Who are you?
Hi, my name is Jason. I grew up in Chantilly, VA, and I am currently pursuing my Bachelor's in Health and Physical Education at George Mason University. I played football and wrestled throughout my childhood and high school years, and I now coach high school wrestling. In my free time, I enjoy working out and spending time with friends and family.

Why did you become a massage therapist?
After high school, I regularly received massages and noticed how much they improved my body’s function and overall well-being. A former colleague, who was a massage therapist, encouraged me to pursue this path, saying I had a natural touch. This motivated me to become a licensed massage therapist. I want to help others understand the importance of maintaining their bodies, comparing it to taking care of a Ferrari—regular maintenance keeps it running smoothly, while neglect can lead to breakdowns. Your body is just as valuable!

Where and when did you go to school?
I attended Northern Virginia School of Therapeutic Massage in Falls Church, VA, graduating in 2016.

What modalities do you specialize in?
I specialize in Trigger Point Therapy, Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) stretching, Active Release Technique (ART), Cupping Therapy, and Sports Massage.

List any dysfunctions and acute/chronic conditions you have treated or particularly specialize in:
I specialize in treating conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, sciatic nerve pain, and shoulder strains.

Why is massage important to you?
Massage allows me to help others while educating them about its health and wellness benefits. The positive impact massage has on the body is remarkable, and I want more people to be aware of it.

How would you describe your style of massage?
My style is very focused on the client’s specific needs. I begin by warming up the tissue and then work gradually deeper to release tension. I often incorporate muscle contractions to reach the targeted areas effectively. I believe in working collaboratively with clients to meet their wellness goals.

What keeps you motivated?
Seeing my clients’ satisfaction and improvement keeps me motivated. I aim to positively impact each client’s health, and I stay current on new massage techniques and research because education is a lifelong journey.
