Daniel Cashman, EAMP, MS(AOM), NCCAOM Dipl. Ac

I have worked with Dennis a number of different times, most recently as part of the Northwest Masters of the Martial Arts where he taught principles and techniques from Bagua (an internal martial art). He provided high quality information on the tactics and training methods to a diverse body of students with no background in his art. The students left with identifiable skills and a much better understanding of the martial arts in general.

      In addition to being the Bagua Zhang Instructor at MaceMartialArts, I am also a Licensed Massage Therapist, available by request at Be Well Massage Spa in Mukilteo, WA. Over the years, I have discovered how incorporating Bagua Zhang principles into my massage therapy practice has helped enhance effective treatment work, as well as having a more rejuvenating experience both for my clients and myself. My Bodywork Style: my goal is to connect with each client’s particular needs to help support your process of healing and relaxation. My approach and modalities of practice integrates a seamless flow of Myofascial Release, Swedish Massage, Lomi-Lomi, Tui-Na, Deep-Tissue, Thai and Sports Massage, so that I can help release deeper tension and pain in a way that feels both soothing and rejuvenating. I completed my massage therapy training with honors at Everest College – Seattle in 2010, specializing in Sports Massage. More recently, I expanded my healthcare training by completing an intensive 100 CEU medical massage course, Advanced Pain Management Therapies, from Living Metta (February through June, 2022). If you need to relax and ease some pain, request Dennis Mace when you schedule your appointment with me by contacting the Be Well Massage Spa 8229 44th Ave W Unit F Mukilteo, WA 98275 United States To schedule an appointment for a massage with me, please call or text the Be Well Massage Spa at +1 (425) 381-3866.
