Supreme Wellness! Power of Performance!
Come to my beautiful studio for a great massage! Or, I can do onsite massage therapy too. I work with yogis, dancers, athletes, musicians, actors, anyone who wants to be in supreme condition. Massage will help to get you there, and keep you there! Give me a call for your appointment:
(503) 724-2755 mobile
For more info, please see my website:

Information about the type of massage therapy that I offer:
I offer an integrative massage, drawing from the massage modalities listed below. In this way, you will benefit from the best aspects of the modalities, in an appropriate therapy for your current state of well-being.

In simple terms, I will give you a great massage! I work on the mat, table, massage chair, or a regular chair.

Massage Modalities offered include:
Zen Shiatsu, Chinese, Thai, Swedish, Sports, Deep Tissue, Medical, Hot Stone, Cold Stone.

Here are some examples of my integrative massage style:

Zen Shiatsu is incorporated into a Swedish Massage, performed on the massage table. The relaxing strokes of Swedish Massage combined with Hara diagnosis and balancing of the meridians as found in Zen Shiatsu, and Traditional Chinese Medicine.

A Swedish Massage is performed on the mat, combined with Traditional Thai Massage, and other therapies are combined as needed. You will be draped appropriately at all times.

A massage session based on only one of the modalities, in the classical technique of that modality. For example, a Zen Shiatsu session is done on a mat, with the client fully clothed, in light cotton or silk clothing. Chinese Massage (Acupressure, and Tui Na), is done on a massage table, or with the client seated, with the client fully clothed in light cotton or silk clothing.

I work on the mat, table, a massage chair, or regular chair. The mat will offer the best support and body mechanics for both the therapist and client, especially for Zen Shiatsu and Traditional Thai Massage, or any modality combining with either or both. The massage table is more familiar to most people, and works well for any modality. The massage chair is only used while the client is fully clothed, and works well for people who do not have the time to be on the table or mat.

Just come in, fill out a brief intake form and medical history.  If possible, it's best to not have any food for a couple hours before.  We will talk first, plan your session, and then we will have a great massage therapy session. It is not uncommon to have a massage therapy session go to two hours. Both of us will have more energy and feel relaxed after the session. That is because both of us go to the source of life energy and healing. It's hard to explain, but it is really great!

For chair massage, I can do alot in only ten minutes. 15 or 20 minutes is better.

For table or mat massage:
Half an hour is very short, but I can treat one area of the body.

An hour is OK for a specific part of the body, and it can work for a full body massage. If any problem areas come up during the massage, we will work on the problem areas, and will have to skip working on other parts of the body.

For a full body massage, plan on an hour and a half.

We can accomplish deep, transformative work in two hours.

Regular sessions are best. Weekly appointments work well.

Mahalo, Namaste,
Steve
