To tell the truth, I'm actually not a fan of massages. I personally haven't had the greatest massage experiences in the past- they were either too painful or the massage therapist doesn't listen and works on an area where I have asked them to avoid before the session.
With Matt though, I'm happy to say that I didn't have such issues! Matt is actually a rock-climber, so I expected him to have very rough, hard hands, but that was not the case. He also remembered to avoid my calves where I had some inflammation that I did not want aggravated.
I would say my favorite part about the experience was that Matt was very open to communication. I could tell him what I needed and he would be attentive. In general, Matt is simply a very chill guy and is very down to earth. Super easy to chat to.
Matt just opened this current office location, and although the space is quite small, I found it to be quite cozy and welcoming. Matt is very professional and even offered to show me some stretches after our session that could help me out. I've been doing a lot of driving (I just took a road-trip across the US and back) and I also am also a rock-climber, so my hamstrings and wrists are quite stiff. Matt was able to recommend a couple stretches for me to do on a regular basis to deal specifically with those issues.
I would definitely recommend Matt if you're in need of a massage therapist. In my opinion, finding the right therapist is not easy, and I don't think any therapist is the right fit for everyone, but I think it's definitely worth it to check him out and see if you would be the right fit for each other.
Oh, I almost forgot one more thing- He mentioned he offered topical CBD massages. I didn't get a chance to try, but will definitely ask for it in my next session! read more
