A graduate of the West Coast College of Massage Therapy (2005), John began his career with a deeply personal mission. After witnessing the transformative power of massage therapy during his mother’s recovery from a significant spinal injury, he dedicated his professional life to helping others navigate the path from chronic pain to restored quality of life. John’s practice is rooted in the “8 Pillars of Health” and the goal of returning the body to homeostasis. By blending evidence-based clinical techniques with the compassionate ethics of Buddhist philosophy, he meets every patient exactly where they are in their healing journey. His treatments are a partnership, focusing on high-impact modalities including Deep Tissue, Trigger Point Therapy, and Myofascial Release. Recognizing that the nervous system is the gateway to physical change, John integrates joint play and breathwork into every session to facilitate deeper release and lasting relief. Outside of the clinic, John draws balance from a diverse range of passions. A former student of the Dubrulle Culinary Institute, he is an avid cook and baker. Whether he is playing music, enjoying a daily walk, or diving into a book on psychology or the classics, John believes that staying balanced and energized allows him to provide the highest level of care to his patients and family.
