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.

Very respectful and knowledgeable. Incredibly kind and I feel lighter every time I leave a session with David.

It helped me feel better. Very creative in his approach. My posture was more upright. And my eyes felt better. Thank you, David!

I've never had as powerful a massage as I received from David. What an extraordinary bodyworker. I hope to be back on Maui to have another one as soon as possible!

David is thorough, knowledgeable, and extremely personable!

David was truly amazing! His knowledge and skill were obvious by the confident and caring quality of his words and the confident and caring quality of his touch. He radiates a joyful enthusiasm for his work that is a special part of his gifts as a therapist/healer. He is also a teacher, sending me off with many things I could do to be an active participant in my own well-being. I left his studio feeling uplifted and inspired in body, mind, and spirit. David is the real deal!

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.
