The picture you see is of me competing at the National Massage Championship. This is after winning the State of Tennessee Massage Championship . The reason I am using this picture is so that you are not shocked by me the first time we meet. I am a big guy, but also gentle.  I am one of the most empathetic, compassionate and gentle massage therapists that you will work with.     I'm a native Tennessean who is also a combat veteran and a business owner for over 20 years. Now I'm a proud Licensed Massage Therapist. How did this happen? As life often does, it leads us down a path we are not expecting, and I discovered that I have a passion for massage therapy. Why massage? In normal business you help people with a product or a service.  You're glad to be of help. But massage is another level of this. You meet total strangers that are stressed out and run down with everyday life. They may have tight muscles, pain, joint soreness or just desperately need to relax. As a therapist I can help this person feel like the center of the universe for a short time. During your session I will bring focus and compassion to your wellbeing. How cool is that! What an amazing career. So, if you're stressed, have sore muscles or maybe you just need to feel pampered, come see me. I would be honored to work with you.
