Cragside Wellness

Darra is a great RMT! Have been going to him for years now and I'm pretty sure my climbing would not be where it is if he weren't helping me with my neck and shoulders, which are often bunged up from my favorite sport. He is also keen to help you understand the imbalances that lead to your problems, so that you are not just treating the symptoms. I have heard from others that he is also great at massages where the goal is general relaxation, and very talented at finding the level of pressure needed.

Darra is a wonderful massage therapist. He’s very passionate about helping people and thinks outside of the box to get to the root of problems. He’s professional and has great communication, highly recommended.

Darra is knowledgeable and effective, especially with acute or nagging injuries. He's a climber, biker, skier, etc, and understands how to help get you back to activities, either through his treatments or by directing self healing. Highly recommend!

I have been seeing Darra for a few months and have definitely seen improvements in both old standing injuries and new ones. I really appreciate that he does a thorough assessment each visit (more than I have experienced elsewhere) and includes recommendations for exercises/stretches at home. Super knowledgeable and happy to teach and explain. Have been highly recommending him to friends!

I have been seeing Darra for 4 years and he gives the best massages. I always look forward to my appointments! I definitely recommend to everyone.

I had one of the best massages of my life with Darra Flanagan at Cragside Wellness. He was so attentive and respectful, while also being very knowledgeable about massage and physiology. Highly recommend !!

Darra is easy-going. His manner is professional and he is good at pinpointing the areas of injury / over-use.He was very communicative and made sure that I was comfortable at each stage of the treatment. I had a treatment with another RMT recently and he didn’t do this and I realized that what I thought was standard in massage therapy (and what I appreciate), was in fact, just Darra!The treatment room was very clean and spacious and all precautions were taken to ensure a safe, comfortable environment. I didn’t feel rushed at the end of the treatment, and Darra even took the time to demonstrate the exercises I needed to do help with my injury.I highly recommend Darra and Craigside Wellness.

Darra is easily one of the best RMTs I have ever used. He takes time to make an assessment of the problems at the beginning of each session and works on these problem areas, using just the right amount of pressure that has a hurts so good" quality. His knowledge and skill is especially impressive considering he is relatively new to the practice. His lovely Irish accent is just a bonus!"

Cragside Wellness is my go-to destination for RMT support. Daragh pairs a caring and professional personality with a strong athletics background to provide exceptional rehab and maintenance care. Cannot recommend enough!
