I'm Chad! I am a certified massage therapist and clinical herbalist with over 15 years of experience practicing massage therapy and herbal medicine. As a massage therapist, I have worked in both high-end spa and busy clinical environments. With a decade working in a community acupuncture clinic in Oceanside, I have extensive experience addressing a wide range of chronic and acute pain issues such low back pain, sciatica (and other nerve related compressions in the hips or low back region), neck, shoulder, and foot issues (such as plantar fasciitis). 

I integrate a variety of modalities into my massage work--Swedish, deep tissue, trigger point therapy, active muscle release, and craniosacral therapy. Every session is tailored to my client's needs. Whether you're looking to relax and alleviate stress, address an injury, a chronic, acute pain, or mobility issue, or enhance athletic performance, I've got you covered. 

I currently offer mobile massage services in the north San Diego County region serving the Vista, San Marcos, Oceanside, Carlsbad, and Leucadia/Encinitas areas. I can travel into more southern San Diego areas depending on my schedule and the time of day for an additional cost (excluding the downtown San Diego area and areas south of the San Diego metro region). Please text me before booking if you are outside the north San Diego area to confirm my availability. 

I am passionate about holistic health and wellness. In addition to my massage therapy and holistic health education, I have a background in cultural and medical anthropology with undergraduate training at California State University San Marcos and graduate studies at University of Wales Trinity Saint David. Informed by a deep understanding and appreciation for human evolution and cultural systems, I have a unique perspective on practical whole food nutrition, herbal medicine, and fitness, offering consultation services to help guide clients in achieving their unique health and wellness goals. All of my herbal/wellness consultations are conducted remotely via Zoom. 

I look forward to working with you!
