acute/chronic injuries. Currently, he offers full-body Myofascial Release,
Swedish, Trigger-Point Therapy, Deep Tissue, Lomi-Lomi, Hot Stone,
Pregnancy, and Chair massage. He is certified in Myofascial Release massage

chronic/acute stress, tension, and pain while increasing range and ease of
motion. |

| *Myofascial Release Massage* Fascial tissue (a thin, white membrane which
wraps all musculature) is most elastic in the young. Soft, pliable,
stretchy, and slick it serves as a lubricant but for various reasons such as
injury and aging it becomes hard, rigid, dense, fibrous, inelastic, and
shortened. Myofascial Release Massage will help begin to return fascial
tissue to an earlier, healthier state through very hard/heavy/deep massage
without lubrication.
*Lomi Lomi* A flowing, vibrant, and deeply relaxing all body massage.
Hands are often used clasped and forearms are used in long fluid strokes of
varying rhythm and intensity up and down and all around the body. Lomi Lomi
increases circulation, sense of well-being, and self-awareness while
unifying body and mind providing stress relief.
