Methodical Massage Therapy (San Antonio & Austin)

Every LMT's aspiration is to relax the client and relieve them of physical pain they might be experiencing. If the discomfort is caused by chronic pain, every day stress, work, an accident or sports-related activities an individual was involved in. Constantly striving to comfort the client and sooth their physical distress with the attained experience and abilities.

Origin of the Business

The name, Methodical Massage Therapy, derived based on a client's previous  description of a therapy session with me as professional and methodical.

Beginning my career as a massage therapist in January of 2005, there was a great amount of leg-work required:  Doing chair massages at businesses and events; going to people's houses with a table and working on couples or wedding-parties; traveling to clubhouses and hotels... to try to make a name for myself. 

Currently am working with and for Dr. Lin Joyner at the Chiropractic Clinic.  This is also the same place of business where I invite my own clients to come by for a massage therapy session.  Also travel to the Dominion clubhouse or their neighborhood for some work and still do chair massages at different businesses from time to time.  Was on-call status at the Watermark Hotel & Spa, but have not been there in a while, do to my own business keeping me busy.  Great work-environment and would recommend for anyone to visit for a weekend getaway.
