I think this is the most relaxed I have been in ages. Definitely an expert in his arena. I've already booked my next visit!

I am both impressed and grateful that in our aftercare interview Ben was able to describe the conditions he noticed at the beginning and then detailed the steps he took to address those conditions. I don’t believe I’ve ever experienced this with another massage therapist.

Ben is definitely a healer. He really tunes into what your body’s needs are, and he's very personable and caring.
