I’ve had 2 appointments with Shashi for lower back and hip pain, as well as plantar fasciitis. He is very smart about musculature, tendons, etc and spends a lot of time listening and asking questions so he understands what is needed. The massage was great and he gave me additional exercises to do that were more helpful than the ones the physical therapist had given me. He is professional and kind. I plan to schedule with him again.
Shashi enjoys talking. He loves talking about how great he is constantly. Every session he told me how far his clients drive to see him and that he has several celebrity clients and other massage therapists call him for advice. I got tired of hearing how great he is. Also, I didnt like how he talked specifics about all of his clients--everything but their names. And during my last session he was teasing me and kept going on with the teasing when I asked him to stop. A 65-year-old man should know that when a woman asks you to stop teasing should stop, but instead he kept going on and on and on. I ended up leaving there in tears. He was inappropriate and never apologized! Too big of an ego I guess!!!!
Shashi is AMAZING!! His customer service is exceptional. He doesn’t just give you a massage, he also provides you with a detailed explanation on his massage process and answers any questions you may have. I highly recommend him for your next massage.
Shashi is the first person to give a massage that actually works! I do a lot of sports and get sore all the time. This is the first message I ever had that actually makes me feel better. All the other massages have been relaxing but havent produced any results. This actually gets results. I feel so much better and feel long term effects. Shashi is really good at identifying trouble areas and listening to his clients. I highly recommend!
Shashi is the only person I have been to in the Triangle region who is able to perform the deep tissue work that I require and Ive been to many therapists. He is friendly and will spend time beforehand to talk with you about what is bothering you, assess your overall physical condition, and will target the massage to your particular needs. In addition, he will provide any after care instructions for you to continue self work. He is the best Ive found. 5 stars!
Dr Shashi is nothing mess than AMAZING ! He is very informative when it comes to making sure his patients are educated on his services . I personally go for lymphatic drainage massages (post op) and he has made my recovery go by faster than initially intended . I look forward to going and leave feeling much better than I did upon arrival ! He also gave me numerous tips on how to care for myself at home and pain management . I wish every doctor was this awesome with his patients!!! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone seeking medical massages !
Shashi is fantastic! My first visit was due to a hiking injury. He was very truthful and clear about what massage could do to help and what it could not do. He took the time to fully explain everything before, during and after the massage. He offered homework of stretching and self-massage that really helped. One visit was all I needed to put me on the right path toward healing from the injury. Nearly a year later I returned to Shashi for help with osteoarthritis pain. I needed a walking stick for support before my visit. I was able to leave his office without using the stick. I love his no-nonsense approach to his business practice and his same-day appointment policy. If you want a spa experience, go somewhere else. If youre looking for health and healing support from a competent, educated provider, I highly recommend Shashi!
Shashi is an amazing and knowledgeable medical massage therapist. He really listens, hes patient and takes the time to explain why your body is in pain and then discusses how he will be able to help you. I have chronic neck and shoulder pain, degenerative disc disease and now Golfers elbow. Before each session he also discusses your pain level and progress since your last visit. I know this will be a slow process to healing but I love that I have some degree of immediate pain relief after each session. Sometimes I feel decreased pain, sometimes its more flexibility. Be prepared to do homework and its in your best interest to do it! Its for your own health. Im looking forward to getting better with Shashis help.
I had a lower back injury and Shashis work was excellent in decreasing the pain & stiffness I experienced. He explained the what/how/why of his chosen methods of treatment for my specific condition very clearly, which made me feel that I was a part of the healing process instead of being confused about what was happening & why. Very knowledgeable & very communicative. I am moving away unfortunately, so I will not be able to continue treatment here, but this has demonstrated to me the benefits of Medical Massages for healing & I will certainly continue this process as soon as I can. Thank you, Shashi!
Shashi is an amazing person with an amazing personality. He has professional experience in being a Certified Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage Therapist. I’m receiving a Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage due to cosmetic post surgery to help Improve pain, swelling, soreness and scars. After each massage session I seen results drastically, in 4 weeks I went down 2 sizes. Shashi is very passionate in what he does and he cares very much about his clients. He takes the time to explain the procedure of the massage therapy that he’s about to perform and he also explains how the Lymphatic Drainage Massage works to help and heal your body. What’s most important is to make sure after a cosmetic post surgery that you’re not going to any Lymphatic Drainage Massage therapist, but you’re going to a Certified Lymphatic Drainage Massage therapist. Shashi skills and professionalism is outstanding, I promise you will never be disappointed in his work. I recommend Shashi indefinitely to everyone. He’s definitely the best in the triangle area.
