Overview
Swedish massage is now available at a new lower rate, making regular therapeutic care more accessible. I’m also now offering Hakomi sessions — a gentle, mindfulness-based somatic therapy that invites you to slow down and listen to what your body is already saying. Rather than talking about your experience, Hakomi guides you into it, using present-moment awareness, breath, and subtle touch to explore the beliefs and patterns held in your nervous system and tissues. Many clients describe it as the

Mark is an excellent massage therapist. He used several innovative techniques that were incredibly effective. He really knows what he's doing and is a genuinely nice person. I wouldn't hesitate to book an appointment with him.

Incredible techniques , extraordinary knowledge combined together in one man which is blessed in the art of massage and healing.
His energy is warm and comforting therefore any one , even those who have never presented themselves for massage would be comfortable in his presence in his space and on his table.

This was my first massage with Mark and I'm so glad I decided to give him a try during his visit to Columbus. The session began with some general questions about myself and any issues I had been experiencing. It was clear from the beginning that Mark knows his craft very well.
The session included a wide range of pressure and modalities. I suffer from lower back pain and Mark knew exactly what to do to help, including some very effective stretching.
We concluded with Mark reiterating things I could do between massages to help with my lower back and shoulders.
Mark is very easy to talk to, you can tell his goal is to help his clients feel better not just during the massage but for weeks to follow.
Definitely, will look Mark up when I visit Chicago and certainly hope he decides to visit Columbus again soon.
