About
Twenty-seven years of working with clients across the LGBTQ and straight communities has taught me something simple but profound: your body knows what it needs, and my job is to listen to it alongside you.
I started studying massage at Irene's Myomassology Institute in Southfield back in 1996, but the real education came after. I spent my first year letting spirit guide how I'd approach each session, pulling from deep tissue, Swedish, Thai, sports massage, polarity work, and Reiki. I went on to complete Reiki Master training with Linda Fisher in Sterling Heights. That foundation still shapes how I work today. Every time you come in, I'm reading your body, asking the right questions, and designing a session that meets you exactly where you are.
My studio in Utica is clean, private, and quiet. You'll find spa-quality sheets, soft music, and bottled water waiting for you. I'm professional and respectful, and I expect the same in return. I also work mobile throughout Utica and surrounding areas within a 25-mile radius if the studio doesn't work for your schedule.
What happens in that first session: I ask a few simple questions to understand what your body and life are moving through. Then a quick physical assessment. After that, you're on the table, and I'm using my hands, intuition, and years of experience to give you real relief. The body, mind, and spirit are connected—I work with all three.

Testimonials
This therapist is genuinely talented and delivers a fantastic massage in a comfortable home setting. He's relaxed and easy to talk to, and you feel noticeably better when the session ends.
I reached out to Brian on a Friday and had an appointment the very next day. From start to finish, his massage was outstanding. He began by asking what areas needed attention, and from the moment I lay down, I felt secure and at ease. His hands are skilled. I'd definitely book with him again and wouldn't expect anything but a great experience.
Brian has a real intuition for what your body needs when you're on the table. He listens well, conducts himself professionally, and genuinely looks after the people he works with. I'd recommend booking with him without hesitation.
During my first appointment, he went out of his way to help me feel at ease and made the space feel both calming and welcoming. His massage was excellent, and I left feeling grateful for the care and skill he brought to the session.
