My primary focus is in modalities dealing with structural bodywork and injury rehabilitation. If you are experiencing pain from an auto accident, sports injury, surgery, or chronic aches and pains, I would love to be a part of your recovery process. Do you want to experience bodywork with longer lasting effects?
Let's talk about scheduling the 10 series of Structural Integration! Just like you, I wear many hats. Husband, father, therapist, outdoorsman, the list goes on. I enjoy an active lifestyle and maintaining my body is essential if I wish to continue the activities that bring me happiness. The maintenance regimen that I follow includes daily exercise, proper diet, chiropractic work, regular massage, and other forms of alternative medicine.

Structural Integration is a bodywork therapy that aligns and balances the body structure and tissue by focusing on the fascia, the connective tissue that wraps, protects, and connects all of the body's muscles and organs. Also referred to as Rolfing, Structural Integration was the life work of Dr. Ida P. Rolf.
The days of seeing massage as nothing more than a luxury service or pampering for vacationers are passed. Therapeutic massage offers many health benefits that go far beyond simple relaxation.
Some potential benefits of massage therapy include relief from low-back pain; lessening of tension in shoulders, upper back, and neck; increased range of motion in joints; improved posture; better circulation; relief from migraine and other headache pain; release of tension in hips and legs; feelings of relaxation and well-being; improved immune function; decreased recovery time from injuries and surgery; and more.

As a desk worker, I signed up for the 10-session structural integration program with Mike, looking mostly for neck and back relief and posture improvement. But Mike provides so much more than that. While going through the stretches and massage-like treatment, you also get an eye-opening education on the body and a re-learning of best practices for posture and everyday movement in general (walking, sitting, standing, bending, reaching, breathing, etc.). Some of the sessions involved procedures that required me to focus more attentively on my breathing to get through the more intense parts of the

Mike is very professional and personable, he listened closely to all the issues I said I was having and addressed them all very well. I felt like a brand new person the next day. You can tell that he’s very knowledgeable and truly wants you to feel great after seeing him. Would definitely recommend!

The 10 series structural integration is turning out to be the best thing I've ever done for my body. Mike is very knowledgeable, professional, and makes me feel completely at ease. I'm only 3 sessions in and already cannot believe the difference I feel. I highly recommend structural integration with Mike to anyone dealing with chronic pain.

I went through the 10 session Structural Integration series with Mike. It was an awesome experience and I definitely recommend him.
I had been dealing with chronic pain since I was young because of poor posture. That, coupled with multiple injuries made it easy for my joints to dislocate and scar tissue to build up, creating a cycle of more… misalignment, injurie and pain. After a couple of sessions with Mike, I was already seeing lasting improvement in injuries that years of massage, physical therapy and chiropractic work didn’t help with. After all 10 sessions, I feel amazing! My

I went to Melinda with some lower back pain and a sore calf muscle. (I had pulled that muscle about 2 months ago). I immediately felt a freer range of motion after the massage as well as pain relief. She also gave me instructions for some exercises to further heal the calf muscle. She is very knowledgeable and professional. I would highly recommend her.

I've been to massage therapists every month or two for years. Melinda is by far the most experienced and effective of the several dozen I've used. In the past I traditionally went to loosen up tight muscles and feel more relaxed. I've observed that regular visits with Melinda are also helping me stand up straighter, achieve better posture, thereby better balancing loads on my muscles and bones. Long term stiffness is being replaced by more flexibility. I feel like I've had a challenging workout after one of her massages, but I notice I'm more mobile and ready for my next physical activity. I've

Getting my body back in line with a 10 series of structural integration is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made for my self. Self care is so important and Melinda understands exactly how great of a gift it is. She knows the body and anatomy beyond belief, by far the most knowledgeable body worker I’ve ever experienced. Well worth it!
