Jonathan Riley, MS, ATC, LMT

I was referred to Jonathan by my personal trainer. I have been receiving bodywork for the past 6 years for upper back spasms and for relaxation. I was getting pretty frustrated when I would go to someone only to leave feeling I needed more. About a year ago I gave up on bodywork, massages, and physical therapy and thought I would just have to live with my problem, taking pain meds when it really got bad. I gave it one more try. And I am so glad that I did. I am finally pain free for the first time in many years without the use of drugs. He has a private office in Westlake (which was convienent for me). The office is beautiful and professional - restful and peaceful. I immediately had the feeling of being in a safe place. I have had many different forms of bodywork (Rolfing, spa massages, and a few others I don't remember). This is the first time I had someone actually spend considerable time talking to me and looking at my problem. He has a Masters of Science and has been on the staff of the athletic department at UT and has proved to me that he certainly knows his way around the human body. He took his time, and seemed to throughly know the problem before he began. He does not watch the clock for the magic 90 minute bell. I was there 2 marvelous hours. We have done three sessions of focused bodywork (working on one area only) and one complete body massage. He is very strong, yet very gentle; through but nuturing. He was able "free the muscles that were stuck to my ribs" by some of the deepest work I have had, but without any pain. Honestly, I don't remember a whole lot about what he did, except that I felt at my best in years when the first session was over. It only got better from there. I found Jonathan by accident. He doesn't advertise or do any promotion. His phone number is unlisted. Yet, he seems to stay very busy in his practice. He does more that just massage. I don't know how to describe it. You will have to find out yourself.

I have had that problem in my outside thigh for 3 years. I went to several doctors abut it. They could not find anything that was causing the pain. One visit with Jonathan stopped the pain and I did several follow up visits to get the pain completely gone. I am so very happy about getting out of pain for the first time in 3 years.

I had a recurring problem that none of the doctors I went to could fix. Three visits with Jonathan and....like WOW! I am pain free and have greater movement in my frozen shoulder and neck. I definitely recommend him as someone to see. Count me as one of the very satisfied clients and I will continue to see him as needed.
