"I'm the guy your doctor comes to see" - Medical. Mindful. Deep.

For more than a decade I have specialized in a proprietary form of massage therapy I like to call "Comfortably Deep", but clients call it "Zen".  This form of massage is medically based on individual needs, yet encompasses relaxing the mind in order to engage the parasympathetic response (also known as "fight or flight").  The result is a longer lasting sense of overall individual wellbeing meant to last as deep muscular issues are worked out in a detailed manner, while th...

For more than a decade I have specialized in a proprietary form of massage therapy I like to call "Comfortably Deep", but clients call it "Zen".  This form of massage is medically based on individual needs, yet encompasses relaxing the mind in order to engage the parasympathetic response (also known as "fight or flight").  The result is a longer lasting sense of overall individual wellbeing meant to last as deep muscular issues are worked out in a detailed manner, while the mind is allowed to truly 'let go'.


My work attracts repeat business from a variety of intelligent people serious about their wellness; including doctors, nurses, athletes, scientists, physical therapists, and much more.  Customers say:
  • "He listens and he's trustworthy."
  • Doesn't push any religion, hokey stuff, nutrition, or pressuring to reschedule
  • Ethical - "Bryan never practices out of scope and actually works with my chiropractor even when it costs him business"
  • "Deep and detailed"
  • "I've tried many others and nobody else does what you do"

What sets me apart:
  • 6'4", huge hands, for deep detailed compression movements without "jabbing" or "digging"
  • Medically based with deep knowledge of anatomical structure including hands-on cadaver training.
  • Strategically minded combined with 10+ years of experience for holistic understanding of common muscular discomfort
  • A point of view that massage is one part of a person's wellness, I work with a person's chiropractor, doctor, PT instead of working against them.
  • Mindful relaxation is top priority as the brain often has the greatest impact on one's overall health.
"My style might not be for everybody.  If you are looking for a light swedish massage, I'm not your guy.  I am the guy your doctor comes to, if you are serious about massage as part of a healthy lifestyle I think we could be a good match.  Thanks for reading and I hope to see you soon."
