"Terrel
keeps me injury free and loose,
enabling me to train hard and
effective.
Perhaps, the biggest differences I
have seen since working with Terrel
have been the tremendous gains in
flexibility and recovery. These have
allowed me to maximize my training
and racing.
-Steve Meinelt, 2008 Olympics

"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!"

"Anyone, at
any level, can benefit from the training
advice, personal coaching, active
release techniques and massage therapy
provided by Terrel. I was five weeks
from the USATF Marathon Championship
when suddenly I developed a debilitating
injury - severe pain with every step. Terrel
provided advice for immediate treatment
and scheduled intense massage therapy.
In just two weeks, I was back on the
road and won 3rd place in my age group -
my first USATF medal."

At
Georgetown Sports Massage, we do a series of
assessments looking for Muscle Imbalances,
Inflammation and the True Root Cause of your
pain or condition. After this, you will receive
the best possible massage and leave with a
specific Action Plan tailored to your condition.
Deep Tissue Therapeutic Combination Massage
If you suffer from Back Pain, Sciatica, Head,
Neck of Shoulder Pain or have been Diagnosed by
your Doctor with a specific condition and have
not been able to find relief, we can help.
"I
met Terrel for the first time after I had
won the wheelchair division of the 2007
Twin Cities Marathon. He worked on my very
tired muscles, and I was amazed that the
following day I was able to go home and
get a light workout in, and feel the best
I ever have after such an effort! I had
the best week of post-marathon training
after that, which really helped since the
ING NYC marathon was only four weeks away.
I was so pleased with the results that I
called Terrel up and have been working
with him ever since. I am very excited as
this is the most pain-free I have been in
years, and am looking forward to working
with Terrel as I strive to make the 2008
US Paralympic team in Beijing."

"In
your mid 40's is not easy to take up
a challenge of running distance
again, so besides training hard and
being consistence I needed to have
someone that could help me prevent
injuries that in previous years have
taken me away from my running goals.
This time Terrel help me develop a
massage therapy and active release
techniques treatment program that in
conjunction with my training helped
me to PR in Richmond after running
Chicago. The program that Terrel
developed for me helped me through
my training - preventing injury
rather than treating it."
-Miguel Valero, Maryland Nov 2007 |
"Before
working with Terrel, I wasn't able
to string together more than 3-4
consecutive months of training
without an injury. My body takes a
beating on the sidewalks and trails
of Washington, DC. Terrel is able to
neutralize the wear and tear by
flushing out my legs and keep them
fresh. Working with Terrel on a
weekly basis has kept me healthy and
enabled me to stay on my feet for
the last 12 months."

"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."
-Jack Lundstedt
Amateur Boxer, Aspiring Olympian
"Terrel's
active release and massage
work on me during my
training made a huge
difference in my
performance. It not only
helped in my recovery time
with both my heavy lifting
and sprinting, but he also
aided in my performance with
his active isolated
stretching and massage to
help loosen up my legs to
allow them to propel me to
the next level." |
