Mo’s cheerful, grounded demeanor enhances his knowledge and skills in helping you align your body and spirit. My posture, balance, strength and agility have benefited from my work with Mo. And, my feet are happier too!

I would recommend Mo to everyone. He has given me the best massages as well as gently guided me through the an ankle injury. He is kind, patient and most of all extremely knowable about human movement.

I'd been going to Mo for years for his over-the-top excellent massages just to spoil myself. I've been to a LOT of massage therapists, and he has them all beat, hands down. Then I got hit by a car while out bicycling. Things did not look good. I was making no progress, and my physical therapists were starting to make "adapt to your new body" noises. So I went to Mo, and after just the first massage session I made a great leap forward! Every time I went I would make a great leap forward! I started going weekly to maintain, and my PTs were amazed at the turnaround. All the way through my recovery, Mo was there keeping my body open to release and change and balance, and then six months later coaching me on ways to strengthen that I could fit into my day at the desk when I was finally able to go back to work. Now, two years out, you would never know I had been bed bound for two months, on a walker for another two months, then hobbling around like the hunchback of Notre Dame for a year after that. I never would have gotten off that walker without Mo. I never would have been able to hike again. I probably never would have been able to go to work again, when I really think about it. The man is gifted. And kind. And intuitive. And fun to talk with. Give him a try, you'll be glad you did!

Just say YES!Each and every time that I say YES! to functional wellness from the massage fingertips of Mo—everyone in my life benefits. It reaches beyond deep body release, meridian activation and clearing, and gentle organ detox to emotional, mental and even spiritual reconnection and rebalance. I come in with all the raw human emotion and experience that I can articulate and Mo connects the people, resources and websites to bring integration to the experience that I have on the table. No other massage therapist has his unique set experiential education and intellectual genius. Get some Mo! Your children will thank you and your partner will encourage you to go back.

I went in for a massage, and was greeted with warmth and sincerity from Kathy. I received my massage from Mo, who is intelligent, intuitive, and simply one of those people who is clearly passionate about his work. I will return soon for an appointment with Mo for functional wellness. Based on the massage alone, I know that my body, my strength, my "functional wellness," is already significantly, markedly improved.

Mo is amazing! His massage is professional, customized, and simply the best experience you could ask for. He is knowledgeable in all facets of the body and offers great advice if you ask. You can tell he truly wishes you to have the best experience possible. It's just not a business to him and that is what I most appreciate!

If you’re thinking about calling Mo, you should. I’ve been working out weekly with him since September and I’ve also been a massage client for years. Learning from Mo is one of the best things I’ve ever done for myself. His knowledge of the body and how it naturally moves is unlike any professional I have met (and I'm an RN and yoga teacher). The movement sessions are the safest and most effective practice I’ve experienced - I’m looking and feeling better than I have in years. He’s always professional and on time which I really appreciate with my busy schedule. I recommend him to my friends and clients on a regular basis. A session with him is 1000x better than a yoga class.
