Overview

Hey, my name is James and I’m the body alchemist. My styles of bodywork come from across the globe some are old and some are new. The goal is to get you and your body regulated and in sync. Folks often say they feel lighter after working together.

I pair western massage therapy with eastern bodywork. I follow traditional Chinese medicine philosophy the same thought process as acupuncture and use Tui Na a Chinese modality that balances your physical... and energetic body. I include reiki standard with every massage. If you’d like we could do a session of just reiki.

Fostering community care is important for all our well being. All members of the LGBTQ community and all genders and expressions are welcome. Thank you

Testimonials

Gathered by James from admiring massage clients to share with you.

Sept. 06, 2024 in Chicago, IL (in-studio)

James’s bodywork is amazing. Not only did he ask and listen about my aches and pains he addressed them. He is an artist with his hands and his words. I felt comfortable calm relaxed and left feeling lighter. James has a beautiful soul and I'm looking forward to going back.
