David Holden LMT Massage Therapist | Massage Educator “There’s a quiet mastery in everything he does.

It’s the little details: the way he moves around the table, the way he checks in, the way your body responds after. You don’t realize how good it can be until you’ve worked with him.”

With over 14 years of experience, I help clients find lasting relief from chronic pain, stress, and muscle dysfunction.

The season moves fast — deadlines, gatherings, expectations.

But your nervous system doesn’t run on holiday magic.
It needs care, comfort, and stillness to reset.

Choose a small kindness for yourself today:

A walk. A nap. A moment of silence in a warm room.
Let the world wait while you catch up to your breath.

Self-care is how you return to the celebration — fully present. ✨

The holidays come with long lists and short moments of rest.

Here’s your reminder: you are allowed to slow down.

You are allowed to take up space.
You are allowed to put yourself back on the list.
Self-care isn’t selfish — it’s how you stay whole through the chaos.

Take a breath. Unclench your jaw. Let your shoulders lower.
You deserve ease, too. 🤍

This weekend, Aug 8-10, the studio will be closed.
After four full weeks of holding space every day, it’s my turn to pause and replenish.
Rest is not absence - it’s regeneration.
It isn’t a luxury. Pausing heals. Sometimes, stopping is sacred.

Thank you for understanding.
See you next week, with steady hands and renewed presence.

🎉 We hit 50 FIVE-STAR reviews on Google.
50 out of 50. Not 49. Not 48. Not “almost perfect.”
A real-deal perfect streak.

If you’ve ever been on my table, you know I don’t cut corners.
Apparently, that’s been felt.

To every client who’s shared their experience, thank you. Your words help others find the care they need. They also help me keep doing what I love.

“After a rotator cuff injury, timing—and consistency—matter.”

In this podcast clip, I answer one of the most common questions I hear: How often should I come in for massage after a shoulder injury?

The short answer?
Not too soon—and not too scattered.

Once you're past the acute phase, regular massage (usually every 1–2 weeks) can help reduce compensatory tension, improve mobility, and support long-term healing.

The goal isn’t just pain relief—it’s helping your body move better for good.

“At its core, massage therapy is about relieving pain—plain and simple.”

In this clip from my recent podcast interview, I talk about what really drives my work as a massage therapist. It’s not about luxury—it’s about helping people finally feel better in their own bodies.

Because when pain lets go, everything else gets a little easier.

“Not every injury is ready for massage—especially in the early stages.”

In this clip, I explain why timing matters when it comes to rotator cuff injuries (and really any soft tissue damage). Massage can do wonders—but only when your body is ready for it.

👉 The truth?

Massage is not appropriate during stages 1 and 2 of soft tissue healing. It’s best introduced in stages 3 and 4—when the body is moving from inflammation to recovery.

Knowing when not to treat is just as important as knowing how.
