Life first

Life is better when we can do the things we love.

Whether that means hiking in the mountains, skiing, golfing, cycling, making music, working in the garden, playing with your grandchildren, or simply enjoying everyday life without pain, injury can take us away from the moments that matter most.

My goal is to help you recover, move with confidence, and get back to living your life.

About Michael

Michael Larson, LMT

New Mexico License MT-2026-0149

I became a licensed massage therapist in 1997, but my journey started even earlier. As a kid, my family would pay me twenty-five cents to rub their shoulders for fifteen minutes. I did not know it then, but those moments planted the seed for a career dedicated to helping people feel better.

Years later, while studying double bass at Mount Hood Community College, I developed tendonitis in my forearms. A friend arranged for me to receive my first professional massage. That experience changed the direction of my life. It showed me how skilled manual therapy could help someone return to doing what they love.

More than twenty-five years later, I still find the greatest satisfaction in helping people recover from injury, restore healthy movement, and return to the activities that give their lives purpose and joy.

My mission is to help people recover from injury, restore healthy movement, and return to the activities that bring purpose, health, and joy to their lives.

My approach

Care built around your goals.

Each session is individualized using a combination of therapeutic techniques based on your goals and needs.

Recover

Support recovery from injury, overuse, athletic strain, and chronic muscular tension.

Move

Restore mobility, improve function, and move with greater comfort and confidence.

Live

Return to the activities and everyday moments that make life meaningful.

Sessions may draw from sports massage, Swedish massage, deep tissue, myofascial work, and Russian massage techniques.

Sessions

No two people arrive with the same history, goals, or concerns. We will choose the session length that best fits what you want to address.

30 minutesFocused treatment for a specific area.

75 minutesExtended treatment for complex concerns or multiple areas.
