Watts Massage & Bodywork

Julio is a true master of massage. I’ve gone to him multiple times when I’m in need of deep relaxation and relief. He does not disappoint. His unique approach feels like he is treating the entire person - mind, body and spirit!

I found Julio during a time of high stress in my life. He has worked me through my breast cancer journey and recovery. I could not be more pleased. Julio is an incredibly experienced massage therapist who pays attention to the details in your body. No two massages are exactly the same. Every time I leave feeling relaxed, refreshed, and whole. I highly recommend Julio if you are looking for a healing experience along with your massage therapy.

I feel so lucky to have found Julio when I recently moved to to Durham - he is a gifted massage therapist with a special talent for resetting the flow of energy in the body. His space is so warm and inviting and his professionalism is unparalleled - highly recommend!

I have been getting massages for a very long time and Watts massage is one the best I've ever had. I love the focus on bodywork which is helping my body to heal and manage everyday stress. Plus, it's just relaxing. Highly recommend!!

UPDATE 11/10/21: I'm still getting regular massages from Julio at Watts Massage and Bodywork. Massages were something I seriously missed during the pandemic. My knots got married and had baby knots. I love his new space on Guess Rd. The space is warm and friendly, and the location is easy to get to from all over Durham. ORIGINAL: Although I have been getting regular massages for years, I've never had a regular massage therapist. I was sold after a massage with Julio. His technique--working slower rather than deeper is great for anyone who is super sensitive or has a lot of painful trigger points. I have really benefited from regular massages with Julio. Bonus: It is easy to book appointments with him.

I highly recommend Julio. I've been extremely impressed with his expertise, his focus, and his detailed work. My hip pain has improved with each visit, and I look forward to continuing to work with Julio.

If stress is undermining your quality of life, I would highly recommend Julio as your massage therapist. He works with a slow flowing energy that is deeply healing. He addresses physical complaints as he aligns the energy body. I find his techniques very therapeutic and relaxing.

Having lived in Santa Monica CA where getting a massage is a weekly experience, I consider myself a bodywork connoisseur. Thus it was no surprise that it took me three years to find a masseuse who met (actually exceeded) my expectations! Julio is an extraordinary bodywork expert who actually understands why the human body is causing pain. He knows how to get peak performance from every joint, muscle, and nerve. After the second session my migraines were gone. Having suffered from dizziness for three years I had accepted that this was just to be. After five visits Julio has so tamed the menace that I am symptom free most of the time. Julio is a warm and positive person who has a passion for helping people feel their best. I have already given gift certificates to my son (recovering from arm surgery) and my daughter -in law whose lifting of two toddlers has caused back stress. Once they experience Julio's healing hands, they too will be "regulars."
