SF Body Today

I’m a doctor and a distance runner, so I’m pretty particular when it comes to massage therapy. John is the perfect fit for anyone who wants a professional sports massage that combines deep tissue with focused stretching. He was able to get to the bottom of my IT band trouble; I limped in to his studio… and walked out with increased range of motion and less pain in my knee.
John is extremely professional, polite, and easy to talk to. I have already referred 3 of my closest friends (also athletes).

OMG! I got a massage from John at a event at the Embarcadero Center and was floored! He went right to my sore spots and smoothed them away like butta! He’s an amazing masseuse and a super cool person, before I knew it, I felt like we were old friends! I’m definitely going for him again. and again.and again!

Being a lifelong athlete and one who pushes my body as far I can get it, naturally I have had lots of massages in my life. I have had some great ones, some good, and some mediocre bodywork in the past. I can honestly say John gave me the most amazing massage I can remember.
On the surface, John is a lovely soft spoken young man. He makes you feel totally comfortable right off the bat. He is certified through the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork. Trained in Maui and licensed in San Francisco and Oregon… I was impressed that at a young age, he already has 4 years of massage experience and is so professional!
He listened to what I thought were my main issues and then went to work on the whole body… thoroughly working out all the hideously knotted muscles from my head to my feet! Literally!
I woke up the next morning expecting to be sore or to have the usual sluggish post-​massage feeling but NO! Not only did I feel like I had a brand new body to work with, but my energy level was so high that I was able to workout for an extra hour and noticed all my movements were more fluid from having some of the deep tightness massaged out!
I am booking him weekly on Fridays to work out the knots from the week’s running, lifting, jumping, riding, dancing… etc. If you are an athlete (or just act like one on the weekends) you will get the best sports massage of your life with John!
