About
I work with people in the San Rafael area who are dealing with pain or limitations from old injuries or surgeries, and want more than temporary relief.
If your back, hip, knee, neck, or shoulder keeps getting in the way of the things you care about, whether that’s hiking, staying active at the gym, or just moving through your day without pain, providing you with long-term relief and helping you return to the life you love is what I do.
Sessions are in-home and combine 90-minutes of orthopedic massage, assisted stretching, and restorative exercises. Most clients feel a significant difference in their first session, but our real goal is always building the appropriate strength, flexibility, and body awareness needed for the benefits to be sustained.
Working with me is best suited for people who want results and to learn how to maintain it themselves.
Message me with what’s bothering you and for how long. I’ll let you know whether I can help and what I recommend as a starting point.

Nicky goes beyond physical body work. I started training with Coach Nicky to complement my power lifting routine and in preparation for surgery after significant weight loss. Not only did Nicky help me with mobility and injury concerns, he also helped me with training my mindset and developing my confidence with taking up space in the world around me. He is extremely knowledgeable about how our bodies and minds work. He used these strengths to help me get the best out of my training sessions and to empower me to continue training on my own with confidence.

NICK IS THE REAL DEAL.
He knows everything about his field. So much so that when working together I always knew, without hesitation that what we were doing was 100% designed for me specifically to get the results I wanted. He gives clear, direct instructions all while being an all around great guy.

Nick - it’s a broad based expert on the mind and body. He was invaluable in my journey towards becoming more mentally and physically fit. I have deep gratitude for what he has done for me.

Recently I have been having issues with my joints and muscle, particularly my right shoulder. Raising my right arm greater than 90 degrees was very difficult without causing pain in my shoulder and my upper body workout was getting very difficult.
One day I saw Coach Nicky Macaluso’s flyer for assisted stretching and sports massage and decided to sign up for an initial consultation. Although hesitant at first, after my initial consultation I was very impressed and comfortable with him. So I signed up for 2 months of sessions.
My sessions usually started with sports massage & assisted stretching, then on to learning self-stretching and exercises to strengthen smaller muscles I never knew I had. We started with my shoulders and by the 4th week I was able to raise my right arm 180 deg without pain. Week 5 we moved on to core and legs, by the time my sessions was complete I felt stronger than I have been in a long while.
Coach Nicky has a great knowledge of the human muscular anatomy and has the ability to really get in tune with your body. He’s taught me a lot about my muscular anatomy and my work out routine. With the tools he has given me I am excited to see how much further I can improve in the next 3 months. Beyond helping me feel less pain, gaining strength and flexibility, he has greatly improved my quality of life
After sessions with Coach Nicky, I have change of perspective on coaching. If you have a joint and muscle issues I would highly recommend Coach Nicky, I am very happy that I did.

Nick worked on me for about 10 months. It started with an injury to my left shoulder that he would work on every time we met. I could barely sleep on my side and within about a month of working with Nick, sleeping became regular again. Nick is knowledgeable about body mechanics. When my back or hip hurt he knew what to do. Nick gave me stretching and strengthening exercises I still use today in my workouts. If he didn’t move out of state I would still be going to him. I would definitely recommend Nick for injury relief, stretching or strengthening.
