My interest in Thai massage began many years ago and I became curious about the human body. This desire to understand its movement, healing processes, nervous system, and functions, particularly the musculoskeletal system, inspired me to pursue specialized training.

I was fortunate to study at the National Holistic Institute in Los Angeles, California, where I completed a rigorous 1,250-hour Clinical Sports Massage Therapy program. I earned the Advanced Neuromuscular Therapist and Health Educator diploma with honors, and successfully passing the Massage & Bodywork Licensing Examination (MBLEx) was a meaningful milestone, affirming my dedication to my profession.

​

Upon completing my training in Los Angeles, I returned to my hometown of Chiang Mai, Thailand, to reconnect with my cultural roots and expand my knowledge of Traditional Thai Massage. I successfully completed the Thai Massage Teacher Certification at ITM - International Training Massage, a comprehensive 390-hour program that further honed my skills in Nuad Boran.

​

My commitment to lifelong learning has allowed me to integrate the ancient wisdom of Thai bodywork with contemporary Western therapeutic techniques. I am sincerely dedicated to helping my clients feel their best through pain relief, enhanced mobility, or offering a moment of relaxation amid their busy lives. This work represents not just my profession but also my true calling.

Beyond Massage Therapy

I am a lifelong learning and anatomy nerd who reads scientific literature. I like exploring new restaurants in my leisure time because I am a foodie. As an avid cook and photographer, I love to cook, especially Thai food. I also find peace in hiking, taking photos, and caring for my cactus collection.​

My Clients are the Hero 

Jesse is incredibly skilled. He is completely worth the visit; he is able to make real progress towards your goals. He restored range of motion and calmed irritated muscles in my legs and it made a huge difference in my ability to move well.

I’ve been dealing with issues that have plagued me for over 7 years and in 2 visits I am on my way to recovery! Jesse is really skilled! I’m pretty hard to please because I’m a bit of a perfectionist, but I’ve finally found the right person to help me get me back to life!

Jesse did an outstanding job alleviating pain from a tennis injury. He is knowledgeable of the human body and asks excellent questions to help create an assessment and to provide an excellent massage and bodywork. He understands how the connections of the body work and where the trigger points are. Thank you so very much for your time and expertise.
