Overview

I specialize in a very relaxing and invigorating deep tissue sports massage.

You will experience a unique blend of several techniques developed through 12 years of training and massaging thousands of clients. Sessions can be intertwined with assisted stretching techniques designed to release pressure and stress from your core areas. All of my techniques are derived from coaching crossfit, body building and yoga classes and private individuals for many, many years.

Relax and experience some intense body compression and deep... muscle work. I spend much of my time on top using my forearms, elbows, knees for extra leverage, even up to my full body weight. I can also perform a lighter, more electric and intuitive massage, if desired.

With my strong intuitive hands, you'll feel like jello by the time I'm done with you.

** Let's get in amazing shape!! ... with a yoga/xfit/massage combo **

I’ve had two beyond wonderful sessions with Coach Paxton: one basic full body massage and one yoga training session followed by a deep massage. I highly recommend either. Right away you can tell he is not only extremely good at what he does and knows people’s bodies, he’s also a warm, trustworthy presence. He effortlessly put me at ease in our first session, allowing me to relax fully into his deep body rubs. When he uses his body weight to work into the muscles he intuitively knows the areas that are in need of pressure, the feeling is heaven! And if you’re at all interested in learning more about yoga poses and how to challenge yourself with body weight exercises, Paxton is a terrific and empathetic teacher. I’ve left feeling completely satisfied, sore (in a very good way!), and eager to see him again.

This beautiful man inside and out, gave me one of the absolute best massages and stretching sessions, that he calls "assisted stretching," that I have EVER had. And I assure you that I am a fine connoisseur of good, deep tissue and trigger point therapy. He absolutely hit every single spot just perfectly. He's a great conversationalist and very professional, yet charming. I would highly recommend him if you have any idea of what getting a good massage is all about. Trust me. I never write reviews, good or bad. But this guy inspired me to do so and I promise you will not be disappointed if you get in touch with this man ASAP. He will be in town for a couple of weeks and I promise I will save every last dime to see Him as much as I can afford to.. Take my word for it. You will not be sorry.

I made an appointment with Coach Paxton while he was in Kansas City, and he was very prompt in answering my messages, and setting an appointment. When I arrived at the appt he greeted me like an old friend, making me feel extremely safe and comfortable. It was an amazing massage with his magic hands; quite literally the best massage I have ever had. He uses his hands, elbows, and even his entire body weight in the massage. He is caring and checks in on you during the massage, making sure you are ok, and will do his best to ensure that you leave happy and with a smile on your face. I have been with many other massage therapists but none of them come even close to being on his level of 5 star service. Down to earth, professional and has a very soothing, relaxing persona. He’s so good that I had to book a second massage with him the very next day, and somehow it was even better! I Recommend you experience for yourself. If he is in your city do yourself a favor, and book him, you won’t regret it!

The Whole Package...
After wasting too much time in the past pondering hiring a masseur, I finally decided it was time to schedule one to work out the tensions of everyday life. When I got on the site, I selected Coach Paxton. Great decision! Coach Paxton responded to my messages within a short time. We discussed the massage options and what areas (neck, shoulder, back) needed the most attention. When he got to town, we scheduled an appointment. I was surprised when he texted me a few hours before our appointment to confirm – I’m duly impressed!
Upon my arrival, he welcomed me into his room (lighted by scented candles with relaxing music playing). In the dim candlelight, I could see that he not only looked like his pictures, in person, he looked even better!
Coach’s easy attitude put me at ease, and he quickly (but not rushed) got me ready for the massage. He varied the pressure in different areas, making some light conversation and making sure I was always comfortable. I might have flinched a bit when he was working out knots but let him continue because the pressure was working. Coach’s strong hands and technique had me totally relaxed, we were over an hour into the two-hour session before I knew it.
Overall, the massage was my best Christmas present (to myself) in years. Coach Paxton is professional, courteous, comforting, and thorough. Added to his genuine, friendly personality, he’s definitely the whole package and all-around good guy. If you get a chance to book your massage with him, you won’t regret it and will feel better for it. Thanks again Coach!

Incredible!! That's really the only word to describe this massage and Coach Paxton! He was easy to contact and the appointment was easy to schedule. When I arrived he was friendly and welcoming! I had some areas that needed work (back, legs, glutes) and he made sure to address all of them. During the massage he would check in with me on pressure, how I was feeling, etc. The light conversation was great as well.

I wanted to note a few things, I like deep pressure and he was able to deliver. At one point he was using his knees. The only words I seemed to be able to utter were "fantastic" "wonderful" and "great". I wish I had booked a longer session. This is one therapist that you want to see again and that you should see for a longer period of time.

Would I see him again, YES! I only wish I could see him again today!

Massage therapy as an art-form!

This was my first time getting a massage from Paxton. He was very responsive and accommodated me within his busy evening schedule. He arrived at my home on time.

Once I met Paxton for our appointment, I could tell instantly that he was easygoing, friendly and overall down-to-earth guy. Before the start of the massage, he consulted with me to find out where my troubled areas that I was having problems with. I informed him that my lower back area was my major concern.

During our massage time he provided me with a continued combination of soft, deep tissue, trigger point and stretching techniques that provided a perfect flow overall. We also had an enjoyable conversation, which made me feel like I made a new friend in the process. My overall experience is that he was very intutive and compassionate about my overall well being. I felt healed and refreshed after my session.

The next morning after my massage, my trouble lower back area healed up and I felt alot better than massages I have had in the past. I will definitely be calling upon him again soon for my next massage. Thanks Paxton for the great healing massage experience!
