“ The body communicates long before pain appears. My role is to listen first so the body is forced to speak louder.”

David Johnson is a Registered Massage Therapist who uses hands-on therapy, fascial work, movement retraining, and performance-focused care. He understands how the body adapts to stress, injury, compensation, and repetitive movement. Through careful assessment and intuitive treatment, he finds not just where it hurts but why.

He focuses on fascia, the connective tissue that affects movement and function. By restoring tissue mobility and easing restrictions, he helps clients perform better, recover faster, prevent injury, relieve pain, and move more comfortably. Treatments are tailored to each person and their goals. Clients describe his work as precise, intuitive, grounding, and transformative.

    I highly recommend David’s services. He’s professional, reliable and has an extensive background working with many top athletes. He was able to quickly determine the course of treatment needed for my sports (triathlon) and was able to help me stay injury free. The treatment also helped me to recover from my hard workouts and enabled me to push my training and racing more! He is super knowledgeable and talented and truly cares about his patients.

    David is amazing! I booked with him on the recommendation of a friend for the sports therapy treatment, and let me tell you... this is the best decision I have made! I have been living with chronic pain in my right shoulder, shooting up to my neck and into my temple, for about 5 years with no relief from classic massages. My first session, David completely erased the pain in my temple, and gave me more movement when turning my neck (I had limited mobility turning right). My second session he worked on it more along with other muscle groups, and I could feel the muscles finally being released. I can't say enough wonderful things about David, just go see him and you will understand!

    I recently started working with David and it has been one of the best decisions I have made for my health and professional career. Not only is he an extremely skilled massage therapist, but he also possesses an abundance of knowledge in strength and conditioning. This combination of expertise enables him to effectively address both my physical and athletic requirements. I also appreciate his personalized approach and attention to detail during each session. This personalized approach to treatment has been essential to my progress, and I feel confident in his ability to help me reach my goals. I feel stronger and more mobile thanks to his expert care. I would highly recommend Transformation Solutions to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and dedicated health care professional, to help them take the next step in their athletic journey.

    This is gonna take a minute. I met David by chance when I booked an emergency massage in February of 2019. Quick back story I was dealing with severe lower back issues that was getting worse and worse. Episodes every month and duration of pain lasting longer than the previous. I was desperate. David asked me what was wrong with me immediately and I told him everything. He said if my issue is what he thinks it is he could fix me. Honestly, I nearly started to cry as I was so desperate and now had some hope. He did warn me that treatment would not be fun and it wasn’t. After 90 minutes(30 of which was not allotted) I was beat up but felt much better. Within a week I was feeling the way I should. As in all things life gets in the way and I had things that took me away from being able to see David. My problems started back but not as bad as before. The knowledge I was given helped to mitigate my episodes. But once I got back to Canada and the initial lockdown was lifted I contacted David right away. One of the first questions I asked my gym was if he still worked there. So for about the last year I have been seeing David regarding my back and as of the last 2 months I have been seeing him as a personal trainer as well. My body feels great and now we are taking things to a new level with my fitness and nutrition. Can’t say enough about him. His knowledge and no nonsense approach is the stuff I need and I believe most would benefit from. Last but not least I am happy to be able to call him my friend

    David is a magician. Simple. He fixed the chronic pain in my shoulder from an injury that was 6 years old and many physio visits later, still wasn’t any better. He also changed my workout game/squat game by working through my tight and damaged hip flexors and quads that were over compensating. His knowledge is unbelievably extensive and his methods work. So grateful 🙌🏻

    You'll never get a better massage! David knows which areas to treat without me having to say. He's healed me and my family members and I am in awe about how knowledgable he is.
