OUR SERVICES
Specialized Neuromuscular Therapy & Bodywork in Hollywood, Los Angeles
FUNCTIONAL MUSCLE MANIPULATION
Developed by George Rodafinos in 1989, the FMM is a neuromuscular technique that goes deeper than deep tissue — without pain. Instead of forcing contracted muscles to release, we communicate with your sympathetic nervous system to convince it to let go. You learn a breathing technique that connects you to your defensive muscles, allowing results that last for years.
Effective for chronic and recurring problems: neck pain, back pain, headaches, and peripheral pain patterns.

New clients: Your first session is discounted — 55 min $130 | 70 min $175 | 85 min $220
FUNCTIONAL SPORTS MASSAGE
Advanced sports massage built on our Functional Muscle Manipulation technique. We release chronic contraction patterns so your body can respond to effort with the right muscle focus — not compensate with muscles locked in defense. Less aggressive than traditional sports massage, more effective. Chronically contracted muscles are more prone to injury and heal slower. Free them, and your body becomes more responsive and resilient.
Includes our signature breathwork technique — one you will want to keep for life.
55 min — $160 | 70 min — $205
New clients: 55 min $130 | 70 min $175 (FMM first-session rates apply)
SIGNATURE VAGAL DRIFT EXPERIENCE
The Vagal Drift Experience takes relaxation to another level by activating the healing capacity of the vagus nerve — the key to emotional balance, deep relaxation, and self-repair. Through effleurage, diaphragmatic release, gentle compression, and foot reflexology, this therapy signals safety to your nervous system, guiding your body from fight-or-flight into profound restoration.
A carefully curated essential oil blend of Lavender, Cedarwood, Bergamot, and Roman Chamomile deepens breath, releases muscle tension, and promotes emotional calm. You also learn vagus nerve breathing — a lifelong tool to manage stress and unlock your body’s innate healing potential.
60 min — $200
REFLEXOLOGY
Reflexology accesses and harmonizes body functions through reflex points on the feet, hands, and ears. While its mechanism is still being studied, clinical research confirms its efficacy — and in our hands, the results speak for themselves.
We use reflexology for three primary purposes: instant relief from acute pain (similar to acupuncture but, in our experience, more dependable), regulation of the autonomic nervous system to shift you into a deeply relaxing and healing state, and support for PTSD recovery.
30 min — $90 | 50 min — $150
MANUAL LYMPH DRAINAGE
Manual Lymph Drainage is a medical massage technique. While we hold full MLD certification, we specialize in releasing lymph congestion in the skull to heal sinusitis. In our experience, this happens in as few as 2 sessions and rarely more than 8. Sessions should be daily or as close together as possible for best results.
The technique is soft, pleasurable, and deeply relaxing. Results can last for years.
