Life is a Verb!

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.

REVIEWS for my Bodywork services

Amazing as always!

James is a very gifted massage therapist. I've had many massages over the years, and he's at the top of the list. He's friendly, and immediately made me comfortable. His deep work freed up knots I didn't even know I had! Total relaxation, and I didn't feel like I'd been run over by a truck the next day.

His knowledge of muscles is amazing. For me going to James is therapy for my shoulder and hip pain. He has spoiled me and I have not found no other who can duplicate his experience.

If you're in need of massage therapy, James is your man. Not only is James excellent at what he does, he's friendly, professional and flexible. I would never hesitate to recommend his services. He's worth every dollar.
