About

Sam is hands down the best massage therapist I have ever encountered. He really understands the human body. I have seen several therapists in my life and no one has the skill, knowledge and experience that Sam provides.

Sam graduated from the Atlanta School of Massage in 2003 with a certification in Clinical Massage Therapy. Upon completing the program, he began his clinical practice while also teaching and supervising students at ASM. Sam later added to his credentials and experience by obtaining his personal training certification from ISSA in 2010. He has an in-depth knowledge of the human body especially in the areas of anatomy and physiology and is skilled at applying his training to real life scenarios. In 2023, Sam began his certification process for craniosacral therapy at the Upledger Institute. He implements CST techniques, along with cupping, scraping (gua sha) and other effective massage methods into his daily practice to help speed up the recovery process for those with injuries or pain.  

Sam understands what it is like to live with pain and has a passion for helping people get to a better place.
