What a great 90 mins this was. Chris is so deliberate, so attentive, just great all around. I've had lots of massages & this was easily top 3 all time. No I'm not being paid to say that. Ha.

I felt right at home as soon as I walked in the door! Chris is a fantastic massage therapist. I went in because of pain and stress and walked out feeling better and with tips and tools to help alleviate some tension on the body. I cannot wait to go back!

Common questions
A few things people ask first.
The full set lives on the FAQ page. Read all the FAQs →
I've never had massage before. Is this the right place to start?
Yes. We talk for the first five minutes - what hurts, what's going on, what you've tried - and then I work to whatever pressure you can actually receive. Nothing aggressive on a first session unless you ask for it.
Do you take insurance or HSA/FSA?
I don't bill insurance directly, but I'll provide an itemized receipt you can submit to an HSA or FSA. Most plans cover therapeutic massage with a doctor's note - happy to coordinate.
What's Zoku Shin Do, exactly?
A traditional Japanese foot-and-lower-leg modality - reflex-based, methodical, and unusually thorough. Real bodywork for the feet and calves, not a quick foot rub. I trained in it specifically because almost no one in Colorado offers it.
Whenever you're ready.
One room. One hour. The session you've been needing. Booking is online - text or call if you'd rather skip the calendar.
