About

Arizona School of Massage Therapy in Tempe gave me the foundation I needed back in 2012, but it's the 11+ years since then—over 5,000 sessions—that taught me how to really listen to a body and know exactly what it needs. I've spent more than a decade working with men who come in tight, sore, or just running on empty, and I've learned that deep tissue work done right is as much about feel and intuition as it is about pressure.

I run a private studio in Phoenix near 32nd Street and Thomas Road, designed specifically for your comfort. There's a heated massage table that feels like relief the moment you lie down, premium oils that move smoothly across muscle, hot towels to ease tension, and a shower if you want to freshen up after. Same-day appointments are often available, and I keep the space clean, quiet, and genuinely private.

I work with deep tissue, myofascial release, trigger point work, sports massage, and Swedish technique. I also offer cupping, red light therapy, assisted stretching, and muscle scraping—whatever will help you move better and feel better. Whether you're dealing with soreness from training, tension from work stress, or you just need to reset your whole system, I can handle it.

I welcome gay, bi, straight, and all LGBTQ+ men. You'll feel safe here, respected, and worked on by someone who knows what they're doing. Let's get you back to feeling your best.

Testimonials

I had a wonderful deep tissue session and felt wonderful afterward. I'm planning to come back monthly to work on the knots in my upper back.

Art understands the body better than any massage therapist I've worked with. He learns your body more deeply each time you see him. I get monthly massage and look forward to it more and more. I highly recommend him and his services.
