I have been involved in massage therapy for over 16 years. I was inspired to take up massage and bodywork through a chance conversation while working at the Denver Chamber of Commerce. From there I found a fantastic school, Center of Advanced Therapeutics, run by and staffed with great teachers. 

I have never stopped being curious about massage techniques and the beauties, power and capacity of people. It is from that curiosity that I practice. It is from that curiosity  I seek out different experiences and perspectives to grow from. This has taken me to aikido dojos to the ocean to tea ceremony rooms to many diverse place to learn about how to find strength and suppleness in my clients and myself.

I do not see any session with a client as a “deep tissue” or “sports” or “relaxing” massage. All that matters is what my client needs on the day I see them or what goal they are working towards. Whether a session is for preventing or recovering from surgery, relieving TMJ, doing sports related work or helping a singer/musician "tune" their body I switch modalities based on my client's needs. 

Practicing on Maui allows me to swim, SUP surf, body surf and hike with my son and friends almost everyday. When in Maui feel free to join other clients and myself as we enjoy the fruits and beauty of Maui. 

Mahalo for taking your time to learn about me and my vocation.

David was exceedingly helpful and expained why I was in pain and then massaging the area until the pain was almost gone. I am very grateful for his expertise.

Great massage and I feel David will help me learn how to minimize pain and get stronger. He is a true professional in his work and knows what your body needs to improve and be healthy.

Highly recommended.

David is an exceptional professional, and I’m so glad I had the chance to meet him during my relatively short stay. Even in just a few sessions, he was able to correct long-standing issues and significantly improve areas that had been bothering me for some time. His deep understanding of the body’s interconnectedness is impressive, and he explains everything in a way that’s easy to understand. On top of his expertise, David is also a great conversationalist and has a great sense of humor. Highly recommend!

I made an appointment for an issue with a stiff shoulder. I left the office relieved of the stiffness, educated, and with an understanding of what caused the stiffness.
