About

CenterPoint Massage & Shiatsu Therapy School in Saint Louis Park is where my foundation took shape—two years of hands-on training that taught me to read the body's trouble spots and know exactly how much pressure each one needs. That was back in 2012, and what I've learned in the thirteen years since is that being called "the sports guy" is a compliment I've earned through repetition and respect for how athletes and active people move.

I blend techniques the way a client's body asks me to. I'll start with Shiatsu to settle you in, then move into Swedish with lotion, followed by Lomi with oils—those long, gliding, full-body strokes that feel like the massage is wrapping around you. My shoulders and neck work is solid. I'll bring in Thai stretches for your back and legs if that's what makes sense. Trigger Point training means I can dig into the knots without guessing. Hot stones go on when the moment's right. The whole time, a heated table, soft music, aromatics, and rhythm work together to let your nervous system actually relax.

I finish with hot towels so you walk out of my upscale Uptown studio feeling clean and ready to move through your day. Some people come to me because they need deep, targeted relief. Others want light and relaxing. I listen first, then I work.

I'm here in Minneapolis, serving the area both in my studio and on mobile visits. Cash, card, check—I take what works for you.

Testimonials

This was my best massage experience. Now I know where to go when I'm in Minneapolis. Tom is wonderful—he accommodated my last-minute booking and made me feel at ease right away. He's genuinely professional with his deep massage work and doesn't rush. My 90-minute session went longer than expected because he stayed committed to finishing the job right. I'm already looking forward to my next visit.

Tom's massage was outstanding. The space feels genuinely comfortable and well-set-up. I have chronic shoulder pain, and Tom worked my trapezius muscle hard—exactly what I needed. He also identified and treated other areas I didn't even realize were tight. His attention to detail across the whole session was exceptional. The location is convenient with free parking. I've come to understand how valuable regular massage is for overall wellbeing, and Tom delivered that value completely. I plan to book again.

My first appointment with Tom was completely unwinding from start to finish. His hands are powerful and cleared out every kink in my body. The studio felt warm, welcoming, and the linens were soft. The hot rocks on my back stand out as the highlight. I'm definitely returning.

Hemasseur's Take

Clients consistently praise Tom's ability to locate and resolve chronic tension, particularly in the shoulders, trapezius, and neck—areas where many people carry stress and don't realize they need work. His studio environment receives repeated mention for being warm, inviting, and comfortable, with amenities like heated tables and hot stones creating a calming atmosphere that supports the healing process.

Across all three reviews, clients highlight his willingness to spend extra time and effort on trouble spots, his welcoming presence that puts nervous clients at ease, and his refusal to rush through a session until the work is truly complete.
