Had a deep tissue massage done a few years back , I can honestly say this changed my life for the better. If you are suffering from unexplained depression, I would highly consider this step first.

Camron is extremely professional and very good at what he does. A lot of time and care is spent before your first appointment talking about boundaries, issues, and areas of comfort and discomfort. The office environment is pleasant, and overall it was a great active therapeutic experience that really helped isolate and resolve my acute issues. I look forward to going back.

If you are nervous about getting a massage, this is the place! Camron asks careful question about your needs and preferences, then walks through his practice. He confirms the parts of your body you are comfortable having touched. Then he checks in during the massage. The whole experience was educational, soothing, and healing.

I have been a client of Camron Dunn going two years now. I have tried many massages before. Some of them are either good but too pricey, or affordable but not that good. Only Camron is able to offer affordable rates and at the same time, superb massage. He is able to adjust his technique depending on the client’s need. He also educates me on some questions I have, and how to further resolve some of my body/muscle/joint problems. I can really notice that he has been doing this for many years. I guess we cannot argue with experience. Also, he is very friendly and polite in the way he treats his clients. He also respects one’s boundary. I come to him every month and will continue to do so. One happy customer here!

I had a huge problem with my low back. Just starting out on a long car trip from Seattle to Florida. Cameron got me in the very next day and did absolute wonders on my back. He has a different approach that I have not experienced before but, boy does it work! I highly recommend.

Camron is amazing at what he does. He is very respectful of boundaries and drapage. His technique is different than what you may be use to, but I’ve been going to him for 6 years and he wants you to leave pain free. I do and am pain free for days or even weeks after. I have chronic pain and when I do deep tissue or swedish I leave feeling good, but by the time I get home I’m in pain and could go right back in and get another.

If you are looking for targeted massage to address pain and/or tension, Camron is the LMT for you! He is incredibly knowledgeable about the work and shares that knowledge with clients – constantly communicating and making sure clients are both comfortable and getting what they need out of treatment.

I work in construction and injured my back, I was able to snag a slot to see Cameron the next day. My back hasn’t felt this good in a long time. He is exceptionally accommodating, very professional, and does great work.

Every time I get a massage from Camron, I leave with brand new shoulders! I work an extremely physical job, in the wine cellar, and my body feels wrecked at the end of the week. I’ve been going to see Camron on Saturdays and it’s just the reset that my body needs! I’m a young female and Camron is very respectful with boundaries and there is great communication!

I am in my mid 80s and have had a massage weekly for 30+ years. Not just because it feels good, but because I consider it an essential part of my health maintenance.
Some folks have an aversion to a male MT. One visit with Camron will correct that thinking. He’s the most professional and effective MT I have known.
He includes stretching and pressure which improves substantially and helps maintain flexibility and range of motion. A benefit I’ve never experienced with other Mts.
Like everything else, if you can afford it and don’t do it, your heirs will.

I went to Alderwood Massage for the first time over a year ago to get relief from the pain of repetitive motion caused by my job. Since Mr. Dunn did such a great job working out the knots in my neck and shoulders, I bought a package. Then, whenever I found myself in pain again, I’d schedule another appointment. When I’d used up that package, I bought another to reward myself for having quit smoking.

Besides the muscle stress from my job, I’ve had almost constant pain caused by a pinched nerve in my hip/lower back for years–so long that I had resigned myself to accepting that it was part of aging and something that I’d just have to live with for the rest of my life. I’d tried chiropractic treatments and massage for it before, and had given up hope.

Camron Dunn has such extensive knowledge of the musculoskeletal system, experience, and skill, that yesterday, I experienced the first completely pain-free moment I’ve had in years. At every session, he showed me exercises I could do at home to strengthen my lower back and increase flexibility.

Yesterday, he was able to locate the exact source of the pain immediately. After working on loosening the muscles, he led me through some new stretching exercises. During one of them, I felt the long dislocated joint slip back into place! I was so relieved to experience what it was like to be pain-free again that I started crying–tears of gratitude.

It isn’t only his knowledge and skill, but his ability to listen and genuinely care that made it possible for me to relax enough to be led through these exercises. Making that first appointment at Alderwood Massage was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Now I don’t wait until I’m in excruciating pain before I make an appointment, but am making it a regular habit–like smoking used to be. This habit is much healthier and far more beneficial. I can’t recommend Camron Dunn highly enough. The star system here only goes to five, but I’d give him a six.

Really helped all my pain. Flexible, great price and really took the time to explain everything and made sure I was comfortable.

3/17/2018 I’ve had the opportunity to obtain massage therapy services from a number of professionals, but Cameron takes the cake.  He is skilled, takes the time to understand your needs and is committed to addressing them during the session.  I highly recommend him.

