My bodywork style is like good Jazz: Grounded in therapeutic fundamentals yet wildly and smoothly creative. Each successive session is unique from the last. Here are a few of the many notes of the Zeke's Bodyworks jam:
Myofascial: An opening. Hello. A friendly indian burn. Accomplished with out oil. Myofascial massage consists of slow connected strokes to move shape and open the facsia so that your muscles can find comfortable space.
Esalen: Wavelike yummy long strokes without end. My style of Esalen is trance inducing, deep, sensual and a prominent part of my massage rift. My mentor, Glenn Wilson is an Esalen practioner and I enjoyed a year internship at the Esalen Institute of Big Sur California.
Nurturing Swedish: An oil based massage. Featuring sumptuous head to toe long strokes mixed in with kneading massage moves. The flow teases out tightness and perhaps some toxins out of tired muscles and then moves them along. My style of Swedish is deeply relaxing and hypnotizing. I return to the sensuous Swedish rift often for grounding and integration of the deeper more intense bodywork.

Yoga Based Stretches: Stretches are a big part of my massage offering. As a lifelong big man and dedicated yoga practitioner I love a good stretch. Flowing from my experience I employ and transfer various asanas (yoga routines) into your massage. In the end, attempting to stretch yourself is a bit like tickling yourself. . .its always so much better if you have a helping hand (or body) to assist in your bliss.
Body Rolling: Work based on the fundamentals of full contact improvisational dance. I seamlessly use my weight, elbows, legs, chest, chin and whatever else is available to compassionately steamroll stubborn muscles. A fun playful, intimate, enveloping, and nurturing style of bodywork.
Laughter and spontaneity: Massage is fun and journey.
Every massage I try to do something that I have not done before that will be delicious, playful and melt right into the massage.
