Healing & Transformational Massage Therapy

I began working as a massage therapist in Hollywood in the late 1980's. I started by working on some of the biggest film sets of the day, doing massage on cast, crew and production personnel.

My client base grew steadily from there and gave me the opportunity to be very successful in my work. Many of those clients are still on my table regularly to this day. I studied with the best teachers as a part of my journey to become the healing artist I wanted to be. I have over 750 hours of formal training. In 2007, I taught master classes in Italy.

I specialize in many modalities: Swedish, deep tissue, structural reintegration, Thai massage, reflexology, prenatal massage and cranial-sacral therapy.

Sessions are customized to fit your needs. Energy is transformational, and my goal is to tune your energy to find the optimum balance that is "you" to help you feel lighter, more present, and pain-free. I listen with my ears, hands and with my whole being to help improve the quality of your life through therapeutic touch.

Stress is the foundation of illness and disease. Massage is an effective part of eradicating stress and improving quality of life. I'm dedicated to helping you feel your very best!

Sessions are priced at $80 for one hour, $120 for 90 minutes and $150 for two hours. My prices are slightly more for longer-distance traveling and late-night hours.

  I've been a furniture designer for many many, years. So I should know a thing or two about massage therapists. Nobody combines the ability to soothe with the savant-like intuition about what it takes to undo a knot, relieve a pinched nerve without surgery (I should know), and generally give you the feeling on a Wednesday night that you just had a relaxing weekend. Chris Saves! Lol

  Chris is a very intuitive and very skilled massage therapist. He instinctively detects what your body needs and has all the tools to do a wonderful job. My experience with him, after many other massages from others, was a whole new experience and my body (and mind) has thanked me for going to him. If I could, I would make a weekly standing session with him, as my health, relaxation and whole outlook benefits.

  I have known Chris more than twenty years now and have never met a more generous and gentle person. He is studious and is always seeking to improve his breadth of knowledge, culling techniques from around the globe. His sessions are personalized not only to the individual but to what may be needed by the body on any particular day. I could not recommend him enough.

  Chris is really such an incredible find that I'm loathe to let the rest of L.A. know what great touch he gives. He uses an amazing combination of gentle and firm strokes and is quick to identify trouble spots (and offer relief!). He seems to work intuitively -- while I like very firm, strong touch, I have never had to tell Chris to back it off or dial it down. He's good about assessing what's going on with his clients are and doesn't push any further than he needs to. He also doesn't ever rush -- he's hospitable and warm and calming from the minute he opens his door to when we say goodbye. It feels like a little bit of a mini-vacation leaving Chris's place! And my heart (and shoulders) are always lighter for it. Two big thumbs up!

  A couple years ago I had some sciatic nerve pain. I asked Chris if there was something he could do. After a two hour session my pain was history. And, it has yet to return. Chris is a true professional. He enjoys what he does. He is very good at what he does. His therapy speaks for itself. Check him out NOW if you are experiencing any discomfort or pain.

  I've been going to Chris for over 10 years for massage work. I've been to many spas for massages but no one comes close to Chris. When I've been in serious pain or run down by my work, he has helped me recover, revitalize my body and spirit. I've had problems with my wrists, where it hurts by certain movements I make. Well, Chris has massaged and adjusted my wrists where I have complete recovery of mobility and circulation. How i can explain it, is that whatever he does, releases the toxins and unlocks my wrists and a rush of circulation comes back into that area and my arms.
  He is truly a healer and I would suggest him to any newcomer female or male. He's very personable and calming!
  Go to Chris and experience a transformation!

  Chris has an amazing gift to not only release tension in your muscles, but to completely "reset" your body.
  I first came to Chris with a thrown out back. I didn't realize the extent to which massage therapy could reverse the downward spiral of a an injury and set it on the path toward recovery until I got on Chris' table.
  I send anyone and everyone who will listen his way. You will thank me.
  Truly a master!
