The Body Mechanic Difference: Personalized Massage Therapy That Works

Finding the right massage therapist can feel like a gamble. Chain spas may offer convenience, but what you gain in scheduling flexibility, you often lose in personalized care. At The Body Mechanic in Florence, SC, we do things differently.

Owner and therapist Chad Patterson is committed to offering a high-quality, customized massage experience for every client. That starts before you even get on the table—with a one-on-one consultation where we discuss your lifestyle, pain points, activity level, and goals. Your massage is tailored to your body, not a pre-set routine.

As a certified sports massage therapist with 750+ hours of education—including advanced kinesiology training—Chad has the knowledge to assess posture, gait, muscle imbalances, and joint function. Whether you’re dealing with shoulder tension, hip pain, or hamstring tightness, he has the tools to target the root cause—not just the symptoms.

Clients range from teenage athletes to seniors who love pickleball, and many return monthly thanks to our affordable massage memberships and personalized care. Open evenings and weekends, The Body Mechanic is proud to serve those who can’t squeeze in a massage during 9-to-5 hours.

If you’re tired of feeling like a number, try a massage where your body is the blueprint. Rebuild. Recover. Recharge—with The Body Mechanic.