I started seeing Shashi a month ago for issues Ive been having with fluid retention and he suggested lymphatic drainage. He took the time to explain the lymphatic system so that I could understand it better prior to ever working on me. He is also teaching me some techniques so that I could continue the work he is doing in between sessions. I highly recommend Shashi, he is kind, very skilled and so knowledgeable. I also appreciate the same day appointments as my prior therapist was booked months in advance.
Dr Shashi has helped my sons recovery from several injuries due to wrestling and football. He explains the anatomy of the muscles and nerves around the painful areas and the techniques he uses to help the tissues to heal. He came highly recommended from a wrestling family friend and we are so glad we got introduced to him!
Shashi was wonderful! I woke up with a very stiff and painful neck on the day that I was supposed to attend a wedding (and I was planning on doing lots of dancing!) Shashi gave me one of the best massages I ever had and my neck felt SO much better. I danced for hours with no problem. Shashi also seemed like a very lovely man and I very much enjoyed talking to him. Thank you, Shashi!
Shashi does a fantastic job. I did something to my shoulder and it was in a lot of pain. Also, my schedule was jam packed. The only time I had was first thing in the morning before going into work. Shashi scheduled me at 7:30am and spent an hour on my shoulders. He worked both shoulders helping to release the tension. By the end of the massage, there was a noticeable difference in my shoulder. Over the subsequent days my shoulder has gotten progressively better. And to top it off, you cant beat his prices.
I have been a client for over two years. I have had the pleasure of having massages all over during my business travel. By far Shashi is the best. His techniques and overall knowledge of the human anatomy is incredible. He has an amazing ability to find the areas requiring the most attention. He is a 10 star therapist!
I started going to Shashi at Wake Medical Massage for persistent pain in my hamstring and upper back due to years of running and lately triathlon training. I had been to a chiropractor, orthopedic, and physical therapy without much success. But Shashi offered a unique approach, being one of only 3 licensed medical massage therapists in the state. He listened very intently to my conditions at our first visit and then explained (with charts) what the underlying issues were and how he planned to address them. He used a combination of sports massage therapy with myofascial release and neuromuscular trigger point therapy for my hip flexors and thoracic intercostal muscles. And after just 3 visits my back issue is almost totally resolved and the hamstring is definitely better. I definitely recommend Shashi to anyone experiencing chronic pain.
My first visit Shashi he did a consultation before starting. He explained the process and asked questions before he performs lymphatic massage drainage. I throughly appreciate the time he took to explain the lymphatic system and how it works and what to expect. He realizes that each case that walks through his door is different. I have been going to Wake Medical Massage since April 2019 for lymphatic massage drainage and I have experience wonderful results. My pain level and my swelling has reduced since receiving my massages from Shashi. I went for a follow up appointment with my doctor and he commented on my results. He stated the person doing my massages is doing a great job and told me to continue. He also asked for Shashi’s contact information, which I happily passed along. I have tried several facilities and Wake Medical Massage is the best thus far. I will continue to go there.
I saw Shashi for issues I kept having after surgery for hip impingement (FAI) and for back pain due to herniated disks. Unlike other massage treatment I had before, his sessions helped me to regain better functionality and overcome some of the pain I was having. He is very knowledgeable and does his work with great professionalism.
I recently had Mommy Makeover( plastic surgery) following my procedure I was interested in having post surgery manual lymph drainage massages. These are not just massages but lymph drainage massages by a Certified Manual Lymph Drainage Therapist. Shashi is a Professional Certified Lymph Drainage Massage Therapist. His lymphatic drainage massages helped me tremendously. As you can see from my photos, the surgery is very hard on your body. The post op care after surgery is very crucial to your healing. On my first visit to Shashi I could barely walk due to swelling, upon leaving I felt so much better. I continued to receive these specialized massages weekly and the progress is significant. Also I followed his instructions at home and made sure not to miss any appointments. Shashi is very professional, caring and honest. I would recommend him over and over. Having the surgery is the easy part, the care you receive after will make you or break you. Please Make sure that Shashi is one of the main people you see following your procedure.
