In one sentence: this man knows what he is doing. He has a deep understanding of both western and eastern philosophies on tissue pain and recovery, and carries with him a wealth of information on meditation techniques and ways to help yourself even off the massage table. He is very attentive, always asking how the pressure was and making sure it never got above the correct level. I am definitely looking forward to setting another appointment and further improving the condition of my chronic pain/tightness. If anyone can help with chronic muscle pain/soreness/tightness, it's THIS guy!
