About

Dominique A. Lopez, LMT

Dominique Lopez of Phoenix Therapy is a Licensed Massage Therapist who has worked closely with Physical Therapists and Occupational Therapists in a rehabilitation environment since 1992.  He chose this field because he knew from an early age that he wanted to help people not only feel better but get better.   His training has helped with the ability to assess a client’s pain pattern and offer therapeutic techniques which will have more of a corrective action then regular massage therapy. 

By using myofascial release combined with therapeutic massage, each session is individually tailored to correct muscular imbalances which alter one’s normal movement patterns and cause movement compensations over time. The area of pain is often not the source of the problem which makes each session a whole-person experience.

Prior to beginning Phoenix Therapy, Dominique co-founded Ultimate Physical Therapy in White Plains, NY in 2002 and worked in all aspects of operations.  After graduating from SUNY Buffalo, he was trained professionally at the Swedish Institute, College of Health Studies and received his certificate from Cornell University in Nutrition and Healthy Living.  In the fall of 2004, Dominique began working with SUNY Purchase College providing therapeutic massage to the conservatory of dance.  He currently has expanded his role on campus to the entire student body but still works extremely close to the dance program.
