About

Deep tissue work has taught me more than a decade of study ever could. When you apply precision pressure to a client's shoulder, you feel the exact moment the muscle lets go, the breath deepens, the whole body settles. That's what drew me into this work after years in the fitness industry, and it's what made me pursue formal training at Aveda massage school in 2022.

I'm Chris, and I run a clean, comfortable studio near Wilton and Fort Lauderdale Beach in Fort Lauderdale, serving clients throughout the area and beyond. My background as a black belt in martial arts taught me body mechanics and control—skills that translate directly into massage. I know how muscles connect, how tension ripples through the body, how to find the knot and work it out without forcing.

I work with the LGBT community and fitness enthusiasts, as well as anyone dealing with sciatic pain, tight shoulders, or just the weight of daily stress. My sessions blend several techniques—deep tissue, Swedish, trigger point, myofascial release, aromatherapy, hot stone work, and conscious breathwork. Every treatment is tailored to what you need on that day.

You'll walk into a studio designed for your comfort. The table is heated. The lighting is soft. Soothing music plays, and if you'd prefer silence, that's here too. Scents from essential oils drift through the space. Everything adjusts to you. I listen first. You're not just a body on the table; you're a person with a story, and your story matters to how I work.

Scheduling is easy through my automated app, and I respond to any questions by end of day. Come experience what deep relief actually feels like.

Rex provided exceptional detailed work on my back and shoulders that left me feeling incredible. He's highly professional with impressive knowledge of muscle groups and smart guidance I found very valuable. I'll definitely be coming back regularly.

March 14, 2022 · Davie, FL · in-studio

As a massage therapist myself with over 16 years of practice, my standards are high when I seek another therapist. Rex is among the rare few who meet them. He possesses what I call an intuitive touch—finding muscles that need work and knowing exactly how to address them. What's rare is his ability to blend therapeutic and relaxation technique so seamlessly. You can feel his genuine passion and his focus on you as a person ensuring you get an outstanding massage. I recommend him without hesitation.

Multiple clients report lasting relief, and even fellow massage professionals with high standards praise his work as standout in the field.
