Introduction: The single biggest reason why you should hire me is the degree to which your comfort level and ability to move easily matter to me. (In fact, they mean so much to me that I’ve built a whole new approach to massage therapy around those two goals!) And that commitment to you begins even before the first time we meet, while we’re texting or speaking on the phone for the first time. You see, as unusual as this may sound, you and your quality of life begin to matter to me the very second that you become a client or patient of mine, and your ability to operate your body and live your life with ease — and to move around and engage in the activities that matter most to you with minimal effort and maximum flexibility, AND comfort — all of those matter so much to me that I dedicate my days and occasional nights to them! It’s a level of respect for you and your body that most people will never get to experience. It’s something very different than is offered anywhere else: a level of care and attention to detail that has to be experienced to be completely understood. See, I believe that if I treat your skin, muscles, nerves, connective tissues and emotions with the respect, sensitivity and consideration that I know _I_ deserve, then not only will you be able to live an exceptionally comfortable life, but you’ll keep coming back, and referring your friends, co-workers and family members to me. (And when you do that, then _I’m_ able to live a comfortable life, too!) So... what can you expect if you decide to become a client of mine? Well, first of all, you can expect to be listened to _and_ heard, and be completely respected, regardless of your age, gender, fitness level, cultural, religious or sexual orientation or identity, any physical challenges, limitations or disabilities, or the amount of melanin in your skin. You can expect the man responsible for your care to be someone who’s highly trained and constantly learning more, who’ll be aware of and both sensitive and responsive to the subtle differences between your stressed or injured tissues, while working on you as a massage therapist, or your circumstances, while working with you as personal empowerment coach and/or energy worker, and who will really and truly be interested in how much better he can help your world to be, both during your session, itself, and during the days and weeks that’ll follow it. And you can expect that I will do my level best to make each and every session you ever receive from me one of the finest massages you will ever experience, without undue pain during it or marked discomfort, afterwards. Now, there’s one subject that occasionally seems to need clarification, and that’s the subject of “personal boundaries”... Out of respect for both you and I, there are five areas of the body that I don’t come in contact with during the course of my massages, and these are the eyeballs, mouth, breasts, genitals and anus. (Enough said?) Thank you for understanding. The thing I love most about my work (and that keeps me inspired to keep offering it) is how people come to my office complaining, with their bodies and/or spirits either in pain or visibly tense, and/or struggling with limited ranges of motion, and then leave, 60 to 90 minutes later, in far greater comfort and ease, smiling from ear to ear, and moving so much more freely that they're practically floating! And on top of all that, I even get paid for it! How could it possibly get any better than that?
