As a graphic designer who works for 8+ hours a day at a desk, Michael's work as been instrumental in warding off my shoulder and neck pain.Several of my colleagues recommended deep tissue massage, but I usually find them incredibly rough and painful. The Bowen technique that Michael practices is painless, and uses short breaks between each area. I like these pauses because they stop me from getting overstimulated.One other plus is that the Bowen technique can be performed through clothing, so if you shy (like myself) you don't have to undress for a session.If you looking for effective yet painless massage, I recommend Micheal at SomaticTouch.

Had a wonderful massage with Michael. He did combined somatic touch and traditional massage with oil. Perfect combo for me. He also uses his meditation experience to help you be grounded during massage and feel cared for with well wishes.A small Berkeley cottage filled with his art work made me appreciate his sensitivity.

Michael is a talented and sensible body-worker who has a great positive healing energy. I personally am glad that he works over clothes and does adjustments and more physical massage for back and neck pain.
