I have been so overwhelmed by John’s power to heal and care for me I wanted to share my experience with anyone considering a massage with him. I run my own business which often means I’m working a lot and don’t necessarily make time for self-care. My job is also labor intensive, sometimes keeping me on my feet for up to 10 or 12 hours. John always checks in with me to see how I am doing, where I need attention, and what type of treatment I feel most comfortable receiving. After each visit with John, my feet are smiling and my body is giving me the thumbs up to do this again and again. If you are looking for someone who is not only talented at what they do, but also in touch with your needs and what care is best for you, give John a call. He is a kind and lovely person and truly gifted at what he does. Sandra C.
In a Valley overwhelmed with gifted massage therapists, how does one pick? After tormenting myself for years with this lucky quandary, I’ve lit upon John. It’s his particular culmination of strength, years’ expertise, Eastern- plus Western-approaches, impressive space and table, fatherly intuition with wizardly energy, and quiet intensity that have secured my loyalty. Too, he’s changed my life by teaching me Qui Gong and insisting I do it everyday, even if it means I won’t require his care as much. Thank you, John. Jenn Dorfield, South Hadley
Ruth M. says: Thanks, John, for a real Christmas treat with the hot stone massage. Your Presence was a true Present to me, as always. I felt really relaxed and whole when I left.
Denise R. says: I have been booking John for massage therapy whenever possible over the last several years. I feel relaxed and able to move my neck and entire body with ease afterwards. He has amazing skill and healing power. I would recommend John for massage therapy, crainio-sacral, and any other services listed. You will feel like a new and improved person afterwards! Just what I needed.
Jonathan P. says: John has many techniques that he seems equally adept with. But he’s also very intuitive and seems to know just where to go. I had a great massage this time and had an incredible cranio-sacral session a few months ago. Highly Recommended!
“After three years of chronic hip pain, there was a change-an opening in how my hip felt after my session with John. It felt different (better) by the next day and by the following day, it was gone. It’s been a month without any pain.”

“Fibromyalgia is not an easy disorder to live with. John’s treatments have been instrumental in keeping me limber enough to enjoy the outdoors the way I like to, hiking in my boots.”
Tammy Olszewski, West Springfield
“I am grateful to be a client of John’s for many years… He is a superb clinician-professional, caring, knowledgeable with steady, intuitive healing energy. I enjoy John’s deep tissue massage and focus on stressed areas of my body. He is very perceptive and skillful at releasing parts of my body that are misaligned and/or in pain. Over the years, John’s skillful hands have helped me tremendously with healing herniated discs, a torn rotator cuff and a detached bicep. After each treatment, I leave feeling amazed!”

“John has a healing gift using compassion and artistry as he helps others to heal- especially me.”
Barbara J., Springfield
“John possesses that rare skill of blending art and science in his practice of therapeutic massage. From years of experience as both a nurse and a patient, I have come to recognize this oftentimes elusive harmony of expert knowledge and finely tuned intuition as a mark of the very best health practitioners, regardless of their fields of specialty. I arrived for my first appointment with John on referral from my doctor for treatment of chronic back pain. Although I was acquainted with traditional forms of massage, this was to be my first experience with crainiosacral therapy with massage. Within the first few minutes, I knew I’d found a gifted therapist. By the end of the hour, I had such an amazing experience, I doubt I shall ever forget the overwhelming physical sensation of release in my spine and relief throughout my whole body. I am now a regular and devoted client.”

“I was wondering how I was going to play golf again this year with my back so stiff and sore. Massage has taken that question out of my game!”
Charlie Marks, Springfield
“One morning I woke up and could not see out of my right eye. My fear turned to hope when I went to see John for a craniosacral therapy treatment. My sight returned after the treatment. My doctor said I lost my sight because of stress. Now I see what stress can do but also know there is something I can do about it.”
