Thoughtful care for bodies that still have work to do...

A lot of athletes don't know how to keep aches and pains from slowing their training down. May name is Maurice Henderson and I help Olympians train pain free, so they can focus on the world's most competitive stage. The upcoming LA games in 2028 is the next goal. I assess and treat athletes 2-3 times per week/month, so they get the most out of their training while here in Olympic City, USA

REVIEWS for my Bodywork, Fitness, or Wellness services

Maurice is a professional with an excellent background and skills. He worked on my neck and shoulders with his deep tissue therapy technique and it opened the painful areas. As the day went on I could tell the therapy realigned and stretched the areas and my neck and shoulders were 100% better and pain-free. I am grateful and look forward to the next session!

Maurice is an exceptional person as well as a remarkable masseuse. He actively listens, I could see the wheels turning in his mind as we discussed what was going on with my musculature. He sees the holistic approach as it is. Highly recommend!