Cameron is professional and has never failed to fix whatever is hurting or aching. I recommend him all the time to friends and family and have never had one person be disappointed. In fact they general say I will definitely be going back.

I don’t normally have back or neck problems but I’d had an issue with my neck and shoulder area which escalated to bad muscle spasms and a lot of pain. I was just hoping to get some temporary relief when I went in to Camron, but he not only relieved almost all my pain but increased my range of movement greatly during the session. By the time I walked out of the office, I was experiencing just some mild discomfort and the pain was gone the next day!

He is very conscious of your physical, mental and emotional comfort during the massage. He doesn’t do anything without checking first to make sure you’re ok with it.

Highly recommended!

Cameron is a true professional. I was struggling from tension headaches and tried a normal massage from somewhere else which didn’t help much. Then in desperation I go to Cameron and he immediately solves the problem and no more headaches. He is very methodical in how he massages and possesses the knowledge to treat your specific problem. The massage is certainly different than I expected and not full of fluff which was exactly what I needed. I highly recommend him!

Was visiting after a long car trip. Had a great massage that targeted exactly the areas I needed. Cameron was professional and did a great job. I wish i lived closer to McMinnville!

I highly recommend Alderwood Massage Therapy for specific issues and also for a great relaxing massage.

I walked in at 7pm on a Wednesday night, with no scheduled time, out of desperation. My lower back had been hurting badly for weeks. It never gave me trouble before.

Cameron gracefully took me in and did magic on my back. Rather than your typical massage, he asked me a lot about what was hurting, where, and what kind of pain I was experiencing. He takes trust and communication very seriously.

He did some stretching technique I’ve never experienced before and in very little time I was totally pain free. One week later and I have had no more pain in my back.

This man really knows what he’s doing and seems to really care about his clients/patients. He is also the most affordable in town. I can’t recommend him enough. Thank you Cameron!

Arrived in McMinnville with terrible hip pain….picked Alderwood at random from google search.

Camron was completely professional and continuously communicated with me to make sure we were on the right track.
He used a combination of resistance, stretching and massage that I found more effective than massage alone.
Facilities are clean and comfortable.
A very important factor for me was that everything was pretty much odor neutral…this has not been the case at other providers and made this experience even better.

The focus was very much on relieving my discomfort….I will be returning.

My husband and I love going to Cameron Dunn for our massage needs. I work at a desk and have a lot of repetitive strain injuries. Cameron is like a magician — he finds the places where my body is out of tune and he actually fixes it. It isn’t like a traditional massage — I don’t go to him for relaxation, though that is often a by-product. He is skilled at diagnosing the ways the body’s overtaxed muscles and strains can put the entire system out of whack and fixing it through a combination of massage and release techniques. Alderwood has a lovely facility in downtown Mac, and Cameron generally has great, relaxing music wafting through the space. He takes his job seriously and is in constant communication with the client about the client’s needs. I highly recommend him

Went again.  Still same great experience.  Camron listens and works exactly on the areas where you are experiencing pain and constantly checks to make sure the pressure is comfortable/appropriate.  I highly recommend.

Camron really cares about your physical well being.  His goal is to get you better.  He takes time to really understand what is going on with you, so he can treat you appropriately.  Very nice office.  Great communication.

The first time I saw Camron, I contacted him on short notice the day I was having a miserable migraine. He was gracious and worked me into his schedule. I was in a lot of pain. His myofascial release and deep tissue techniques are excellent. I would highly recommend him to anyone who suffers from migraines, myofascial pain syndrome, fibromyalgia, the like. He elicits feedback…what works for you, where your sore spots are, how much pressure to use…and really works with you and your body to make you feel better. I have gone back 2 more times and plan to continue to go on a maintenance basis. How much better to see Camron to help me keep my energy and muscles moving than wait until I am miserable with a migraine.

First to Review

Saw an ad in the paper…thought I’d give them a try.
Professional – nice, quiet, private office and treatment room. Demeanor was 100% professional.
Excellent communication – used a pain scale from 1-10 throughout treatment
Therapeutic – focused on my shoulder, which has been giving me some problems lately. warm up, some active resistance, deep tissue.
Thoughtful soothing background music/sounds, a place to hang your clothes. Comfortable temperature.
Thorough – is able to do a general relaxation massage but you get more out of a session by focusing on problem areas
I was sore the next day…but in a GOOD way. It was like I did an entire upper body workout the day before…but I didn’t. End result was decreased pain and increased range of motion.
Conveniently located in the heart of downtown. Entrance is around the corner at the back of the building.
I highly recommend.
