Personal Message from Hal Scarbrough, Founder

Hi, I’m Hal Scarbrough, a licensed massage therapist, former licensed massage therapy instructor and founder of Houston Medical Massage. I am also a consumer of massage services.

Houston Medical Massage was founded to address what I felt was a need for highly skilled massage therapists specializing in therapeutic (medical massage) techniques. I was suffering with muscle pain and unable to find someone with an in-depth knowledge of anatomy and physiology. I wanted someone with the ability to identify and correct muscle imbalances.

Here at Houston Medical Massage we do what we do because it’s our passion. We use proven therapeutic massage techniques, active isolated stretching and vibration therapy to stop your pain. We then empower you take take control of your recovery through education. Understanding the cause of the injury is crucial if you want to recover and remain injury free.

I want to invite you to make Houston Medical Massage your choice for therapeutic massage.