Shashi is fantastic, he has really helped me with my migraine and tension headaches. I used to go to a chiropractor and had been on several different migraine treatments and medications but so far I feel like Shashi has been the best help in terms of relieving my pain. Every time I slept where my head is in an awkward position, I would spend the next few days with mild to migraine type headaches and when I go see Shashi, he would work on my shoulder pain and he would do a customized deep tissue and trigger point therapy. Its really worth seeing Shashi if you have something similar to mine, its a great alternative to all these heavy migraine medication.
Im a 50 year old female with lower back/hip/knee pain. I can tell you with 100% honesty, Shashi knows what hes doing!! Ive been treated by his medical massage and trigger point therapy 4x now, most recently was two days ago after an acute flare-up after moving some heavy items. In that one session he basically fixed me. I am practically pain free, and am able to sleep again....relief!! I actually emailed him the next day to tell him he was a miracle worker, and Im so thankful. Shashi is thorough, professional, and spends plenty of time listening to me, paying attention to whats going on with me. I feel very lucky to have found him. Highly recommend!
Words can not describe how grateful I am to Shashi. For two years, I had lived with chronic and worsening shoulder pain and had sought the opinion of 3 different physicians. They were each unable to diagnose my condition and had no other recommendation beyond physical therapy (which was only marginally effective).I was beginning to lose hope that I would ever regain full function in my shoulder until I went to see Shashi. He was able to properly diagnose my condition (frozen shoulder) in our first session and by our second session, my pain had lessened by 80%. I religiously followed the exercise techniques he told me to do at home. Within a 3 week time frame, Shashi brought me back to a state of health I never thought I would experience again. I felt normal and 100% pain-free.I did not think that I would ever feel normal again, but I do, and it is all thanks to Shashi. He was able to do for me in 2 weeks what no other physician or medical professional had been able to do in 2 years. I cannot thank or recommend him enough.
Shashi helps my back pain so much! I feel like a new person after experiencing his work. Truly a massage master!
When I visited Wake Medical Massage, I was in serious pain that had been slowly developing over a few months, but in the prior two weeks, had worsened to nearly unbearable. I was having muscle and tendon spasms in my right arm, which ended up being the result of muscle tension in my neck, shoulder, and (I forget the name of it). When I spoke to Shashi (sp?) over the phone, he knew immediately what was wrong, and he offered to make himself as available as possible to help me out. Unfortunately, due to my work, I was unable to visit him for almost two weeks.When I finally visited him, he gave me the most professional pre-massage checkup Id ever had. As part of his checkup, he showed me on a chart which muscles (and underlying bones) were most likely causing my pain and went to work on those.He found the muscles and tendons that were irritated and identified and helped me understand what the root cause of my pain was. As it turned out, he was completely correct: he recommended I visit an orthopedic specialist because my problem was based in a skeletal misalignment, something he suspected. He did a wonderful job relieving the tension.Shashi is extremely professional, courteous, knowledgeable, and he did a phenomenal job with me. I am looking forward to future sessions with him.
I highly recommend Shashi for your medical massage needs. Shashi does great work. He knows what he is doing and explains things thoroughly. I began seeing Shashi for my neck, shoulders, back and feet about 4 months ago. I’ve had pain for years that has finally been resolved. I received medical massage therapy customized to integrate myofascial release and trigger point therapy. Shashi was also able to help me with plantar fasciitis pain. Shashi listens to your needs and is the best at what he does. I’m thankful for finally finding the right person to take care of my trigger points and feet.
If you have pain or discomfort I would highly recommend visiting Mr. Shashi. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the muscles and nerves in the body, and clearly communicates what specific nerve or muscle he is going to work on. Every time I have visited Mr Shashi I have left with less pain and more knowledge about what the cause is so I can prevent it from coming back.
