In Patrick's Words:

SUMMARY

What motivated me to become a massage therapist was that I like to help people! Massage therapy seemed like the perfect way to help people and see immediate results. I love it when a repeat client comes in and I can see the progress we are making towards their goal.

EXPERIENCED WITH

Sports Massage, Neuromuscular, Trigger Point, Pin & Stretch, neck, shoulders

SUCCESS STORIES

During my time at massage school, I had a client that needed their left SCM removed due to an illness. It was my first time seeing this client and caring for a client with a muscle missing. He complained of some major neck pain due to his body compensating for that missing muscle. I focused on his posterior neck and scalenes to hopefully reduce his pain. After finishing up the rest of his body, I asked how he felt, and he said it was one of the best massages that he had gotten from a student.

WHAT MAKES YOUR MASSAGE UNIQUE?

When massaging my clients, after warming up the general area we are working on I like to go directly to their problem areas. I really take into account what my client has said to me and written in their intake. My top priority is to make my clients feel that their needs are met swiftly and efficiently.

WHAT DO YOU MOST APPRECIATE WHEN RECEIVING MASSAGE?

I love how I feel after receiving a massage. I’m always disappointed when I have to get off the table. During a massage I really appreciate how you can tell that your therapist cares about your well-being. Receiving caring touch at my preferred pressure really makes my pain go away and brings peace to me.

WHAT KEEPS YOU PASSIONATE ABOUT MASSAGE?

The change that I am able to see in my clients is what keeps me passionate. I love seeing repeat clients so I can see the progress we’ve made! Even if I only see a client for one session, If I’m able to make something in their body feel better or if their mental state has improved, I’m happy!
