Thank you for your interest in me and my massage therapy practice. Below I've provided a brief summary of my training, education and philosophy, and I'm happy to answer any other questions you might have. I take great pleasure in my work and hope to be of service to you. I'm a fully licensed massage therapist in Washington, DC and a current member of the Associated Bodywork and Massage Professionals.
Massage sessions are held at my nicely appointed private studio near Logan Circle where you'll be made to feel welcome and at home. With blackout shades, subdued lighting, sleep masks, comfortable furnishings and distinct, hand-picked music, I create an exceptionally peaceful environment for you to relax and receive treatment.
My clients range from athletes recovering from training or injury, to those wanting relief from acute or chronic physical conditions, and others simply looking to de-stress and experience deep relaxation. My touch is intuitive, firm and soothing. While many come to me for my ability to deliver strong and satisfying deep pressure, I will happily adjust to your specific needs and preferences.
Below are excerpts from unsolicited emails and texts sent by my clients and posted here with their express permission. Hey Jim - I wanted to take a moment to thank you for welcoming me to your practice. Your craft and your multidisciplinary expertise are phenomenal, and your home is really comfortable, welcoming and safe - three items that you yourself bring to the table.
I work regularly by appointment only. If you're interested to schedule a session or have any questions, the best thing to do is to send me an email or text as I check these more often than voicemail. I'd ask that you include a brief introduction along with any additional information you would deem important.

I highly recommend. Jim is very good at communicating to make sure his pressure level is comfortable, that you're doing okay and ensuring that the entire experience is beneficial. After 90 minutes of an incredible massage, I walked about feeling incredibly relaxed for the first time since pre-Covid. The real treat though was the next morning when I woke up fully refreshed. I haven't slept that well in years.

I have been working with Jim since May, it has been a great experience. I had an issue with my left hip, in a few sessions Jim was able to pinpoint the problem and identify a way to fix it. After the session the hip pain went away but more importantly I understood what was causing the problem so I can prevent it from happening again.

Great therapeutic massage! Jim has an instinctive feel for muscles that need work, the right pressure, and so on, and he also listens attentively and with great comprehension to your reports of what needs work. He certainly helped my problem areas that resulted from a bulging cervical disc, easing the residual tightness and discomfort that medical intervention did not address.

I was in town visiting family and found Jim on Google. As a massage therapist from Utah, his skills were outstanding! Pressure and flow were parallel with some of the best spas in the world. I would recommend his service to all those who come to DC. His studio is extremely comfortable, he uses fantastic products and the whole experience was just what I needed after a long flight and busy schedule in our Nations Capital.

Jim creates a relaxed and comfortable environment and tailors the experience to you. As a runner, Jim has focused on my legs: stretching and working through knots. He manages to get at deep tissue without exceeding my pain tolerance, but I'm sure he can go deeper. I always feel better, looser and more relaxed in the hours and days after a session.

I've had many massages over my lifetime -- here in the states at posh resorts, medical spas and on international travels (Japan, India, Italy, Thailand, Singapore, Peru, S. Korea, Germany, Slovenia...). I wasn't sure what to expect since my first session with Jim was a gift, but I trusted my friend who said I wouldn't regret it. Suffice it to say I was absolutely blown away! Jim's place is incredibly warm and inviting...you walk into his loft and immediately feel like you're in a Balinese yoga ashram...calming music, candles, lighting...beautifully decorated...chilled cucumber water on his gorgeous
