A new luxury sports medicine studio will massage away clients' aches and pains with a good CBD-oil rubdown and other innovative treatments. Dynamic Sports Medicine, a wellness center from husband-and-wife Drs. Brian and Jinna Mann, has opened at 13617 Inwood Rd., Ste. 210, to offer the latest in cutting-edge "recovery," including the trendy, cannabis oil.

For those still fuzzy on the headline-grabbing substance, CBD — short for cannabidiol — is a naturally occurring compound in hemp. Hemp and marijuana come from the same plant, but, whereas hemp is high in CBD, which has anti-inflammatory properties, marijuana is higher in tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, which elicits feelings of euphoria. CBD is combined with an oil such as coconut or hemp oil for use in things like massages.

CBD does not get you high, but fans — like the founders of the new North Dallas studio — swear by its powers to relax and soothe just about anyone.

“CBD massages are one small part of the abundant and unique treatments offered — we have access to some of the most innovative tools and treatments in the country, which helps us treat every client like a professional athlete,” Brian Mann says.

You can't just walk in for a CBD massage, though. New clients would need to do a full history and examination with one of the providers first, the owners say.

In addition to CBD massages, the studio offers a new age-y treatment called "Myo Acoustic Compression Therapy," incorporating a machine that uses sound wave therapy to go where massaging hands can't reach. "The sound waves penetrate deep and treat areas that experienced any trauma or inflammation," they explain.

Also on the treatment menu: cupping, sports acupuncture, recovery boots, chiropractic services, taping, and more.

“From some of Dallas’ top fitness instructors to Fortune 500 executives who spend 90 percent of the year on the road, our trainers are able to customize plans that treat the full range of physical ailments,” the Manns say in the release. "From spinning to Pilates to HIIT classes, everyone needs to recover in an effort to achieve wellness goals. Clients are able to recover just as professional athletes do."

Dynamic Sports Medicine was founded in 2016 by a Doctor of Chiropractic, and there are two locations in Austin. According to their website, the center treats a variety of sports injuries, from neck to ankles. A DSM "wall of fame" on their website includes Olympic swimmers, NFL players, track-and-field athletes, and more.

They also offer specialized evaluation and treatment for youth athletes.

The new studio, near the Galleria, is the company's first location in Dallas. Hours are 8 am to 6 pm Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday; 7 am to 2 pm Wednesday and Friday; closed Saturday and Sunday.

Welcome to Texas

Texas remains No. 1 draw for movers despite slowing migration

Welcome to Texas sign

Texas continues to be the country’s No. 1 magnet for newcomers from other states, giving a boost to the state’s economy. However, Texas’ appeal weakened in 2024 compared with the previous year, due in large part to spiking home prices.

An analysis of U.S. Census Bureau data by self-storage platform StorageCafe shows Texas saw net interstate migration of 76,000 people in 2024. Texas’ net interstate migration dropped nearly 50 percent from 2023, according to the analysis. Net migration refers to the number of incoming residents minus the number of outgoing residents.

California remained the top source of newcomers for Texas, sending nearly 77,000 residents to the Lone Star State in 2024, the analysis says. Florida ranked second, followed by New York, Colorado and Illinois.

“These trends reveal Texas’ continued pull from both high-cost coastal markets and other large Sun Belt states, resulting in a mix of affordability-driven and job-driven relocation,” StorageCafe says.

Putting a damper on the influx of new residents: a roughly 124 percent surge in Texas home prices over the past decade, according to StorageCafe.

“While the state remains significantly more affordable than California, its top feeder state, the once-wide pricing gap has narrowed,” says StorageCafe. “For many movers, Texas is still a relative bargain, but no longer an undisputed one.”

Nonetheless, Texas keeps attracting young, highly educated people, which bodes well for the state’s long-term economic outlook, StorageCafe says. More than half of new arrivals to Texas in 2024 held at least a bachelor’s degree, and the age of newcomers averaged 32.

Where are most of these young, highly educated newcomers settling?

Lloyd Potter, former Texas state demographer, tells StorageCafe that population growth in Texas is happening most rapidly in suburban “ring counties” at the expense of slowing growth in urban cores. Ring counties are on the outskirts of major metro areas.

“Many people are moving from urban cores to suburban rings seeking lower costs, newer housing, better schools, and more space,” Potter says. “Typically, a move to a suburban county will be within commuting or hybrid‑commuting distance of major metro economies.”
