Embody Your Truth.While quite physical, my work is primarily holistic, shamanic bodywork. It seeks to open and empower you not only on the physical level, but on the cognitive, emotional and spiritual levels as well. As you fall through the gates of your unconscious, breaking through limitations and barriers, you ultimately reach the source, a bright golden river of grace and healing, the terrifying and ecstatic love of God within you. Nothing is ever the same.Shamanic BodyworkFind yourself supported through powerfully transformative massage therapy in your South Beach condo, hotel or home by an expertly trained and experienced Massage Therapist and Teacher. Explore your inner landscape with bodywork that satisfies not only the needs of the body, but invites you into altered states of consciousness where deep healing and awareness reside.Enter a space of deep trust, of total surrender. Invite yourself to let go of all that no longer serves you. Open. Welcome the healing energies, the divine grace that resides within you. Allow it to embrace and heal you. You have all you need. You always have. Believe! |
On InnocencePeople marvel that I go into the Ocean at night, and somehow, especially that I will do bodywork there, late at night. They ask why I'm not afraid. I don't know how to answer. I can't hold any thought of any thing to be afraid of. Innocence protects me. If I allowed myself to play with fears, then I would be vulnerable indeed.In nature, blood in the water attracts sharks. Weakness attracts the big cats. Erratic breathing causes carrion birds to circle. Innocence glides among the sharks, belonging to their world. Innocence strokes the mane of the big cat and draws back all it's fingers. Innocence watches the carrion birds in the distance seeing the beauty of their magnificent wingspan. We think our innocence is weak and fragile, so we protect it. We swallow deeply and bury it beneath a mountain of neurosis. But our innocence is the greatest power we possess. When we let it out, the world parts for us, making way, encircling us, shielding us, protecting us, nurturing us. This is the root of all my work at table, pool or ocean. To hold my innocence, to beckon that of my client from the deep hiding places, to turn them out into the world wrapped in it like a warm blanket, like blazing bronze armor, like a beloved child of God. |

How can you be sure? Lomi Lomi with Michael was an experience unlike any other. Michael has a very respectful, professional presence, but in the same time manages to be receptive and open, almost vulnerable (thus relatable). His work is a dance of receptivity and assertiveness/strength. Through his well-wishing attitude, he creates a safe and sacred space where guards can go down and the healing can happen. By healing I mean releasing multidimensional holding patterns, communication with inner self, surrendering little ego to something greater... besides more obvious symptoms like deep relaxation, increased circulation and feeling of bliss. All the rocking, wavelike, rhythmic yet unpredictable movements (like pattern of ocean waves) have quite a transforming effect. Plus my hair loved the jojoba oil he so generously applied! I can definitely recommend Lomi Lomi with Michael for someone ready for such transforming experience. |
Michael deftly incorporates many massage styles, such as Swedish Massage, Esalen Massage, Thai Massage (Thai Yoga), Lomi Lomi, Multi Dimensional Movement Arts (MDMA) as needed into his sessions. Michael's therapeutic massage has a powerful energetic component that helps you arrive at that space of deep healing.
