About Us
Through multiple physically demanding careers and a lifelong practice of martial arts, I understand many of the challenges our bodies present. Practicing massage therapy is part of my own wellness journey. I consider active listening the first responsibility of my profession. Understanding why a client is choosing massage therapy, as well as their desired outcomes, are both crucial in determining an effective course of treatment. Additionally, I am a firm believer in the power of relaxation and its fundamental role in health and wellness.

James is an absolute professional. His communication was excellent, he made me feel extremely comfortable (I'm a 56 yo woman) and he is a gifted massage therapist. I've already made my next appt.

Had a great experience. I appreciate James being so thorough in explaining his techniques and really listens to the client's needs. Would highly recommend James to anyone who is looking for a massage therapist. I left my session so relaxed and relieved from the pain I have been experiencing. Would return next time I am in the area.

James really listens to me and addresses any specific areas I need work on. He lets me know if he has any new techniques he wants to employ in the massage and frequently checks in with me during the massage to see if I am comfortable with what he is doing. And, he is a very skilled massage therapist and I feel great when I leave.

He was super clear about where he would go and what he would do. As a woman being treated by a man this put me at ease right away. I needed deep tissue work done on my legs and he checked in with me often on what I felt. No weirdness, professional and skilled. I will see him again.

James is an excellent massage therapist, and here is why - If you go to him for a relaxation massage, you will understand why I say he's excellent. His studio is quiet, and comfortable. You leave feeling great! If you are there for specific issues - He listens to you. He checks in with you to see how you are feeling, how's the pressure... actually he does that with every massage? You work together on getting the result you want.
I have been working with James for over a year now. Sometimes it's simply for relaxation but quite often it's to work out those kinks we all get from time to time. I refer all my friends, and anyone who asks, to James.
Bonus - he has a good variety of appointment times.

James was very professional and made me feel at ease during my entire treatment. The office was extremely clean, temperature was not to warm or cold. He explained everything and asked questions to make sure I was comfortable with what he was doing the entire hour. I left feeling much better than when I came in and I slept like a baby for the first time in weeks! Definitely will recommend to my friends and family.

I highly recommend James Burtle for full body massage. I am a very physically hard worker. After I shoveled 3 yards of garden dirt over the weekend I had severe muscle strains & muscle cramps. He listened to my needs. I am thankfully now pain free.

I have already told my family and general practitioner that I found my new massage therapist. I had a second cervical fusion surgery earlier this year and was very worried about having a massage. James listened to everything I said, he asked several questions before the massage, and checked in during the massage to make sure the pressure was okay and I was comfortable. I’ve had many massages over the years. James is by far the best and I trust him which is huge for me!

I arrived at my appointment after a trip and carrying a 25 pound baby for a week, stiff and inflexible with low grade pain in hips. Today (next day) I am pain free and back to normal! James listened to my issues and addressed them all with his awesome massage.
I truly. believe when you retire, your job now becomes trying to do everything you can to be as healthy as possible so you can enjoy every day of your retirement. You owe it to yourself! James is one of the ways.
