I really loved my experience here! David is a very welcoming and kind person. I was a little nervous because I never had a massage before, but he made me feel relaxed and at ease. The massage itself was 90min., incorporated some assisted yoga poses (supine spinal twist, child's pose, ect), and was done on a heated pad on the floor. The atmosphere of the studio was very gentle and naturalistic. I'd definitely like to go back, and will recommend him to others as well!

I have really enjoyed working with David. I have deep knots and persistent back and hip issues. From the moment I stepped into the calm space, I felt a sense of peace and authenticity that one rarely encounters. David listens to your issues and has very helpful suggestions. David is clearly a master of this ancient art, which is rooted in Ayurveda and Yogic Sciences. He offers a balanced and powerful massage and stretch, combining the best elements of massage, yoga, meditation, physical therapy, osteopathy, and focus. Each session is adaptive to my specific needs. After each session, I noticed a considerable improvement in my range of motion, breathing and very calm sense of mind. David's Vedic Thai Massage is worth every penny. Thank you, David, for sharing your gift and It is much appreciated!

After being diagnosed with hip issues it was suggested that I have a replacement. I felt there were other options out there and it was not willing to have surgery right away. I looked for other options and alternatives and then threw some Internet search stumbled on Vedic Thai Yoga Massage. My first session was David was what I had been looking for. He was able to move and massage my hips, legs, and back to ease my pain. He is very good at diagnosing the situation and explains everything in detail. David is excellent at His craft . Thank you 🙏 David, I want to thank you for your time and talent. I am feel so much better since I have started with you. You have a way of explaining before the session that makes easy to understand. Your studio in old Louisville is very inviting..... I especially like the plants and soft music. Most important is how clean and fresh it is. I always feel so much better after and like getting sent home with homework.... David also has a group yoga class on the practice of Yin yoga. He also has gym training which I have taken advantage of lately. Very pleased and feeling better Many thanks🙏

Update: I would get a massage here everyday if I could. Always something new and needed each session. - I'm a young professional that has to work at a computer often. I get a massage once a year and am curious about holistic medicine. David did a great job and the session was very informative. Would recommend to anyone.

David brings the embodied inner physician with him into every session. This is holistic healthcare at its finest and well beyond what most people can imagine what bodywork is capable of. I have experienced so much lasting positive change in my body and health which has translated into lasting positive effects in my overall life. As someone recovering from symptoms associated with complex spicy deja vu, ptsd and other trauma related issues, I can say David is as safe and present as they come. He is informed and sensitive to these delicate issues helping me to recover in ways I had only dreamed were possible. I am leaps and bounds where I began just a few months ago. As a bodyworker myself of 20 years, David is an inspiration. He has brought me back to that beginners mind and excitement for the possibilities of what this work is capable of. His knowledge, experience, practice and patience makes him an incredible teacher and guide in addition to being a wonderful friend, neighbor and community member in this world, to myself and many more.

I had never had Vedic Thai massage before. I stumbled on David’s practice during a google search and was intrigued. I had my first massage with David today and I was blown away by how relaxing it was and how much it relieved my pain. It also helped me feel more connected to my body and my breath, something I’ve felt disconnected from this past year. David was able to hone in on the spots that needed attention (even some that I didn’t know about) and get them moving again. I would highly recommend David’s practice to everyone, especially to those who are looking to try new massage modalities that help heal the entire body. I look forward to future sessions to build on the progress we made today and restore my body to more normal, healthy movement!

**Update** I didn't think it could get better but David's added a yoga swing to the practice!! It does all the things an inversion table can do (+more!) but without being stuck alone upside down and unable to call the fire department because you left your phone in the bathroom. (That never happened and if you say it did I'll deny it.) **Original review** I've had a lot of massages over the years and David takes it to a whole new level. I was looking for myofascial release; this place popped up in a Google search and I decided to give it a try. So glad! >16 years into a desk job and my entire body gets so stiff and creaky. The Thai yoga massage techniques David uses are so effective at releasing the tension and loosening all the creaky, stuck joints throughout my body. After a session I notice the difference in my posture and have a fantastic overall feeling of relaxation and release. The increased flexibility and range of motion I get from this practice also helps in my regular fitness and bouldering routines. TRY IT!

David is amazing. I’ve been going to him for about a year and the improvements in range of motion and decrease in pain levels is incredible. This is nothing like typical massage or chiropractic treatments, this is lasting improvement. Highly recommend.