I am writing this review for my dad (an older gentleman) who is now a regular patient of Shashi.First and foremost, this is not a place with an assembly line of massages, that only feel good for the moment and yield no real long term results. This is a place for MEDICAL massage therapy and Shashi is a MEDICAL massage therapist, this is critical to understand and research if you are suffering from chronic pain. Shashi has gone through extensive amount of study and training to perform medical massages specifically tailored to each patients unique situation and story in dealing with pain.Shashi is a true healer, and a character you only read about in books. Healing runs in his family as he is the third generation providing medical massages. He also works aside many doctors in the area. From the moment you meet him, he has already began assessing you while carefully listening with undivided attention to the smallest detail regarding your pain and how it has accumulated. He will ask questions upon questions to make sure he has gotten all the details and will only stop when he has gotten all the pieces. He then will explain (not just through words but through diagrams and images) what it actually is that is going on in your body causing pain, why it is going on and how it affects the rest of you. At last, Shashi will explain in detail what he will do, the areas he will work on, what the patient will feel and what the patient needs to do outside of the office (yes you will have homework) to improve his/her condition. All of this, explained in detail before he even touches you. Doctors don’t even do this.And then, the peaceful music turns on and Shashi begins his magic.I initially took my dad in for sciatica and back pain, but Shashi through his medical massage technique was also able to identify tense left hip flexor muscles (primarily the Psoas, Quadratus Lumborum and the iliacus muscles as he explained in medical terms), which were also causing my dad discomfort in intestines, meanwhile other therapists and even doctors have failed to even mention or pick up on. (And we have seen quiet a few of them)After sessions, Shashi will follow up with phone calls asking how you are doing and keeping track of progress. He doesnt just call my dad, he calls me as well to make sure everything has been understood and checks to see if there are any questions while placing heavy importance on my dad’s satisfaction.My dad feels so much better after each session and both him and I are so thankful for Shashi, we have the greatest respect for him and cannot recommend him enough!Thank you Shashi!
I am writing this review after 4 sessions of medical massage therapy by Shashi. I have had severe migraine and tension headaches for more than a year along with back pain. Shashi was able to relieve a lot of my pain by performing myofascial release along with trigger point therapy for my headaches. I have received TMJ, which has further helped my headaches. Shashi was also able to help my back pain. After 4 sessions, I can easily say that my hip flexor pain has become barebale and I cant wait to recieve further pain reduction with additional therapy. I am glad I found Shashi!
I have been many times to Shashi for massages. I am a nurse and spend a lot of long shifts in my feet. Shashi does a wonderful job working on my sore feet, legs, and low back. I love deep tissue massage and I never feel disappointed when I leave. He has always helped me to feel better. I would highly recommend Shashi!
I broke my thumb while spending the summer in NC. The break resulted in inflammation that caused severe thumb/wrist pain and immobility. Hand surgeons, cortisone shots, icing, Prednisone, Ibuprofen, Mobic, regular massage, natural anti-inflammatories--I tried all of these things, but the pain and severely restricted movement continued. When I went to Shashi, I could barely bend my wrist or move my thumb because the inflammation was so severe. After three months of trying everything above with no relief, I was beginning to feel hopeless. However, after three sessions with Shashi doing myofacial release massage, I was able to move my thumb and bend my wrist with little to no pain. Unfortunately, I got food poisoning my last week in town and couldnt make it to my last week of massage therapy, but those three sessions helped more than anything else. Shashi spent a great deal of time actively listening to what happened to cause my problems, and then spent time each session explaining exactly where he thought the problems were coming from and how he planned to address those problems in the treatment session. After the discussion, he gave me exercises to do and explained what their purposes were, then he did an hour-long massage focused on the problem areas, which started at my neck, shoulders, and back, and then moved down to my arm, wrist, and hand. I felt improvement after each treatment, which my doctor unfortunately was unable to accomplish. I would highly recommend Shashi to anyone who has soft tissue problems, especially those that are resistant to traditional medical treatment. A+ experience.
I highly recommend Shashi for medical massage. I’ve had long term issues and after 5 sessions feel tremendously better.My husband after much prodding finally went to see Shashi. My husband does not prefer male massage therapists but has agreed that Shashi is the best. My husband is a tall man who works in conference rooms and flies frequently and has chronic neck and shoulder pain.We will both be long time loyal clients and are grateful to have found Shashi.
I was suffering from back pain and sciatic nerve pain down my leg. I needed a medical massage practitioner to work out the trigger points. At each visit Shashi spent the time to discuss the nature of my problem as it evolved over a couple of weeks. I felt significant improvement. What worked really well for me was to have my chiropractor jot down the affected muscle groups so that Shashi would work out the knots and lesions.
This was my 1st visit to Cary Parkway Massage Therapy and Shashi was absolutely through, answered all questions and talked about specific needs before beginning session. He was addressed specifically my deep tissue tension/stress. 1st first visit but DEFINITELY will not be my last. Looking forward to next appointment. Shashi is open and friendly and makes you feel very comfortable. The best massage in the triangle and ive been here for 20 years.
