About

Nearly 20 years of working with bodies has taught me something simple: the right touch at the right moment can shift everything. I started at Lauterstein-Conway Massage School in Austin back in 2006, and what began as training in technique evolved into something deeper—an intuitive ability to find what your body needs before you even tell me where it hurts.

My studio sits in northwest Austin near The Arboretum and The Domain, in a clean, private space where you can actually breathe. Free parking, no pets, no distractions. Just you, a warm table, and the kind of attention most people don't get anymore.

I work with Zen Shiatsu, Swedish, Deep Tissue, Sports massage, Trigger Point and Neuromuscular work, Acupressure, Hot Stone, Lomi Lomi, Myofascial Release, and Reflexology. That's not a menu to impress you—it's a toolkit I've spent two decades refining so I can create exactly what *your* body is asking for. Some days that's deep pressure and slow, deliberate work. Other days it's lighter, energetic, restorative. I listen to what you need and build the session around that.

Scheduling is quickest by text. Same-day appointments happen if I have space. All body types, all genders, all budgets welcome. Leave your worries—and your shoes—at the door.

A massage that was both relaxing and revitalizing from beginning to end. The space and atmosphere are wonderful. You can feel his expertise. He doesn't just relax your body—he calm your mind too. The 90-minute signature session was fantastic. I feel amazing and keep thinking about booking again.

My search is complete. I found my go-to massage therapist. He literally reset my entire system. I came in feeling worn down, exhausted, and burnt out. I'm leaving feeling restored and energized. So pleased to find high-quality therapeutic work at fair prices. Thanks Alonso. I'll be back soon.
