REVIEWS for my Bodywork services

by Lane on Apr 23
I have gone to many different massage therapists over the years. Lawrence is absolutely the best.

Lawrence really listened to understand the issue I've been experiencing and was able to release some of the tightness with the SI area. He was intentional about checking in to ensure the pressure was effective but not painful. Grateful!

Lawrence is results-oriented. He uses his knowledge of the body and his experience to troubleshoot issues causing pain or tightness. He's a master at what he does. I recommend him to everyone.

Lawrence is an expert in trigger point massage therapy. I have enlisted him and his technique for a previous injury with great success and I have returned with another painful physical issue. I have full confidence that I will improve under his careful treatment.

Lawrence provides very healing massages. I have been going to him for a few years now and hope to keep going for many years to come. His style with massage shines through and you can really tell he knows what he's doing.

I am fighting a stage 4 cancer and Lawrence has the knowledge and background to know what to do and also what not to do while giving me my weekly therapy/massage. Would highly recommend him !!! Always does a great job and makes a difference in my pain levels when finished. Joel Burkhalter
