My Journey in Massage

My earliest experience with massage was as a teenager racing bicycles in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. I read an article on self-massage and began working on my own legs in order to recover between training and racing.

A few years later I was working on professional and Olympic cyclists with skills I had developed on my own. This was in the late 80’s and there was little in the way of education. Cycling was what brought me and my wife, Pam, to Colorado in 1991.

Fast forward to 1999 and I enrolled at Boulder College of Massage Therapy and earned certification and an associates degree.

December of 2001 I opened my business and have been growing and developing since then. It’s now 25 years and somewhere well beyond 12,000 hands on hours.

I’ve dropped some photos of me and journeys over the years that give insight into my interests and life. I will let them tell some of my story.
