What Patients are Saying

Tim Darmetko has been working with and instructing me to improve my health and habits. He mainly does CranioSacral therapy for me but performs other massage techniques when necessary. Since Tim has been working with me my posture, diet, circulation and attitude have all improved. I am aware of healthier ways to take care of myself and share these practices with others. Tim encourages me share what I learn with my community. I am a religious sister living with about 15 other sisters. Tim is concerned about the whole person in all aspects. He is aware that we are intricately woven and that one part of us affects our whole being. He is enthusiastic about seeing other people be healthy beings who can live their life to its fullest. He stresses that deep breathing, healthy food, meditation (or prayer in some form), and exercise (movement such as in yoga or tai chi), are the basics to maintaining one’s health. Tim expects us, his clients, to follow through with what we learn to continue progressing so we can maintain our own health. He is willing to recommend a variety of practical ways to help with nutritional and holistic methods. He is also willing to suggest other health professionals when necessary and encourages us to seek quality methods and practices. Tim is very knowledgeable in many health-related aspects because he believes in researching methods and credentials to support what he recommends. Tim cares about his clients welling-being and makes every effort to support us in our effort toward healing.

I was skeptical at first because it’s out of his home, but he really is as amazing as the other reviews say. He always discusses with you regarding your pain in order to problem solve the best treatment for you. Then he helps recommend daily life, natural changes to avoid the issues in the future. The best part is he encourages you to do your own research and ask questions!

Tim’s an incredibly well-read healer that you won’t find a more qualified person anywhere in the state. He doesn’t do the same “routine” massage everyone else does, he talks with you and gets to know YOUR pain and YOUR needs, working specifically to heal YOU. Try his craniosacral therapy once and you will not be disappointed, I can assure you!

Mr. Darmetko takes great care of me.. I’ve been getting regular treatments from him for a few years now & when I’m stressed and tense from a hard work week his massage therapy skills really do relax my muscles and take the tension out of my back, neck and shoulders. I highly recommend Chi Massage Tucson to anyone needing stress relief, back/neck pain relief, tense muscle relief, pretty much anything in that category he does amazingly and effortlessly.
Why Chi Massage is Right for You
Chi Massage is one of Tucson’s leading independent massage therapist, specializing in ancient, proven massage techniques from Asia and Europe. Our unique tailored approach to improving our client’s health and well-being sets us apart, and allows us to maximize the benefits of the massage healing process.
Massage therapy is not new, although its adoption in western culture has lagged behind eastern practice. Fortunately more people now are taking advantage of the incredible therapeutic benefits of massage techniques that have been taught and passed down for many generations.
The owner of Chi Massage, Tim Darmetko, is a certified massage therapist with over 25 years of experience. Tim studied and trained with many of the most respected and learned practitioners including Dr. Myung Chill Kim OMD, Vince Black OMD, Augustine Fong among others. We can put our wealth of knowledge and experience to work for you, quickly and safely.
It’s about you: at Chi Massage, we have one goal—improving your wellness.
We don’t believe in “one size fits all”
Whether you have a recent joint or muscle pain, perhaps a sports injury, a chronic pain that just won’t go away, or simply too much tension and stress that begs for relief, we can help. We pride ourselves in our custom approach to each patient. No “one shoe fits all.” We listen, we ask questions, and then we choose the right therapeutic approach. In particular, we have specific expertise in combining different forms of massage for maximum effect.
Our experience shows us that often times, combining two or more techniques can have a compounded, greater effectiveness than any single approach. And the choice and application of techniques can change over time as our patients respond and improve. There are no age limitations; our clients range from infants to the elderly.
Your experience at Chi Massage will be warm, inviting, and stress free. The home environment is relaxing, not clinical, and it contributes to the positive outcomes from the therapy you will receive. Please give us a call to set up your appointment.
