Bodywork West

I cannot highly recommend Van enough. I have been seeing him for over 10 years. He is professional, caring and a skilled body worker. He has consistently given excellent massages, relieving tension and aches and takes the time to listen to concerns. I feel reset, relaxed and refreshed after each session.

I have been receiving excellent massages from Van for six months now, and have benefited greatly from his expertise, skill, knowledge of the body, and his calm demeanor and professional approach to body work. While the massages are 50 minutes in length, I find that I enjoy just as much healing and overall wellbeing as I would in a 90 minute session, to which I've been previously accustomed. Scheduling the sessions is always easy, and Van is careful about reconfirming date and time at least 24 hours in advance. The sessions take place in an immaculately clean and calm studio that also houses an acupuncture clinic and a yoga studio.

I’ve been getting massages with Van for almost six years now. We first met at another facility where he was working, and I kept going back just to book him. Ever since, I’ve followed him wherever he’s gone—because honestly, he’s the best. I travel by plane nearly every week, which takes a huge toll on my body. I’ve dealt with chronic pain and back issues most of my adult life, so massage has always been an essential part of my self-care. I’ve had massages all over the country (and even at high-end resorts on luxury vacations), and no one compares to Van. I’m completely spoiled—he’s in a league of his own. Every session, I feel comfortable, cared for, and completely focused on. On top of his skill, Van has the warmest spirit—I feel it the moment I walk through the door.

I have been going to see Van at Bodywork West for about 2 years now. I have chronic pain and need to get work done every week. I have never had a massage therapist that understood my needs better than him. He's the best and I would highly recommend seeing him whether you need a deep tissue massage or just need to relax!

My Experience with Van is AMAZING every time. I always know that he'll get straight to the tense and tight muscles that need relief. I leave my Bodywork session feeling lighter, relaxed and rejuvenated, knowing that I Can Make it through to the next phase in this thing called Life. "Just Breathe"
