Hi, I’m Matthew and I’ve been practicing massage professionally since 2018.
So what do I practice? I use a combination of Deep Tissue and Acupressure. My general philosophy on massage I’ve broken down into three phases: Rest. Relax. Rejuvenate.
Rest is slowing things down to begin recovery. This is a change of state in which one puts aside the day’s stress, and where everything begins.
Relax is where things get interesting. This is typically when the more active work is done, such as Deep Tissue. As such it is not always what one might imagine as ‘relaxing’, but the goal is to get to that ideal by working out whatever issues are causing stress.
Rejuvenate represents the state in which one is almost sleep, where the body reaches homeostasis and begins to heal itself. This is when Acupressure is at its most effective.
When it comes to sessions, I request that you come in as comfortable clothes as possible, as I do not use oil or lotion and work over clothes.
If you have any questions feel free to email me at thunderouswinds@gmail.com.
