Nathaniel Jensen | RMT


Meet Nathaniel

Nathaniel graduated from the 3000-hour course at the West Coast College of Massage Therapy in Dec 2019. He started his career helping people in tech support, where he learned valuable troubleshooting skills that he utilizes to great effect in his massage therapy practice.

He is empathetic and genuinely cares about his patients’ well-being, doing everything he can to help them get better in the shortest amount of time.

Nathaniel prefers to massage at a therapeutic pressure, where it may hurt a little bit, but it still feels good. This level is different for everyone, so those that enjoy a deeper massage, and those that enjoy a lighter massage can all leave feeling that the treatment was tailored just for them. 

In July 2023 Nathaniel participated in a course for DermoNeuroModulating or DNM. This course teaches an interactive approach to manual therapy that considers the nervous system of the patient from skin cell to sense of self. Techniques are slow, light, kind, responsive and effective while being in constant communication with the patient to understand and guide their healing journey.

In his spare time, Nathaniel enjoys the outdoors, hiking up mountains and scuba diving in the oceans.
