 "Terrel
worked as a massage therapist with
the American University Men's and Women's Track and Cross Country team
for a little more than one year.
During Terrel's time as a therapist,
there was a significant decrease in
muscle related injuries on both the
men's and women's team. In part
because of Terrel's work, the
American University Track
experienced unprecedented success,
resulting in five runners honored
with All-American status. The
American University Track and Cross
Country highly recommends Terrel for
serious athletes attempting to
fulfill their potential."
-Matt Centrowitz, Head Coach,
Track & Cross Country, American
University, 2 time Olympian, former
US 5K record holder |
 "Terrel has been an invaluable
component in my progressing towards
peak racing fitness. He has worked
to master an extremely relevant and
practical combination of therapy
tools from deep tissue and sports
massage to Active Release Techniques™
therapy. Terrel possesses every
skill that an aspiring first-time
marathoner or an established
professional might need to enjoy
injury-free training. DC is lucky to
have him!"

 "I
worked with Terrel in the year leading up
to the 2008 Paralympics in Beijing. He
helped keep me loose and healthy during my
difficult training time, including helping
me recover from back problems caused by my
40-hour-a-week desk job. In particular,
Terrel helped me work through one injury
that had put me out of training for a week
-- and his knowledgeable use of massage
and Active Release Techniques, I believe,
helped me get back into my training much
earlier than I otherwise would have been
able to. Terrel made a real effort to
understand my training and recovery needs,
and tailored his therapy accordingly.
Through my first year of working with
Terrel, I was able to hit Personal Bests
in three separate events -- putting
together my best racing season in at least
five years."

rigors of my hard training. Going to

integral part of my training."

 “Preparation
for ultra-endurance mountain bike
racing, and particularly solo 24
hour racing, requires an enormous
amount of training time on the bike.
Consequently, it is vital to recover
quickly from hard workouts. It is
also important to avoid injuries. My
treatments with Terrel have
drastically reduced my recovery
time, both in between big workouts,
as well as between big races. The
treatments have also addressed and
resolved several minor injuries that
previously would have stayed with me
all season long. Terrel's treatments
have played a major role in my
transition from a top-three finisher
to an all out race winner."

"Terrel Hale's
use of active release therapy has
helped me to remain more flexible
and loose in my training and to
identify and recover from injuries
faster."
"While
in the past my capacity to know and
analyze opponents has afforded me
the opportunity to train with
several World Champions; now, by
working with Terrel, and developing
a more complete knowledge and
understanding of my own body, I
invariably have the tools to help me
take my place among those champions.
Terrel is a member of that rare
breed of therapists who possess the
requisite knowledge and training to
understand both the mental and
physical trials of an elite athlete.
By immersing himself in my
individualized training regiment and
challenging me to assist him in
sculpting a personalized
message-therapy program, Terrel has
exhibited a unique ability to help
me maximize my talent while keeping
my body loose and injury free. With
him in my corner I am confident that
I will attain my goal of becoming a
member of the 2012 U.S. Olympic
Boxing Team. As a trainer/therapist
who measures his success simply by
his ability to assist athletes in
attaining complete body awareness, I
would recommend Terrel to anyone
seeking to reach the fullest measure
of his or her potential."
