“Now, there is massage therapy and then there is bodywork and you'll want to know the difference!
LOCATION:
In a nicely kept brick building with plenty of street parking in midtown. The building is right on the corner so you can't miss it.
THERAPIST:
Hunter is a great guy I've had the pleasure of meeting through acrobatic yoga. This is an activity that draws so many different kinds of people from all sorts of backgrounds and Hunter fit the mold. Kind, accepting, gentle with his speech and sturdy with his hands so when he told me about his massage practice and that it was geared towards athletes, I was all in. Especially since I sustained injuries in my military service that will affect me for life.
EXPERIENCE:
Now, I don't want to just go in and say that it was perfect, but dammit! That massage was super good! First off, the room was very clean and nearly kept. Hunter had informed me that he would be changing rooms and showed me to the new one which is much more spacious and has a nice little window. That's towards the end of March 2019 so very soon. Anyway, about that massage. I like a stronger, firmer massage that can really get down and work those tissues. As an athlete, I have a bit of muscle for people to go through so I usually need to tell them to do more, but I didn't have to with Hunter. It's like he knows that already and he went in and I was like, Yaaasss! And just when I'm thinking it can't get any better, this dude start stretching me. I don't think there's anybody that loves stretching more than me. I stretch everyday. I will show up to work late because I had a decision to either do the stretches or make it to work on time and I chose the stretches. And I would choose em again. So here I am on this table and feeling Tony the Tiger great and when I got off that table I felt like doing something. Usually I will get off a massage table feeling very relaxed and ready to go to sleep. Not that I'm saying I wasn't relaxed. I'm just saying that I felt more than relaxed. I was energized and ready to move. This is why I say you've got to know the difference between a massage and Bodywork. This felt good. Real good.”