Shashi is very experienced and knowledgeable. I have been receiving manual lymphatic massages from him and have been pleased with my progress. His prices are awesome and best in the area. Please give him a try. He will not disappoint.
I have suffered from neck stiffness (computer work all day) and TMJ for years. I didn’t realize how uncomfortable I really was until I went to Shashi and he relieved so much of my tension and pain. He will take time to understand and educate you on what is going on with your body. I plan to be a long term client because the relief I get from Shashi and his medical massage is better than anything else I’ve found.
Wake Medical Message is a great place if you want to get rid of your aches and pains Shashi is a great therapist. If you are looking for a spa this is not the place for you. This is medical message. Shashi brings you in you talk in detail about what is going on with you. Then he does his examination. Then the work beings on the areas that you need or that are hurting. This is the only place I ever been to where the therapist actually listens and works on what I really needs to be worked on.Give him a try
I learned so much duringy massage. The first 15 minutes we talked about my pain and he assessed my movement. The massage was broken into two parts, 1 in a chair and 1 on the table. I walked away feeling so much better and learning a lot more about my body. He genuinely cared that I learn and he was great at making sure I was comfortable. I will definitely go back!
First visit and we are sold, I was allowed to stay in the room with my wife, we felt comfortable and relaxed. Shashi is respectful and helpful. He talks about the process as he works on you, pleasant experience. I will add to our review as we continue to visit. Second visit and my wifes frozen shoulder is back to normal function without pain and stiffness. Her recovery was swift and steady. She was told she would need two visits and thats what it took. No upsell, no membership fees, not 8 session program. It was exactly what was promised. We will return if we need additional services, but as for the shoulder...its fixed. My wife is smiling again, thank you thank you thank you!!
Shashi is a phenomenal therapist! He did a fantastic job explaining how pain forms in the body and how massage can help to eleviate that pain. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for massage therapy.
I highly recommend coming here you will not regret it! I initially came in July 2017 with the help of my doctor from Miami (he located this place for me) to have a series of lymphatic massages. After my initial massage, I was able to walk normally and just felt better overall. I was in so much pain and discomfort, after my first massage I felt like a new person. I came back for about 5 massages and noticed each time I felt a significant improvement. I have returned a few days ago for more massages as I had had undergone another procedure. As soon as I landed I called and made an appointment . I was able to be seen when I wanted based on my schedule . I have been to 2 other massage facilities in the area that claim to provide lymphatic massages but they did nothing more than a feather massage, that I could have done myself. Wake Medical Massage is amazing and I will continue to refer people and to go here as well. You will feel amazing !
I am an avid weight lifter (15+ years) and I have been suffering from some very bad tennis elbow for 9 of the last 12 months. It has limited my ability to do a lot of movements and even to pick a weight plate up one handed to load on the bar. Any time I had to turn a door knob , shake hands, or really any type of movement that required grip I couldnt. The pain was incapacitating.I saw orthopedic Doctors, had rehab, dry needling, acupuncture, many massages and nothing eased the pain. I found Wake Medical Massage on-line and read the reviews. I figured it couldnt hurt to give it a try.The first visit I was diagnosed, shown on charts what the issue was and how we would go about treating it. I was given a massage, then given some very detailed stretches to do 3 times a day. After my first appointment my arm was better 5 out of the 7 days.I went back for a follow up the next week and after that massage my arm was better 14 out of 16 days. When I say better, I mean I can lift weights as heavy as I want, do Jui-Jitsu 5 days a week, turn door knobs, shake hands, no issues.I had my 3rd appointment today and I will continue to go when I need tune ups. Shashi cares about your well being and his goal is to help you treat yourself in the long run. I have had over 50 different massage therapist work on me in my life and I can say without a doubt Shashi uses techniques I have never had done before. Whatever they are, they work!
As a mountain biker and motocrosser who trains a lot to ride and compete I often end up with an injury or muscle issue. Shashi knows how really get things loose and working well. Deep tissue work is excellent and thorough and highly recommended.
Shashi is AMAZING. He has a wonderful, calming presence that puts you to ease. I originally came in for TMJ jaw pain, the relief was almost immediate. Definitely one of the best massages Ive had.
