"We don’t hate our own bodies, be we nourish and tenderly care for them." Paul of Tarsus, 62 AD

As my lifelong service in the U.S. Air Force drew to a close, I finally had the opportunity to pursue my dream job. In my early teens, my mother had often asked me to massage her aching feet after a long day standing. Ever since then, I have believed in the healing power of massage. It is technical, yet artistic. It utilizes wondrous techniques that work in harmony with the architecture of the human body. It soothes the soul. Massage is all that and more.

As my lifelong service in the U.S. Air Force drew to a close, I finally had the opportunity to pursue my dream job. In my early teens, my mother had often asked me to massage her aching feet after a long day standing. Ever since then, I have believed in the healing power of massage. It is technical, yet artistic. It utilizes wondrous techniques that work in harmony with the architecture of the human body. It soothes the soul. Massage is all that and more.
       I believe the 700 hours of training I received at the Montgomery School of Bodywork & Massage has equipped me to help you reduce pain, stress, tension, anxiety, and depression, just to name a few.  Certified in Therapeutic, Orthopedic, Pregnancy, and Thai massage, I am confident that I can also help you recover from old injuries that still cause you residual pain, loss of function, and reduced range of motion.
Do you have chronic pain in the neck and shoulders? Massage can help!
Headaches at the base of your skull or behind your eyes? One of my scalp massages can definitely help!
Even if you just want to feel less fatigued and recover some of your vigor, massage can help.
So, Yes! At this point in my life, my dream job is the privilege of serving and caring for the people in my community by helping them feel better in mind and body, which helps them be better for themselves, their families, at work and at play. 
Massage therapy -- it increases our usefulness -- it is exactly what you and I have been looking for. 
     Perhaps Charles Dickens said it best,
                   “No one is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of another.”

Awesome job!
by Kristina on Oct 29
I really appreciate that I don't feel pressured to talk during the massage except for the occasional check in to make sure the pressure is not too much. He creates an environment that makes it easy to relax and fully enjoy the the whole experience. I have been to several places in the area and hands down....Shawn is the best!

Shawn does great work with deep muscle relaxation, and is communicative and courteous.
