Hi, I'm David. I'm a Licensed Massage Therapist in the State of Missouri.  Massage is a true enjoyment for me and I'm fortunate to have some amazing clients.  I've been practicing since I was 21, but massage/bodywork has been a part of my life since I was a child.  My professional life started when I took a course to deal with my fear of touching people.  Because of this, I tend to be very aware of my clients needs, almost empathic in my approach. I've been practicing full-time for more than 10 years.

 I've trained at various schools around the world, including the Famous Body Electric in California.  Knowing that, please understand that I trained under their Professional Massage program.  I'm also Certified in their Breathwork program.  My most recent studies have been working with pain management from the aspect of the nervous system within the muscular frame. Some other training I've done is the Mattes Method of stretching which clients particularly like and really aid in the healing process and realignment of body structure, muscularly, after injuries. I've also trained in Thailand at the Chiang Mai School of Thai Massage, where I received my certification in Thai Massage, of which I'm very proud.  It is a great technique. I have dozens of certificates in a variety of techniques/modalities. If there is a particular technique you are looking for or interested in give me a shout and I'll give you more details.

I'm very big on taking care of myself and my body. I work out practically everyday and I also offer advice and honest evaluation of diets and workout regimens of my clients, if asked. Anything to help my clients take care of themselves, I offer my experience and training in that area.
