Who can benefit?
This work supports the body in restoring balance, relieving pain, and improving function. By working directly with the nervous system and fascial system, it helps reduce tension, improve mobility, and optimize the body’s natural ability to heal and adapt.
Clients often seek out this work for a wide range of issues, including:
-
Chronic neck, back, or shoulder pain
-
Chronic nerve pain
-
Repetitive strain and overuse injuries
-
Migraines and chronic headaches
-
Frozen shoulder
-
Sciatica
-
TMJ dysfunction and jaw tension
-
Postural tension
-
Whiplash and auto injuries
-
Pelvic pain and dysfunction
-
Post-surgical recovery and scar tissue
-
Joint restriction and instability

Anxiety and chronic overwhelm
-
Trouble self-regulating
-
Difficulty relaxing or “turning off”
-
Recovery from burnout or overexertion
-
Emotional processing after trauma or loss
-
A desire to feel more present, centered, and at home in your body
These therapies help the body unwind inefficient patterns, improve self-regulation, and support long-term functional health. They can also benefit active individuals by enhancing proprioception, accelerating recovery, and supporting sustainable movement patterns over time.
About
I blend myofascial release techniques, Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, and years of experience as a massage therapist, dancer, and movement practitioner. My approach is responsive and deeply attuned. I listen with my hands and work with, not against, the body’s natural rhythms. Myofascial release helps free structural restrictions, BCST supports the nervous system in settling and rebalancing, while my movement background gives me a trained eye for subtle patterns and tensions. This combination creates space for lasting change, helping clients feel more grounded, connected, and at ease; not just in their bodies, but in their lives.

While earning a BFA in dance, I discovered firsthand how debilitating chronic pain and injury could be. I also learned how the body can recover and even grow stronger when given the right support. Since then, I’ve been expanding my skills to bring both precision and care to my work which is grounded in anatomy, informed by lived experience, and guided by the body’s natural intelligence.

Nick came highly recommended to me by a friend and I'm so grateful for his practice. He is incredibly intuitive and knowledgable and has made me much more aware of what is happening in my body. He has helped me through an injury that is roughly 10 years old, relieved me of chronic pain that flares up from time to time (it has not flared up since going to Nick), and he has also shown me effective exercises that have helped in my day-to-day life as well as dance life. So grateful for you, Nick!

Nick’s bodywork has been revelatory for me! I’ve had a lot of massages and some physical therapy over the years, but one session with him made more progress than anything before. It’s also a nice space and he has a relaxing demeanor.

Nick has saved my body! I can’t reccommend him enough. He is keeping my body injury free as I run half marathons after an injury I never thought I would recover from. He is a wonderful provider.

Nick has my highest recommendation!!! Our sessions have freed me from pain that had been chronic for years before starting treatment with him. He works in many modalities that address all my needs. I am a performer and travel often - Nick keeps me fine-tuned for all my practices and life demands. #gamechanging
