Can tell that Christopher cared about making my muscles better in the long term. My shoulders and neck are my struggle and he focused on treating the problem knots rather than doing something that was only surface level relaxing. First massage in a while where the muscles didn't immediately revert back to tense. I will definitely be returning to him. I recommend booking longer than you think because the time flies. I'm not convinced I didn't fall asleep in there! I also appreciate that they use non comedogenic products which are not oily and slick but soak in/dry so that you don't ruin your skin or clothes. Online booking was also a plus. Prices are comparable to other purveyors but I feel there is a higher value here because the results last!

Been going to Chris regularly since the beginning of the year and I wanted to give an update. After years of abuse on my body, Chris has really been able to turn my situation around in just a few months.

For years I have had issues with my lower back and hips, even needing to wear a lift in my shoe due to what I thought was one leg being shorter than the other. With Chris's incredible work, it turned out it was an issue with the rotation of my hip and I've now been able to function without the heel lift and with no pain.

He has also been giving me stretches to do on my own which have helped me maintain his work between sessions.

I just got off the table about an hour ago from another myofascial release/structural integration massage and when he asked how I felt, I honestly said, I feel 20 years younger than when I came in. The work he has been doing on me has been holding longer and longer, which means when I go back in, he is able to concentrate on deeper and smaller muscles and truly making me feel like my much younger self. I know that I will be sore tomorrow with the work he did today, but it is a good soreness, like I had an incredible gym session. I really can't recommend Chris highly enough. In addition to being extremely talented massage therapist, he is also just an extremely great guy.

I booked with Chris based on his credentials of being Board Certified. During the 60 min therapeutic massage it was apparent he takes his craft seriously. His extensive knowledge of the body helped relieve me of pain and I left feeling lighter. Immediately following the session my range of motion was improved. I felt like my needs were a priority and were taken care of. Will be back soon!

Beautiful and clean facility. It’s clear this establishment nurtures its environment. Professional and competent staff.
