Aloha! My name Mei Montgomery and the owner of  iMperative Massage. I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology, and Master's in Business Administration. I was certified as a Personal Trainer, Nutritionist, and Weight Management Specialist by the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) in 2011. In 2019 I completed  the Massage Therapy/ Asian Bodywork program at the Pacific College of Oriental Medicine and became a licensed massage therapist.

As an avid weightlifter I understand that injuries, even in its simplest form can be very humbling. My small private practice in Mission Valley, San Diego seeks to empower fellow fit-mommas, gym-goers, weightlifters and athletes to look beyond drugs and surgery for health solutions. I invite you to instead rely on their innate intelligence to facilitate and achieve optimal healing through through self-care and bodywork so that you can go back to doing the thing you love. 

I take a holistic approach to bodywork and during a session I may combine multiple modalities to help relieve you of pain. My clients get to pick their choice of tranquil to acoustic music, enjoy some light-hearted conversation, home therapy exercises and a feeling of euphoria following their therapeutic session.
