There is something compelling about being able to put my hands on people and make them feel better.

While I was formally trained at the National Holistic Institute in San Francisco in 2009, I have been giving massages my whole life. My mother tells stories of back rubs I gave at age of 7, and my college friends fondly remember study breaks with shoulder rubs and hand massages to keep us all going.

James is the best. He has been miraculously easing my aches and pains for many years. No, I don't fall sleep on the table - I get my money's worth! He has terrific hands, combined with a great depth of knowledge about the body, true empathy for his clients, and sensitivity to the discomfort we sometimes endure to feel better.

Miracle worker

Healing is an understatement. Transformative gets closer. My neurologists, MRI, tests, meds, endless sleepless night worth of constant pain, all gone. This is James' work. James' healed me. James' deep work fixed me. Gratitude does not come close to how this feels. I am overwhelmed. Thank you, James.

James is totally professional, knowledgeable and caring in treating me and my first time with massage. I quickly was at ease and only wished we lived in San Francisco to continue sessions with him.

James is a highly gifted masseur and body worker. Although his rates are higher than many, it is well worth the fees.

James is a very skilled, experienced, and intuitive healer. I have been struggling with a sore hip for month now, and after one session, I feel relief!
