-> I ask my clients to arrive at least 15 minutes before their session to fill out a health intake form. The form and clipboard/pen will be on the bench when you arrive. This form allows me to know about your health history, and to gather more information that would be pertinent for your session. At the beginning of the session, I’ll review your intake form, ask relevant questions, and define the goals for your session.
-> As Covid has been changing, I want to protect my clients and myself: I’ll wear a mask during our session. As a client, you can wear a mask, or not.

Landon
Available at the Duboce Triangle Location on:
Fridays: 1:00 PM – 8:15 PM
As a former college Rugby player whose leg was (shattered/snapped/broken) in two places over ten years ago, learning how to alleviate tremendous pain and sustainably keep it away quickly became crucial to my existence. By now, I have managed to take the pain away permanently and seek to heal others in a similar fashion: self-care via monthly massage, yoga often (or any exercise that best works for you), and mental + bodily support as best you can. Each massage given is unique to every client, so let’s work on what’s best for you.
