"After COVID I’d forgotten how good I feel after a great massage and Michael fits that description exactly. I’m apprehensive when going to a new massage therapist but Michael put me immediately at ease with a thorough chat about my aches and pains. I opted for the 60-minute Swedish massage with some aromatherapy. I’m a little shy to say anything when a massage becomes too intense but because Michael was inviting feedback, I felt empowered to say when and where something was too much. The massage rooms are clean with no frills. I’m used to going to a salon where there’s an ever-changing roster of massage therapists. I like this new model of going for a specific therapist and paying them directly. The focus is on the massage, not being offered some cup of weird tea that I always turn down. I’ll be going back."

"Michael is a world class massage therapist and Reiki practitioner. I’ve had massages from around the world and Michael is simply the best. He has a calming and inviting demeanor that you sense the moment you set foot in his presence. His ability to detect pain, tension, and trauma throughout the body is a skill that only a few possess and Michael is lucky to have this gift. I am a personal trainer with a bachelors and master’s degree in exercise science and I recommend Michael to all my clients who want to maximize recovery and relieve stress. Thank you for everything, Michael!"

"I have been a client of Michael’s for many years now. Michael is an amazing massage therapist. He consistently checks in with me when we start our sessions and asks if there is anything in particular we need to work on, and from there he takes care of my body. His combination of pressure and technique are perfect for me. His new studio is very nice. It’s clean, relaxing and very welcoming. Highly recommended!"

"I’ve been seeing Michael for months now. He is absolutely wonderful. Michael has a healing touch! Just laying down on the table a sense of calm and peace come over me just knowing I’m in good hands! Michael always asks if there’s anything that needs special attention. I continued going even with a broken elbow, and he was so gentle! You cannot go wrong booking a massage with him. You will walk out relaxed and at peace!"

"Michael is truly one of the best massage therapists in the city. He's professional, and first rate. Comfortable setting with aroma therapy if desired and soothing music. His technique is top notch. His methods used are Reiki, Swedish, Deep Tissue. Michael is also a fantastic personal trainer and having your trainer also be your massage therapist is a plus!"

"Michael is an amazing LMT and Reiki Master. Whether you need a great massage or want to have your aura cleansed, Michael is your guy! His rates are very reasonable, and he doesn't rush through his sessions. He is highly recommended."

"Michael is a dedicated healer. I have severe fibromyalgia and other chronic pain issues. Michael has taken the time to get to know me and understand my pain history. Michael has the presence of a true holistic healer. His massage techniques truly have been a therapeutic touch for pain relief. I can tell by his caring touch he cares for his clients and approaches each person in the namaste honor. He is very reasonable in his fee and services. I feel it would be a very hard task in finding a more genuine, caring, skilled massage therapist than Michael. Thank you my friend for helping me live a life with lesser chronic pain!"

"I’ve been going to Michael for years and you will not find a better massage therapist that is attentive, thorough and professional as Michael. If you are having muscle related pain or just need an hour to unwind do yourself a favor and book a session. I walk out always feeling re-energized."

"I've shopped around for LMTs in Chicago since moving here and Mike is the best I've found so far. He's great at listening to the body and finding any problem areas, as well as knowing when to vary his pressure to suit your needs. He'll check in with you during the massage to make sure everything's okay. For me, somehow he's able to hit that sweet spot between relaxation and deep tissue that I always need. On top of that, he couldn't be any nicer of a guy to talk to. Book him now before his calendar fills up!"

"He is a talented Reiki Master. Had chronic pain in my hips for years. Tried PT, whole 30 diet, weight loss, and meds with no relief. Michael was able to finally bring me healing and pain relief. He is amazing!!"
