About
Coming to you—that's where my practice really shines. I've built my business around the idea that you shouldn't have to plan your week around a massage appointment. For nine years, I've been traveling across Michigan and beyond, bringing the same quality massage to your home, hotel, or wherever you need it. In Pontiac, I also maintain a welcoming studio space where clients tell me they feel instantly at ease.
I specialize in meeting each person exactly where they are. Some days you need deep, firm pressure to release tension that's been building for months. Other days you're looking to unwind after a brutal work schedule—something softer, more restorative. I work with deep tissue, hot stone, Swedish technique, and sports massage, blending them based on what your body is telling me and what you're hoping to get out of our time together.
Over nearly a decade, I've learned that the relationship between therapist and client matters as much as the technique itself. You need to feel safe, respected, and genuinely heard. I don't discriminate—I welcome every person regardless of race or body type. I ask detailed questions at the start because I want to know what's hurting, what you're training for, what kind of pressure feels right to you. That's how I make sure you leave feeling the difference.
If you're in the Pontiac area or anywhere within 150 miles, reach out. Text or call to schedule. I'm available from 8 a.m. to 11:45 p.m. every single day, and I look forward to helping you recover.

Testimonials
Second session with Ty this year. He's a kind, professional person, and his studio feels comfortable and welcoming. The first massage helped me recover from back pain, but this one was the relaxing reset I needed after a hectic, stressful work week.
YOU HAVE TO GET A MASSAGE FROM TY. I've had many massages over the years and my experience with him was among the best of my life. Ty is a genuinely kind and caring person who truly loves what he does. I felt at ease instantly. His technique is incredible and left me more relaxed than I've been in a long time. He's the perfect blend of someone strong enough to release deep muscular pain and tension, and someone gentle and emotionally connected who makes you feel comfortable, relaxed, and restored. I got my first massage and have already booked another. You should too.
I've been coming to Ty consistently for about a year now, and he's even traveled to see me while I've been on the road. His professionalism is top-notch. He's a tall guy with strong hands, so he can deliver deep tissue work when I need it or softer relaxing massage other times. As an athlete, regular sessions with him have been huge for keeping my body in peak condition on the field.
Ty relaxed me really well and worked out the knots in my back. His massage was pleasant and soothing. After a long flight, it was the perfect way to unwind before diving into work the next morning. I really appreciate him for being flexible and willing to travel to me.
Ty was so welcoming—I cannot overstate that. Such a kind person. This was my first massage through this site, and it was fantastic. His big, strong hands gave me one of the best massages I've ever experienced. Highly recommend and I'm telling everyone I know about him. Thank you, Ty.
Ty gave me exactly what I needed—a calming massage to shake off a tough day at work. He's a wonderful therapist and genuinely nice guy. Wish he was in my home city so I could see him regularly, but I'll definitely book him again the next time I'm in the Detroit area.
From arrival to finish, Ty was extremely welcoming. He asked thorough questions to make sure I got the best possible massage while targeting the areas where I had the most pain and discomfort. I don't get massages often, but I know the next time I do, I'm going back to him. I'd strongly recommend him to anyone looking for a relaxing, therapeutic experience.
Ty was in my area and I reached out to schedule. He responded quickly, and the massage was perfect. He focused on relieving my back pain and applied firm but medium pressure that made the whole experience really comfortable. If he lived here in Kentucky, I'd be a regular client.
I was in town from Florida for work and found Ty's profile online. Scheduling was simple, and he fit me in last-minute. This ranks among the best massages I've ever had. His studio is comfortable and convenient to get to. I'll be seeing him again on my next visit to town.
I discovered Ty on MasseurFinder and it was a great call. He made me feel very welcome at his clean, relaxing studio. It was one of the best massages I've had. I'd been dealing with back pain from my new gym routine, and after leaving his appointment I felt so much better. I'll definitely be back.
Ty's reviews convinced me to book with him this week. The massage was so soothing I nearly fell asleep partway through. Work stress has been piling up, and this was exactly what I needed to bring my stress levels down. Ty is professional, genuinely kind, and his studio is clean, calm, and inviting. Thank you, Ty.

FAQ
How much does a massage cost in Pontiac, Michigan?
Sessions in my Pontiac studio begin at $100 for 45 minutes. A full hour is $130, and 90 minutes is $180. If you'd prefer I come to you, mobile rates are $130 for 45 minutes, $170 for 60 minutes, and $230 for 90 minutes.
Do you offer mobile massage near Pontiac?
Yes, I travel throughout Michigan and serve a 150-mile radius from Pontiac. I bring my massage table, hot towels, and music to your location—whether that's your home, hotel, or office.
What's the difference between deep tissue and Swedish massage?
Deep tissue uses firmer, slower pressure to reach muscle knots and chronic tension, making it ideal for athletes or anyone with sore areas. Swedish massage is lighter and more flowing, focusing on relaxation and improving circulation. I offer both and can combine them based on what your body needs that day.
Can I get a same-day massage appointment in Pontiac?
I try to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible. Text or call to ask about availability—I'm open 8 a.m. to 11:45 p.m. every day, and clients have had success booking same-day sessions.
Do you offer sports massage for athletes?
I do. Sports massage uses deeper pressure and targeted techniques to support muscle recovery, improve flexibility, and keep you performing at your best. Several clients who train regularly book with me to maintain their conditioning.

My studio includes free parking, a private restroom with shower access, bottled water, hot towels, candles for atmosphere, and a comfortable massage table. It's designed to feel clean, welcoming, and relaxing from the moment you arrive.
