Therapeutic Massage by John

I called John for a massage because I had been having lower back pain for the first time in years. I explained the issue and he was able to incorporate some stretches that really alleviated the discomfort. He lives on a quiet street with plenty of parking, which is such a relief in the bay area. He was cheerful and pleasant and put me at ease immediately. The massage was so relaxing that I felt that I was in a trance at one point. I will definitely be back soon.

John provides an exceptionally sensitive and replenishing massage. He is caring and committed to making the experience comfortable; he creates an environment that is relaxing and inviting. I've never had a massage as good as the one John offers, and that is why I keep coming back. He focuses on points of tension as requested, and does so with immense care, but he also provides attention to other muscles groups where undiscovered tension might lie. I leave his massages feeling deliciously tired, relaxed, refreshed.

I've had a great deal of bodywork over the decades, enjoying various styles of massage. Having gone through 2 full series of Rolfing work, I tend to like deep tissue bodywork. That said, I like to have relaxing components mixed in with the experience. John is one of the few massuers that perfectly blends deep tissue work with a strong, firm, yet gentle hand. His energy is very grounded and he transmits deep relaxation through his hands. He understands the degree to which communication needs to occur during the session, yet is comfortable with silence. I knew I was in capable hands, immediately, which allowed me a full 90 minutes of relaxation. I travel a lot for work and get massaged on the road. That said, John is now my 'go to' guy for massage here in the Bay Area.

John's space is very relaxing and he really knows how to get in there and dig out those knotted up muscles I wanted a really deep-tissue massage for a chronic problem with my upper back, neck and shoulders due to years of working at a computer. John's bodywork is amazing! Thanks!

John is very polite and welcomed me at his front door. He gave me the comfortable massage and help me fall into light sleep during massage.

Absolutely unbelievably amazing. Actually used deep tissue and he knew what he was doing. Completely professional. I would recommend him to ANYONE who wants a fantastic massage!!
