Overview
Ok
Based in Portland, OR, I specialize in deep tissue and myofascial release massage techniques, along with breathwork coaching. My signature style provides an opening of the pathways for the nervous system to release old stress and tension from the muscles and fascia (connective tissue). This rapidly realigns the body physically and energetically.
I’ve been told many times I give the most thorough back massage clients have ever had.
I don’t shy away from hips, glutes, inner thighs, and low abdominal work, as it’s to your comfort level. A recent client mentioned that he gets better results from
An hour with me than an hour and a half with most other practitioners.
I specialize in working with gay men. Whatever the source of your pain, stress, or stiffness, I’ve got you covered!
I have a background in trauma integration, life coaching, and partner work. My table is a safe space for you to be the totality of who you are, relax, and be supported in your health and wholeness. All I ask is that you come ready to BREATHE DEEP! :-)
To book, Please tell me more about you and your specific needs. This way, I can get a sense of who you are and how to best support your healing.

Gathered by Jay from admiring massage clients to share with you.

Jay's touch is incredible. He was firm and able to break up several knots in my back. The massage was perfect on my end... he was so helpful in teaching me to breathe in order to facilitate relaxation. When he was finished, I laid there for what seemed an eternity and just let the peaceful state sink in. I definitely plan to see Jay when I return to Portland!

Jay uses the full strength of his muscles and body to release tension. He has VERY strong hands, and is able to take you on a journey of self-connection and realignment. He is a skillful breathwork facilitator also and helped me realize the power of meeting his touch with deep breath. He checked in with me on pressure and comfort throughout the massage, and was very responsive to communication in the scheduling process.
He is, by far, the best I’ve had, I highly recommend. Only regret is that i was visiting and won’t be able to repeat the experience on a regular basis.

Jay was awesome when I booked my appointment. Even though it was a last-minute request, he responded super quickly and made everything easy. I really appreciated how professional and accommodating he was. During the massage, Jay had this incredible intuition. He knew exactly where my trouble areas were without me even telling him. Plus, he gave me some great tips on how to reduce pressure in my everyday life. His knowledge and skill made the whole experience perfect. Highly recommend!

Where to start, short story I didn't want to get up from the table when the massage was finished. He wasn't kidding in the bio COME READY TO BREATHE! It heightens the experience and surprisingly does help you relax more. Very enjoyable experience and will definitely look to book again. I was given plenty of time to come to, offered water after and even chatted a little afterwards. The place was petite but inviting and home feel which really helped with the experience. Price was worth the experience and would recommend giving him a try as I'm sure I'll be booking again!
