History

Established in 1999.

I have been in independent practice since 1999, working full-​time as a massage therapist since 2003. Since graduating from the rigorous Brian Utting School of Massage 1,000-hour licensing program in 1998, I have completed more than 600 hours of continuing education. I am certified in orthopedic massage. I am also nationally certified by the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB) and am a member of the Amercian Academy of Pain Management (AAPM) and the American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA). I also teach a very fun and popular couples massage class about once a month and publish a website for officer workers — offi​cerat​.com

Meet the Business Owner

Larry S.

Business Owner

My first career was in college textbook publishing. That job wrecked my back, sending me on a journey into orthopedic, chiropractic, physical therapy, massage therapy and many other types of medical care. It also motivated me to learn more about my body and how to care for it. My publishing background and my personal self-​care journey explain why I offer so much self-​care advice to my clients and patients. That and the fact that I genuinely want my folks to be healthy, relaxed, and pain free at all times.

Very knowledgable, you can tell he actually cares about the work he does for his clients. I went in for strained muscles in my upper back (due to strenuous work outs) and he was able to give me sound advice on home treatment as well as anatomical musings about the affected area. Overall I felt very comfortable during my treatment by Larry and confident about his knowledge and expertise. Would recommend to anybody needing work done.

I have been dealing with sciatica pain since my son was born 3 months ago. I have been working with a physical therapist once a week which was very help, and then a chiropractor, which made things worse. After one massage treatment with Larry I feel a hundred times better.
Not only is he extremely talented at his craft, he is also a very interesting person with knowledge in many areas of business and especially anatomy. I felt like I had been going there for years. Very comfortable and relaxing. I will return soon and hope to learn even more about how this all works.

Larry is a fantastic massage therapist. He is very knowledgeable and professional. I have a disc problem and was having trouble sitting, standing and walking straight. I got a referral from my chiropractor to get massages from him, and Larry is doing as much or more than my doctor in helping me feel normal again. He is trained and licensed to give medical massages, and I always feel like I’m in good hands when I go to him.

My neck went out again this week and I recall how amazing it was to be able to go to him for therapeutic massage. I worked with Larry for over a year and he was able to help me keep my neck and back from retreating into the «Seattle Slouch» that I developed over the years of protecting my neck from the cold and face from the rain.
Larry is the first massage therapist to help me understand that deep tissue massage doesn’t mean that you have to leave feeling bruised and beaten in order for it to be effective, which was my previous experience.
Larry spends a lot of time with his continuing education, which I think is important as more and more is learned about the mind-​body connection. I highly recommend Larry, especially if you are looking for therapeutic massage, although I’m sure he could just as well give a relaxation massage (most of my therapeutic massages were quite relaxing).

Larry has been my massage therapist for at least a year now. He does great work on my shoulders and neck. Since I’ve been visiting himmy migraines have greatly improved. As another client has said Larry has hands like «little heaters». I always look forward to my appointments with Larry and feel refreshed when I leave (not like a pile of mush like some massage leave you).

Professional and gifted, Larry is a referral source for me, in that when I can’t send patients to my own massage therapists, I send them to Larry. He’s good all the way round and have lots of people who like him after I send them there.
