Drew Hodson LMT
Founder of Next Level Muscle Therapy
"I was in a terrible car accident in 1994 and my quality of life changed overnight and at one point, I thought I’d never be the person I was prior to the accident. I wanted to be able to still play sports and function without pain or limitations so I went on the search for treatment that extended beyond conventional treatment and pain medications and the result, I have been pain free for the past 20 years and I’ve never looked back."
"Along my journey to recovery, I discovered muscle recovery and massage therapy techniques that I wasn’t offered by my primary care team and the result is 20 years in the making…Next Level Muscle Therapy. In working with my patients over the past 20 years, I’ve learned that true wellness is not just treatment of an injury, it’s also prevention of injury and even performance in sports as well as performance as a functioning person in our everyday lifestyle activities. I took the experience I had with recovery and developed a passion that led me to being able to work with some of the best therapists in the world and I’ve spent the last 20 years sharing what I’ve learned and building my practice working with various massage techniques, body work skills, treatments and therapies and sports massage and the impact I’ve made over the years has changed the lives of my patients as well as mine.”

cupping therapy
Cupping therapy is a form of alternative medicine in which cups are placed on the skin to create suction. The cups can be made of glass, silicone, or other materials.