My history:L4/L5 herniationL5/S1 herniation that turned into two pieces of the disc breaking off and crushing the sciatic nerve which required surgery to correct.CONSTANT DAILY TIGHTNESS AND ACHE IN SMALL OF BACK. VERY often right upper buttocks sciatic pain.Ive taken every steroid shot (over 12 of them) and drug there is. Even went for botox but never got it. At my whits end I literally typed Male Indian Massage Therapist Raleigh NC into Google and voila... up comes Shashi.The man knows what he is doing, best of Western and Eastern massage techniques. If you are looking for some soft, hot stone, lullaby, whisper, sleepy time massage dont bother calling him. He is the real deal for MEDICAL MASSAGE. Let me translate that for you... its the type of massage that ACTUALLY works for relieving pain because it addresses the issue that is DEEP in the muscle and connective tissue. Now mind you, half the time Shashi is working on me I want to punch him in the stomach. These sessions arent always fun BUT they DO PRODUCE RESULTS and that is what I am after and that is why I keep going back. Obviously they will get better as the muscles release. After 12 years of dealing with this pain Shashi is the only person WHO REALLY LISTENS and listens EVERY time I go and is giving me ongoing positive results.If you have real pain and want to do something about it give him a call. I read these other reviews and thought, OK maybe this guy is the real deal. Those other reviews are just as right as mine... he is the real deal.
I have been suffering for a long time with bulged cervical discs, shoulder dislocations, and ridiculopathy. I went to see Sashi after getting a referral through a friend. Within 2 sessions of getting customized deep tissue / trigger point therapy work for my cervical discs, stiff pectoral and frozen shoulder condition, I have already started to notice a difference. He does not waste anytime and goes right for the source of the problem instead of beating up the messenger (which could be some painful side effect of the problem, that usually goes un-noticed). If you are looking for a non-productive relaxing massage, this is not for you, but if you have serious medical problems that you have been struggling to fix, then absolutely call Wake Medical Massage.
Im an avid bicyclist, and Shashi is one of the few therapists who knows how to really loosen up the IT Bands in my quads. If you are an athlete who needs more than a little help to get the lactic acid out of your muscles and loosen up for your next round of training, this is the place to go.
Go and see Shashi, he is great! He does sports massage therapy integrated with myofascial release and trigger point therapy to relieve hip flexors, hamstrings and psoas .He takes the time to explain things to you. I really enjoyed my services.
Shashi has been extremely helpful in identifying where are my difficulty originates and explaining it to me thoroughly. I highly recommend him for anyone who has a medical concern and wants to find relief, honesty and a direction to take toward health and wellness.
Best in town for lymphatic massage!! If you are looking for someone that will change the way your body feels call wake medical massage. I just had surgery and after the first three massages my swelling went down drastically. I am so grateful to him and I highly recommend his services.
Mr. Shashi is the best. Excellent at what he does. He is one of very few people in the are that provides Certified Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD) services. He was a life saver for me. I am so greatful to have found him after my surgery.
I have been going to Shashi Lodhia for about 2 months now, and in this time period he has made my chronic neck symptoms that I had for 10 years completely better,where other doctors from chiropractors, neurologists,orthopedics have done nothing to very little. I highly recomend his service, hes very professional, knowlegeable, and he will let you know up front if he can or cant help you with your medical problem...
If you are interested in manual lymphatic drainage / medical massage therapy this is the place for you. Shasi is very pleasant and extremely informative. The atmosphere is relaxing. I have been there approximately 6 times since August. I have enjoyed each experience and will continue to be a client.
My initial visit, I came to see him because I was dealing with some shoulder tightness and neck pain and he immediately fixed me and took me through all ranges of motion and showed me what to do!I then go back 2 months later for a rotator cuff and pec muscle strain and tenderness and he amazingly broke down the anatomy for everything! Then worked on my back and my intercostal muscles and when our session ended, I was healed!!!!! 10 stars if I could give!!! Best medical massage therapist not just in town; ever!!!! I don’t refer anyone else!!
There is no one better than Shashi for lymphatic drainage massage. Very important to have after having any kind of surgical procedure to the body.
