About
When you're working with chair massage, deep tissue, Thai, and sports bodywork over twelve years, you start to understand something fundamental: touch is as necessary as food or sleep. It's how we heal, how we stay strong, how we actually live well in our bodies instead of just pushing through them.
I'm Nicholas, and I work in San Luis Obispo with an approach that's attentive and intuitive. That means I'm meeting you where your body is right now, not where I think it should be. I listen. I feel what's happening under my hands. I stay present and clear about what you need.
You don't need a table to work with me — though I have one, and it's comfortable. If you want to come to my studio, we've got a calm space with candles, tea, water, parking that doesn't stress you out, and a private restroom. If you'd rather I come to you, I'm serving San Luis Obispo and the surrounding areas within ten miles. Either way, the work is the same: techniques blended to fit you, whether that's chair massage, deep tissue, neuromuscular work, Thai, or sports recovery.
I fill up, so I appreciate at least 24 hours' notice when you can give it. Text me — I respond fastest that way. Let's get you feeling like yourself again.

FAQ
How much does a massage cost in San Luis Obispo with Nicholas?
A 60-minute session in the studio is $200. Mobile sessions serving San Luis Obispo and surrounding areas within 10 miles are available at the same rate. Payment by cash, Venmo, or Zelle.
Does Nicholas offer mobile massage in San Luis Obispo?
Yes, I provide mobile massage throughout San Luis Obispo and the surrounding area within a 10-mile radius. You don't need a massage table at home — I can work with what you have, though a sturdy table or bed is ideal. Text me to schedule.
What massage techniques does Nicholas use?
I blend multiple techniques tailored to your needs: chair massage, deep tissue, neuromuscular work, sports massage, and Thai bodywork. My approach is attentive and intuitive, meeting your body where it's at right now.
Can I book a same-day massage in San Luis Obispo?
I appreciate at least 24 hours' notice when possible because my schedule does fill up. That said, text me and let me know what you need — I'll let you know what's available. I work 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. every day.
Is deep tissue massage good for muscle pain?
Deep tissue, neuromuscular, and sports massage are all effective for muscle pain and recovery, depending on what's causing it. I assess your body during the session and adjust the pressure and technique to address what you need. Book a session and we'll work through it together.
What's the difference between chair massage and table massage?
Chair massage works on your upper back, shoulders, neck, and arms while you're seated, fully clothed. Table massage gives me access to your whole body and allows for deeper, longer sessions. Both are valuable — it depends on what you're looking for and what works for your schedule.