David is an amazing therapist! I've had chronic shoulder and neck issues for over 10 years and get regular massage (after trying PT, acupuncture, chiro, and many doctors), but never Thai yoga massage. I've been to Vedic Thai Yoga Massage 3 times now because the results have exceeded expectations! Highly recommend. David is intuitive and takes you in different directions each time, always with great results toward what your body needs.

David doesn’t do you ordinary massage. The amount of effort and time he puts in goes above and beyond. The techniques used seem to be the exact ones I need and are different every session.

I had my first Vedic Thai yoga massage with David. I highly recommend trying this if you have chronic pain due to body alignment issues. Its been a long time since I’ve felt this centered and at one with my body. Really great for addressing problems from repetitive stress injuries, and degenerative neck disorder. Much better than going to a chiropractor. It’s a gentler, and more holistic treatment. He also holds group yoga classes on a donation basis on Wednesdays.

I’m a 36 yr old female and am so thankful for Vedic Thai Yoga Massage. David is extremely professional and knowledgeable. The office space is calming, clean, and informative. David answered all of my questions and took time to fully understand my issues and goals for treatment during the initial consultation. I had been dealing with bursitis in the left hip for the past month and painful foot seizures for two years. After a few treatments, I have already experienced tremendous relief and functionality improvement in my legs, feet, circulation and overall general health. I highly recommend Vedic Thai Yoga Massage. I’m so thankful for this place!

David is an amazing person who tends to your needs. He really goes above and beyond! I can't recommend Vedic Thai Yoga Massage enough!

I had a fantastic session with David. He is very skilled, listens to your body and helps it unwind and flow with ease.

So I recently tried Vedic Thai Massage as one of my first forays into eastern healing arts with David in his cozy studio located in Saint Matthews. I have long been interested in yoga but for one reason or another have not made a practice of it in any way, so I figured it would give Vedic yoga (a friend termed it lazy yoga to me, and God I've been known to be lazy as hell) a go after having received my first traditional massage around a month ago. So I came to David not quite knowing what to expect out of the experience. But he like the consummate professional that he is, was able to put me at ease and explain what Thai bodywork is all about and how I might be able to benefit from it. Ineffable is a word typically a quality of mystical experiences and in searching for words to describe my feelings during and after the massage it truly is quite difficult. I would however describe my first session in Thai Massage as a mystical experience. To say that I was moved by David would be true in two ways. David told me before the session that it might feel as if multiple people were in the room manipulating my body, moving my joints, stretching my muscles and tendons... and it did because the man was using all four limbs concurrently, truly impressive. David stretched parts of my body that I didn't know existed before this session, that is, I never paid attention to them! Specifically some of the support muscles located in my ankles were worked at angles that were moderately uncomfortable to feel moved, but this was truly because of inactivity and made me realize quite a few things about my own inattention to my health. I didn't focus on my breath as much as I should have during my first session, but I do know that some of the deep breathing and specifically breathing through my nose enhanced the mystical nature of the 90 min session and left me feeling absolutely incredible, light, and content with my existence. David finished the session with some wonderfully scented anointing oil that he applied whilst massaging my face with special attention to my third eye. This left me feeling absolutely, positively rejuvenated and quite frankly changed. After our session I then spoke with David about a whole myriad of topics related to health and wellness and found him to be so incredibly educated and insightful. I can highly recommend him to anyone looking to explore Thai bodywork and I look forward to booking with him again soon.

Best massage of my life hands down. Recommended highly. Dave is a master at the craft of body,mind& spiritual healing. Please do yourself a favor and book now🙏

David is simply amazing! He is a master of this field not only in conversation before and after our sessions but also in practice. He listens to your body and provides the relief and relaxation it needs. I always look forward to our sessions (over a year in) and never want them to end. Easy 5 stars for an even more incredible human!!

Having been attending Vedic for the last year I can honestly say that you won’t get a better massage. With the correct pressure David knows exactly the right areas to work on. I am continuously impressed by the professional and attentive care he provides each time I go. Needless to say I would highly recommend David

First session with David ! I must say— he exceeded my expectations. He is professional and communicative during the process. I felt in peace with his space. With my line of work I used to feel sleepy from working long hours of shifts. Now, I felt rejuvenated. Thank you so much again for a life changing experience will definitely be back soon.

David is so amazing! He knows exactly what he is doing. You will feel great once he is done. I highly recommend!
