I recommend Chad unreservedly. He is an intuitive, practical, and very intelligent massage therapist who has been invaluable in helping me heal from a serious Achilles injury over the last three months. I appreciate his deep understanding of anatomy, ability to read nuances, and professionalism. It’s important to me that my healthcare providers keep up on new techniques and are motivated to continually invest in their education. Chad embodies this. He took into account that I use a computer all day for work and was smart about identifying very small alignment and tension areas related to typing, mousing, and hunching over. No other massage therapist I’ve been to was as detailed or effective for computer-related stuff. His small cottage studio in SE Portland is charming and relaxing. Go to him if you need a serious therapist focused on reading, aligning, and healing your body.
