Ben's active lifestyle and ability to think and listen inspired him to work with the body and mind. Graduating from both the University of Washington with a Psychology degree and from ICOHS College in San Diego as a Licensed Massage Therapist, Ben has acquired a well-rounded knowledge base for helping others. In the clinic, Ben's therapeutic techniques range from Western-based soft-tissue work to Eastern-drawn intuitive touch, which he adapts and caters to each client's desires and needs. Outside of the clinic, you can find him playing tennis or pickleball at the various clubs and courts around Bend, or cruising around the greater area on his single or tandem bicycle. Yoga, Tai Chi and Qigong all play a role in his life and work, and he is happy to share little bits with clients after each session. A forever student, Ben seeks to continue to add to his knowledge base while working with clients to help achieve their goals.
