I have been seeing Chris on a regular (i.e., weekly) basis since February of this year and regularly receive his lymphatic drainage massage. I have also tried his signature massage, which incorporates multiple styles and stretching. Regarding his lymphatic drainage massage, it is one of the best that I have ever received and is the reason why I see him every Friday (it helps me / actually allows me to function over the weekend); he integrates fire cupping, stretching, and the Graston technique (a scraping technique) into his massage and the combination assists the body in removing toxins in a remarkable way! His signature massage will leave you feeling relieved of discomfort and you will experience a revitalization of your body! Chris is also generous with his time; even though he may start 10 minutes late (on account of preparing for the massage), he does not short change the massage (he makes up the time on the back end), which is appreciated! Lastly, his massage space is beautiful and full of all the amenities of a commerical day spa (i.e., a private bathroom and shower, bottled water and other drinks, mood lighting, calm music, etc.)! I would highly recommend Chris for any of his massage types! Give Chris a try - you won't be disapppointed (in fact, you will actually be grateful for the opportunity to have been massaged by him)! Thanks, Chris, for everything!

I contacted Chris on my way to Palm Springs to see if he might be available later the same day. He responded quickly that he was.
He greeted me warmly, made me feel comfortable instantly, and is even better looking than his photos.
His massage space is more like a spa room with low lights, quiet music, and a calming aroma that was never overpowering. He asked if I had any injuries or areas I would like to focus on. I said yes to both and the massage began. He is so adept that I nearly fell asleep. He is clearly talented, knows his craft well, and made me feel remarkably welcomed and relaxed. It ended with warm towels that were so welcomed and soothing.
I only book 1-hour massages because I have a variety of weird pains and soreness that even with a good massage therapist I get a little stiff at about the one-hour mark. Not so with Chris, the hour flew by and he made me forget the soreness and pain I routinely have. His talent is remarkable but so is his table. I have never been on a table that was so thick with padding that it felt like I was laying on a cloud.
I will definitely see him again and book a longer session. While he does live quite a drive from me he is definitely worth it and I can't wait for our next session.