I was suffering for over a year from hip pain in my right hip as well as from the beginnings of sciatica in my right leg, probably brought on, I thought, by a ruptured disc in my lower back which I have had for 30 years. I found Mr. Lhodia on a Google search for a medical masseur, which I wanted to try before resorting to an orthopedist. I met with Mr. Lhodia and explained my symptoms. He listened and asked excellent questions and showed me on a chart of the bodys muscles what he thought was the problem: tense muscles in poor alignment on my right side. I received an hour and one-half massage and the massage was terrific with Mr. Lhodia explaining what he was doing at each step. At the end, my pain was gone and has not returned in over a year. I have returned twice for a full body massage which included attention to the right hip and leg. Mr. Lhodia is a terrific masseur, even a magician with his technique. And his prices are extremely reasonable. I have had many professional massages in my 69 years, but never one with the excellent results I have received from Mr. Lhodia. It may be in his genes as both his parents were also massage therapists, and he has a true passion for the healing powers of massage and a deep knowledge of the body and its workings. I give him my highest recommendation.
Mr. Lodhia is a true professional. This is not a cookie cutter spa rub but a massage geared to your specific needs. The therapist goes to great lengths to understand your needs so all issues can be addressed. First rate!
My experience was surely amazing. Before my treatment my sciatica pain was unbearable. I was unable to walk straight and could not sleep in a bed. But just after two treatments everything was set back in order. No more sciatica pain! Please what ever your pain is please give this doctor a try you wont regret it!!!
I wish I could leave no stars! The Dr. was the rudest ever! 1st I called to schedule an appointment for a lymphatic massage because I had surgery. I was scheduling an appointment for myself and he was rude the entire time bragging how he was the only Dr. in Wake County that could perform this massage. I was going to treat the person that was driving me to a regular massage, he refused to schedule her through me even though I was paying and was just overall he was rude. He finally told me he could see me at 10 and to call back in a few min because he was driving and he would see if he could take her at 11. I showered got dress and called back and go figure, he was screening his call and would not answer, I called him from a different number he answered and when he realized it was me, he said he made a mistake and didnt realize he was booked! I asked so when can I come in, can you just schedule me for another day and time, he refused and kept telling me how busy he was because he worked with doctors and I would have to call back tomorrow. This man was rude, a liar, cocky, and overall just unprofessional. I even asked him why he was giving me a hard time because Im recovering from surgery and its been very hard and emotional. Save your money! This man obviously doesnt need nor want business! The rudest ever!
Shashi is amazing! The education you receive is so informative and he is great at what he does!
I’ve had 4 sessions with Mr. Shashi, he’s great at what he does. Helped me a whole lot with manual lymphatic drainage after surgery. Very sweet and caring therapist!
Certified MLD! A rarity in this area, and Sashi has been caring , compassionate and a great listener to my needs after having medial thigh lift that caused much swelling . Manual lymph drainage has decreased my swelling and shortened my recovery time. Anyone having PS, don’t be fooled by lymphatic massages - it isn’t the same as MLD.
I have issues with nerves within my back, neck and shoulder area, Dr. Shashi was very knowledgeable and truly cared about my problems. I would highly recommend.
Great place for massage. Professional service. Excellent value.
This person was very rude. He also told me he wasnt going to give me an invoice or a receipt of his massage services bc he didnt wanted me to use that information to file a reimbursement with my insurance (even when my insurance told me I could file for a reimbursement myself, i jist needed the payment receipt) or to do my taxes...Whats going on with this guy?? Not recommended
If sore muscles are draining your energy, strength, and joy of life, set up an appointment now with Shashi. It will help so much more than you think.
After just one session I saw immediate results. Truly amazing, very professional and very skilled with Manual Lymphatic Massages. When I return to the RDU area I will definitely be utilizing this service again. A must try! Best in the triangle area!!!!
Everything was explained to me before and after my session, including why my shoulders were contributing to finger numbness. Ive never had such an effective massage for pain. I highly recommend Wake Medical Massage.
Not at all your typical massage. Mr. Shashi is very knowledgeable. Amazing on dealing with the source of pain.
Ahhh, no. This is not a professional establishment. Go at your own risk. Highlights:1.) Office building that does not appear to have handicap access (not sure on this one)2.) His place of business is a room (which was locked upon my arrival)3.) Room is dilapidated: pop up ceiling was all over the place, dust, AC unit out of wall held up by duct tape4.) Asked him to turn down the air because it was freezing. his response and I quote, the temperature in the room has to be fit so I can work. It was freezing.All the positive reviews on google are dubious.
Shashi is very professional, he loves what he do!!! Definitely I recommend him! Thank you
The only therapy that helps lessens the pain from TMJ over time.
Extremely helpful in relieving the strain and pain on the left shoulder/neck/back area.
I feel like a different person when I leave...only positive feedback
Best in Raleigh!
