Recommendation for massage therapist - Boston?

Any Mass residents that can recommend a good sports massage therapist in the Boston area? I need one that has worked on runners...specifically piriformis syndrome because I'm convinced that is what I have...(and I'm aware I'm in for some real torture if I go through with this) Thanks.
