About John
As a dedicated Registered Massage Therapist, I am passionate about providing personalized care to my clients. With a focus on thoughtful, intelligent, deep tissue and fascial release, and a detailed understanding of anatomy, I aim to resolve your aches, pains, injuries and issues.
​
Unlike many RMTs, my focus is not centrally on relaxation. Although they can be relaxing, the main aim of my treatments is to get you the results you need though effective soft tissue therapy.
I am commited to fostering a safe, welcoming, and inclusive environment for everyone. I believe in the power of healing for all bodies, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, age, religion, ability, or background.
My goal is to provide compassionate care to every member of our beautifully diverse community in a space where every client feels seen, respected and valued.

Philosophy & Approach
My philosophy revolves around the belief that massage therapy is much more than a method of relaxation - it is an essential component of holistic well-being and the management of pain and injury.
I incorporate Western approaches of fascial release, deep tissue massage and trigger point therapy, with Eastern principles of Thai Stretch, Reiki, and Meridian energy lines.
This coupled with detailed anatomical knowledge, instinctive therapeutic touch, compassion, and energy awareness, will help you get the results you need to restore balance.
