Massage Testimonials

"I've been a student, practitioner, and recipient of massage for 17 years, and I'm very particular in choosing my massage therapist. Larry is the best I've found. He’s very knowledgeable, grounded, and tuned into his client. He continues to learn new massage techniques that make him even more expert in his craft. Through my sessions with Larry I've come to trust in the healing power of massage."

"I went to Larry for the first time for treatment of an ankle sprain. He relieved most of the pain during the first session, and my ankle healed quickly. It's been about 7 months since the sprain, and I haven't had any recurring sprains or weakness in the ankle, despite being very active.
"Larry is professional, respectful, and attentive. I've never had a massage therapist listen to me more intently than he does. I can finally stop hunting around for a massage therapist I trust!"

"Thank you so much for the couples massage class! It was a wonderful bonding experience. We left the class relaxed yet rejuvinated and enjoyed every moment! Your personal attention to each couple and specific instruction in particular instances was accurate and understandable. We look forward to taking future classes with you!"

"I appreciate that Larry works with me to find the right techniques and pressure to meet my needs while still making the massage a serene and relaxing experience. The benefits of his massages extend into my day-to-day wellness because Larry also helps me to understand what's going on with my muscles and joints and to identify habits potentially causing aches and knots."

My wife and I really enjoyed Larry's couples massage class. We spent a day in downtown Seattle doing the tourist thing, and then we went to the couples massage class. Larry is a great teacher, and we enjoyed learning from him. We both really enjoyed Larry's low-key approach and his through knowledge of massage. We both highly recommend Larry's couples massage Class.

"Larry did an amazing job at making me feel comfortable and relaxed at each session. He helped me get back to a normal routine after my accident. Larry was my first and will be my last massage therapist!"

"Larry really listened to what my concerns/needs were, and then used his knowledge to explain how he would proceed, given all the information. I felt as though he was invested in figuring out if treatment would be useful for my injury, and he explained what he was doing as he went. He was also open to my questions."

"Very professional manner and attitude . . . Thorough, sensitive, very effective."

"I went to Larry for a general 'tune up' massage and gave him special instructions, 'Don't bother with my right arm. It hurts like hell, so much so that I physically can't reach over into my car's back seat and pick up a book.' In his quiet reassuring manner Larry said, 'Let me have a look at that.' I must confess to a degree of skepticism when he DIDN'T massage my arm but went to the scapula and worked in, under and around it. Amazingly, he CORRECTED it! When I left his studio I sat in my driver's seat, threw my arm over the seat and, PAIN FREE, was actually was able to pick up a book in the back seat for the first time in many months.
"Larry brings the ability to intellectually engage me in his massage work. I so appreciate understanding what and why he is doing what he does."

"Larry makes you feel relaxed the moment you walk into the room. As he talks to you and prepares for your massage, you can tell he really has an interest in not only what's going on with your body, but in who you are. You find yourself feeling comfortably assured that you will be receiving a wonderful therapeutic experience."
