"I was lucky enough to participate in the TransRockies event this year which consisted of 6 days of running 113 miles over 21000 feet of elevation. That type of running puts a strain on your body and luckily, there were massage therapists on site to help alleviate some of that strain. Someone told me that I just "HAD" to sign up for time with Stephen, so I did and I spent just about every day, 30 minutes a day with him! He was able to focus on my main problem areas and help me relax the muscles that needed it the most and get me ready for the next day. Stephen truly did a fantastic job and I believe that if it were not for him, I don't think I could have made it out alive from this race!"

"Stephen has a gift!! He has very intelligent hands and uses movement to get into the deeper muscles or trouble spots. He is very professional and the way he presents his massage sessions makes you really feel relaxed. Well worth the money!!"
