About

Eighteen years of working with Portland men—gay, straight, bi, all ages and builds—has taught me what actually helps. I've seen the strains, sprains, and aches that come with living hard. But mostly, people come to me because they need to step off the treadmill and find some quiet in their own mind.

I trained at Oregon School of Massage in Portland and finished my license in 2008. Since then, I've spent nearly two decades listening carefully to what each person's body is telling me. Deep tissue work, myofascial release, Swedish technique, sports massage—I know how to blend them based on what you need that day.

My studio is right here in SE Portland near Mt Tabor Park and the Hawthorne district. It's a comfortable, climate-controlled space in my home. Private. Quiet. A heated table. Candles. The kind of place where you can actually relax and reflect instead of rushing through.

You've been through a lot these past few years. It's time to do something for yourself. Text me—that's the best way to reach me—and let's get you on the table. You deserve this.

Mark has a real gift for helping the body heal while calming the mind. What sets him apart is how well he understands male anatomy and how to combine deep tissue and Swedish technique in a way that actually works. His home studio is welcoming and completely professional, with everything you'd need. He's absolutely my first choice for massage.
