I’ve lived in Asia for seven years and lift weights regularly, so I carry a lot of tension — especially in my back. I’ve tried all kinds of massages, including traditional ones in Indonesia and Thailand — but working with Arnold is something else entirely.

He has a rare ability to connect with the body on a deep level. It’s not just about technique — he intuitively knows where to go and how to release what’s stuck. I can literally feel the tension dissolve as he works. Honestly, he feels like an innate healer.

Every session reveals something I wasn’t aware of. Unlike most therapists who follow a fixed routine — head, back, legs — Arnold is fully present and responsive. He even helped me identify an issue in my neck and a potential hernia. That kind of awareness is rare.

And afterward, I feel free. Not just relaxed — like something has truly shifted. Of course, one massage won’t fix everything, but his work goes deeper than most. Arnold knows how to release energy and tension in a way that stays with you. I’m really grateful for that. I genuinely couldn’t recommend his method enough.

I’ve had massages my whole life — my mom’s a massage therapist, I studied Thai massage — but this was different. With Arnold, it’s not about relaxing for an hour and leaving. It’s a full-body, mind, and soul experience. He was fully present with my pain, even when I wanted to resist it. There were moments when it hurt a lot — and I mean a lot — but he helped me breathe through it, be with it, and not run away.

What struck me was how the pain actually went down during the session. I had super tender spots, and they softened. Not because I convinced myself with mantras or positive thinking, but because my body physically responded. That’s rare. And it’s empowering — now, when I’m alone and feel pain, I remember what I learned in the session: breathe, be present, and the body will shift.

This isn’t just bodywork. It’s emotional, mental, spiritual. It’s not some fluffy “open your heart with cacao” kind of thing — it’s real, it works, and you feel the results immediately. My body felt lighter, clearer, less tense. Days later, it was still integrating.

Arnold doesn’t just do a massage — he creates an experience for your specific needs. He’s professional, intuitive, and focused. I felt safe, held, and seen. And I left not just with less pain, but with more awareness and trust in my own body.
