I’m thrilled to share some exciting updates about The Massage Garage and how we’re continuing to grow and evolve to serve you better!
After much reflection, I’ve decided to step away from the chiropractic doctorate program to refocus fully on my private practice. This shift allows me to dedicate more time and energy to the personalized care and hands-on therapy you’ve come to expect. Your feedback around scheduling and availability has been a key factor in this decision, and I’m excited to be more consistently present in the office moving forward.
In addition to this renewed focus, I’m excited to announce that we’ll soon be integrating Radial Pressure Wave & Shockwave Therapy into our practice! This non-invasive, highly effective treatment is ideal for addressing chronic pain, soft tissue injuries, and stubborn musculoskeletal conditions. It is also a fantastic adjunct to the neuromuscular therapy we’ve been known for over the past 17 years, enhancing outcomes and helping clients recover faster and more completely. We expect to launch this new service in the coming months—stay tuned for more details on how this innovative therapy can support your healing and performance.
To schedule your next session or to stay updated on the launch of shockwave therapy, please visit our booking site.
Thank you for your continued trust in The Massage Garage. I’m looking forward to bringing you even more tools to support your health and wellness in the months ahead.

He is a massage therapist with a background unlike that of any other massage therapist. He was a professional theater artist for 25 years, as a dancer, singer and actor who performed in many major Broadway productions.
During his two years in CATS, his body sustained many injuries, and the production company always provided therapeutic massage to the cast as needed. He was awed and amazed that massage therapy could get him out of pain and back to work the same day. That’s when the seed was planted to heal others through touch. But it would still be a few more years until he rode that dream to reality. He continued his acting career, and between show stints, opened and built a successful chain of candle stores in New York City.
Having sold the candle stores, Gary moved to San Francisco and his ultimate dream of healing and helping people through touch came to fruition. Since 2009 he has been a California Certified and Licensed Advanced Neuromuscular Therapist and Health Educator, a “body mechanic”, as he calls himself.
Gary’s therapeutic massage techniques encompass the nervous system and muscular systems together. He isolates where the pain is coming from, and then uses several massage modalities to re-educate and realign the muscle fibers to go back to their normal position. He also retrains the nerve movements of the brain to actually get rid of the pain. Gary’s massage techniques are also a great complement to physical therapy, chiropractic, acupuncture, and other healing systems.
Meet Gary!
