to ensure an environment of safety (emotional and physical) and care through listening and inviting client voice and feedback. David’s work is unique in his wide-spread knowledge and understanding of the body and his compassionate approach to wellness. I recommend giving his work a try.

I developed pain in my hips, legs, and back from limping on two bad knees for many years. After replacing both knees, the pain didn’t go away and I couldn’t walk without frequent stops. I tried a couple of massage therapists but the relief didn’t last. I started going to David about two months ago and have seen tremendous improvement. Although I still have some pain, I was able to keep up with my 5 YO grandson for 5 hours at the zoo last week!David had me go over the areas that were causing me pain in our first session. He inquires about my progress and areas of concern at the beginning of each session, and focuses primarily on those areas so that I get maximum relief each session. His style of deep tissue massage really gets to the root of the problem!In addition to be a great massage therapist, David is an interesting and intelligent person. I always enjoy our conversations. His demeanor is very relaxing also!I highly recommend David!

I have had incredible experiences with David. His deep tissue skills are truly impressive, and his soothing presence is a definite bonus. I am a massage therapist, and he is one of the few practitioners I trust to treat me. I can’t recommend him enough!
