Tim Hackett, LMBT, NC License #3012
I hold certification as a SCUBA Diver and have completed numerous Tandem Skydives. As a passionate outdoors enthusiast, I am committed to hiking every waterfall in western NC. These pursuits are just a couple of the reasons why I chose to make Asheville my home.
As a state-licensed and Certified Massage Therapist, I specialize in NeuroMuscular Reprogramming, an advanced technique grounded in precise muscle testing. I can meticulously identify weakened or inhibited muscles through the NMR protocol, pinpointing imbalances that may lead to restricted motion, impairment, and chronic pain.
Leveraging over two decades of private practice experience, my expertise is correcting these imbalances through a comprehensive approach that includes Sports Massage, Myofascial Release, Trigger Point therapy, Swedish massage, Cupping, and Kinesio Taping. The primary objective of my practice is to enhance healthy, pain-free movement.
“After years of suffering from stress-related back pain, Tim has made that pain disappear. Since I sit at the computer all day long, he has helped me work on posture and exercises to mitigate strain and pain related to my work environment. Additionally, whenever any of my muscles become tight, his careful attention to that particular area will alleviate that tightness.
Tim listens to my physical complaints and is very responsive to my particular needs and concerns.”
“I came to Tim for the first time with a very painful and debilitating thigh muscle injury incurred while training for the sport of Olympic-style weightlifting. He saw me within hours and his weekly treatments had me training within a couple of days and fully recovered and better than ever in less than three weeks. This is a phenomenal recovery rate for a 53-year-old weightlifter.
Additionally, his therapy cut my workout recovery time in half.”
“I was sent to Tim Hackett by my chiropractor. I had suffered severe tightening of muscles in my thigh, caused by sitting at a computer for hours at a time, which resulted in great pain in my knees and back. Tim understood the situation immediately, and by supplementing chiropractic work with deep-tissue massage therapy, we were able to reverse the damage I had done. Tim also showed me stretching exercises and recommended software that reminds me to take stretch breaks every hour.
As a result, I have not had a recurrence of this painful situation. I continue to see Tim frequently for maintenance and because I love the massages!”
