Founder Maxwell Merila brings 10+ years of hands-on experience and a deep understanding of how the body works. Every session is tailored to your needs - whether that’s deep tissue recovery, mobility work, or total relaxation.

  • Stefan

    I cannot say enough good things about Max's work. Every time we meet, we discuss what part of me needs attention, and sure enough - when we're done, it's vastly improved or completely gone! I do a lot of hiking and other outdoor activities and a session with Max is always part of the plan upon my return. Do yourself a favor and book some time with him and see for yourself.

  • Alena

    "Max is an exceptional massage therapist, great for helping resolve chronic pain issues. As a former bodyworker I can attest to his skill level. He even can handle working on my husband’s strong back."

  • Kaelynn

    "Max is an amazing massage therapist, professional and makes sure you are completely comfortable. I would recommend his services to anyone in need of body work or even a relaxation massage."

  • Krista

    "This was hands down the best massage I have ever had. I have had a knot in my shoulder for YEARS and although we discussed that it would likely not be gone after one session, it actually still is a week later. I know it will eventually come back but I at least know where I can go to get it taken care of next time."

  • Jessie

    Description goes here"If I could give him more stars, I would. All I can really say is, this man is doin the lords work! I’ve been in pretty substantial pain for weeks, and I left there feeling like a new woman. Max is clearly educated and knows what he is doing. Thank you Max for the most beneficial massage I’ve ever had. Will be back!"

  • Matt

    "Max knows his stuff! His deep tissue massage really helps work out the knots in my mid back. I have a T-10 disc protrusion and it really helps loosen my back up."

  • Steve

    Description goes here"I love his use of stretching and deep tissue massage. It helped improve my golf swing by eliminating my lower back tightness and pain!"

  • Leah

    "Max is a talented massage therapist who has a solid skill set, which as a massage therapist myself I totally appreciate. If you're looking for some pain relief I highly recommend checking out his services."
