Omar’s Story: “I Got My Body Back”

“I just wanted to feel safe.” “My name is Duante […]

“I just wanted to feel safe.”

“My name is Duante Omar Keller-Woods. Most people call me Omar.”

Omar is a former professional baseball player. He retired in 2009, but like a lot of athletes, the game didn’t just leave his body when he stopped playing.

“I was dealing with joint pain… head to toe. My body was starting to break down a little.”

When he first came to Frisco Massage Therapy, he wasn’t just looking for relief. He was looking for someone he could trust.

“I’ve been worked on by a lot of people. But when I met Aqa, I felt safe right away. That mattered to me.”

Before the first session even started, she sat down with him, talked through everything, and made sure he was comfortable.

“It felt warm. It felt like home.”


“I thought I tore something.”

At the time, Omar believed his shoulder was seriously injured.

“I thought I had a rotator cuff tear. I hadn’t thrown a ball in years, and when I tried, I hurt myself.”

Instead of guessing, Aqa evaluated what was really going on.

“She told me, ‘You don’t have a tear. You’ve got buildup and restriction.’”

That changed everything.


“I went back to the field… and threw it home.”

They started working on his shoulder, neck, and overall mobility.

And then something happened that stuck with him.

“I went back out to the baseball field… and threw from left field to home plate.”

If you know baseball, you know what that means.

That’s strength. That’s mobility. That’s confidence coming back.


“My body started working again.”

It wasn’t just his shoulder.

Omar had spent years as a catcher. His body had taken a beating.

“My toes weren’t even flexible anymore. They were stiff all the time.”

Over time, that changed too.

“Now I’ve got that flexibility back.”

As he stayed consistent with sessions and followed the guidance he was given, everything started improving.

Less pain.

More movement.

Better control of his body.

“I started getting healthy again.”


“This isn’t a one-time fix.”

Omar didn’t just come in once and leave.

He committed to the process.

“I’ve been coming here since 2014.”

That’s over a decade of consistent care.

Because when something works, you don’t stop.


“She can go as deep as you need.”

One of the things he values most is how personalized the work is.

“If you need deep work, she can go as hard as you need. If you need stretching and flexibility, she’s got that too.”

It’s not a routine. It’s not a script.

It’s based on what your body actually needs.


“There’s no one better.”

Omar has traveled all over the world.

“I’ve had massages in Dubai, Thailand, Vietnam…”

And still, he keeps coming back here.

“There’s no one better than Frisco Massage Therapy.”

Not just locally.

Anywhere.


“It’s not just Aqa. The whole team is solid.”

Aqa leads the practice, but she’s not the only reason he trusts this place.

“If you can’t get in with her, you’re still good.”

He’s worked with other therapists on the team. His wife has too.

“They’re all great. You won’t miss a beat.”


“They treat you like family.”

This is the part that stands out the most.

Yes, the results matter.

But the experience matters just as much.

“They’re professional, but after a while… they treat you like family.”

That’s why he keeps coming back.

That’s why this place stays top of mind for him.


“At this age, I’ve got to take care of my body.”

“I’m 47 now. I need someone helping me take care of this body.”

That’s the reality for a lot of people.

Whether you’re an athlete or not, your body needs maintenance.

And when you find something that actually works, you stick with it.


Thinking About Trying It?

“If you’ve never had a massage before… try it.”

That’s his advice.

Simple. Honest. Real.
