Overview

I offer intuitive, grounded, and queer-affirming bodywork in Portland, drawing from an 800-hour massage therapy program that included Swedish, Deep Tissue, Tui Na, and a variety of Eastern and Western modalities. My approach blends anatomical knowledge with deep listening—to both your body and my own intuition.

My practice is especially centered on LGBTQIA+ and gay clients, while welcoming all bodies with openness and care. I create a non-discriminatory, affirming space where you can fully relax and feel seen.

My... goal is to help you feel amazing—physically, emotionally, and energetically. That means releasing muscular and fascial tension, calming the nervous system, and offering touch that supports body acceptance and embodied presence.

Each session is uniquely crafted based on how you’re feeling that day. This is a space to simply receive care, without pressure or expectation.

Please note: I respond to text messages only to maintain focus and timely communication between sessions.

The location listed on my profile is where I work most days. On Fridays, I’m based in SE Portland. The hours are my general availability, I’m happy to be flexible when my schedule allows—just reach out. You can also ask about my online booking for easy scheduling.

Let’s connect about what would help you feel more grounded, relaxed, and embraced—inside and out.

Testimonials

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

April 22, 2025 in Portland, OR (in-studio)

This was my second visit, and I can confidently say I've found my new go-to guy. The session was exactly what I needed: relaxing, restorative, and deeply effective. My immediate pain concerns were addressed with just the right amount of pressure, and I left feeling incredible. I actually woke up the next day thinking my body might be in trouble because I felt so different, but as I started moving, I realized I felt amazing. Like I had dropped 10 years overnight. That entire day I carried a sense of lightness and relief I hadn’t felt in a long time.

He is also incredibly easy to communicate with. He asks thoughtful questions that show he is genuinely interested in how you are feeling and what you need. It is clear that he truly cares about helping you feel better and not just going through the motions.

The space is great. It is comfortable, private, and free from the usual distractions you find in more commercial massage studios. I really appreciated the calm and uninterrupted focus. I am already browsing the schedule to book my next session. Highly recommended.
