Bob Gazso ART/Clinical Massage Therapist

I was diagnosed with a RSI chronic pain injury 1.5 years ago from typing/​working too much and Bob has significantly helped me recover in the past 2 months when 5 other therapists and hand surgery specialists couldn’t with a much longer timespan. Bob takes into account the central nervous system, which many therapists do not. The other therapists focus only on strength training or stretching when it’s so much more complicated than that. I’m still on the way to full recovery, but I now have hope that I didn’t have before seeing Bob. Bob is thorough and technical with his recovery method, and everyone should go and see him! He’s one of the top body practitioners in the Bay Area!

I first met Bob at work when he taught Massage Therapy years ago. He’s a person who is very reliable, level headed, and all around great to know. Only recently, I badly sprained my right hand and asked him for help. I am by nature skeptical of the new-​agey lingo that I’ve heard from many PTs and massage therapists. However, Bob CLEARLY knows the anatomy, kineseology, and neural science basis behind this work. He knows the established science, and where an intuitive understanding of the body and mind can further assist the client.
I felt MUCH better after he was done. He was able to loosen up the kinks and relieve the pain that I was feeling in my wrist and range of motion. As with all healthful practice, it’s on me to continue good habits and continue to monitor my condition moving forward. Thanks Bob!

Working with Bob, I solved one of my most intractable physical ailments in a matter of hours. A high school lifting injury had left my left shoulder & shoulder blade with seriously challenged movement patterns that significantly limited my strength and range of motion. Through a short series of sessions we eliminated the majority of the range of motion constraints and drastically improved my strength.
With continued work we have uncovered other areas of my body that could be improved and I continue to regularly work with him to achieve these strength gains and eliminate pain or chronic stiffness. Without hesitation I would strongly recommend you work with Bob to solve any number of new and old injuries that limits your motion, strength, or causes you pain. It is truly miraculous at times how simply Bob is able to remove a stubborn pain, a physical limitation, or a hidden inhibitor to your body’s strength and unleash a newer, more capable you. This is the real deal, check him out!

My shoulder was clicking, popping, and occasionally painful when overhead. Bob was able to quickly solve the problem and assign me work to do at home to prevent it from coming back. He knows way more than your typical massage therapist, I would see him first for any sort of muscular or joint pain.
