Benjamin’s work is rooted in presence — the kind of steady, grounded attention cultivated through years of meditation in Nepal and India, martial arts discipline, and a lifelong devotion to understanding the body from the inside out. Before becoming a massage therapist, he immersed himself in traditional Chinese medicine, endurance sports, CrossFit, martial arts, and functional movement. His athletic background gives him a lived understanding of strain, injury, performance, and recovery — and how profoundly the nervous system influences all of it. At the heart of Benjamin’s massage is a quality of listening that feels rare: he attunes to breath, subtle shifts, and the natural intelligence of the body, blending Esalen-inspired flow with deep tissue, Swedish, and orthopedic techniques. His touch is confident but spacious — firm when needed, gentle when invited — always guided by what your system is ready for. Clients often describe sessions with him as: grounding deeply relaxing unexpectedly emotional the first time in a long time they’ve felt at home in their body Benjamin approaches his craft with Beginner’s Mind — curious, humble, and continually learning. As part of GoShine, he’s thrilled to offer a style of bodywork that honors both structure and spirit, strength and softness. When he’s not in session, you’ll find him trail running, practicing Muay Thai, doing yoga with Grace, or exploring new hikes and cold plunges — always returning to the practices that keep him centered. If you’re craving a massage that feels intentional, tuned-in, and transformative from the inside out, Benjamin is here to support you.
Best for: stubborn knots & deeply held tension — without the “beat-up” feeling. This is slow, intentional deep work that releases what’s stuck in the deeper layers of muscle and fascia while keeping your nervous system relaxed and receptive. We use steady pressure, patient pacing, and clear communication—so the work is effective, not aggressive.
