REVIEWS for my Bodywork services

I’ve now had 2 sessions with Jim and can honestly say I feel so much better and less restricted. I’ve been struggling with tightness for a while now and it feels good to finally feel progress. He is very knowledgeable and makes you feel comfortable during the whole session. I will continue to see him.

He is very knowledgeable about how all of the different muscles, tendons, tissue, joints, etc. work together. He knows all of the right techniques to release pain.

I felt a noticeable difference all over my body. The tension in my shoulders, back and hips were released. I woke up this morning feeling great with 0 pain. I highly recommend this experience to anyone.

I had been having constant tingling in my ring and pinky finger on my right hand, despite months of PT. After seeing Jim for one session, the tingling completely disappeared for almost a week and while it has slightly come back after lifting and a six hour drive, I am confident that a few more sessions with Jim will alleviate it. He was very professional: he asked me my goals for the session and did a full physical examination before beginning to see where I might have tightness or ROM issues. His approach was very different from typical massage which I also get regularly and which has been helpful as well. I do think he has some techniques that the average MT may not have and those techniques contributed to my pain relief. The room is nicely decorated and very comfortable. Unlike in some massage situations, the client can remain dressed in loose-fitting clothing, which may be a plus for some. I plan to go back for this issue and have him address my lower back pain as well.
