The story behind a clinical massage practice that started at a hospital bedside.
"I deal with a lot of tightness and stress in my upper back and shoulders and this is the first time I've felt like someone cares to truly take their time to concentrate on the areas of need. I can't recommend Felix enough!"

My journey into this work didn't start in a classroom. It started at my father's bedside.
When he was diagnosed with cancer, I became one of his primary caregivers. And somewhere in the middle of that long, hard, sacred season, I discovered something I've never forgotten — that touch is one of the most powerful ways one human being can show up for another. Not just physically. Fully.
That experience didn't just point me toward a profession. It handed me a purpose.
Over the next 15 years, I poured everything into developing a clinical gift that could actually honor that purpose. As a Licensed Neuromuscular Massage Therapist, I specialize in finding the root cause of chronic pain, deep stress, and the kind of exhaustion that sleep alone can't fix — and working patiently until something actually changes. Not just for a few days. For real.
But the longer I do this work, the more clearly I see something that goes beyond the clinical.
When a mom finally gets relief after months of pain, she goes home and her kids get a more present version of her. When someone's nervous system finally resets on this table, the people who love them feel it too. One person restored. A whole family touched.
That ripple is why Relief Pointe exists. It's not just a massage practice. For my wife Riz and me, it's a family ministry — and the name itself carries that meaning. After God gave us the name Relief Pointe, we later understood what He meant: a ministry of relief that points people back to Him as the true source of relief and healing.
I consider the ability to do this work a genuine gift — one I don't take lightly, and one I never want to waste.
When I'm not in the studio, I'm exactly where I want to be — with Riz and our active little boy, soaking up every moment of the life we're building together. At my core, I'm a child of God, a follower of Jesus, and a family man. And that shapes how I see every single person who walks through my door.
I'm not just treating a back. I'm serving someone's dad. Someone's mom. Someone's partner. Someone whose family needs them to feel their absolute best.
That's the work I show up to do every single Monday. And I'd be honored to show up for you.
He understands the body at a deep clinical level — anatomy, compensation patterns, neurology.
Every touch has a purpose. Nothing is routine or scripted.
He stays with each area until something actually changes, not until time runs out.
He finds what others miss — knots, referred pain, and compensation patterns nobody else identified.
Here's who we see most.
Whether you're training for competition or chasing a personal best on the weekend, staying in the game means staying ahead of injury. Felix builds recovery into your routine so your body can keep up with your goals.
High-pressure roles take a physical toll — a locked-up neck, tight shoulders, a nervous system that rarely gets to power down. Felix works with the demands of leadership in mind, so your body isn't carrying what your calendar can't.
Long hours at a desk create a predictable pattern — tight hips, rounded shoulders, a neck that won't fully release. Felix finds exactly where your posture is working against you and helps reverse it before it becomes chronic.
Between the lifting, the late nights, and carrying everyone else's needs before your own, parenthood asks a lot of your body. Felix gives that tension real, focused attention — so you have more to give the people who depend on you.
As your body changes to support new life, it also carries new strain — through the lower back, hips, and shifting center of gravity. Felix offers safe, attentive prenatal care designed to ease that discomfort with genuine clinical attention.
If you've tried everything and the pain keeps returning, the issue usually isn't effort — it's that the source was never found. Felix traces pain back to where it actually starts, so relief has a real chance to last.
Traveling through Nashville doesn't mean settling for a generic massage. Felix has become the trusted choice for visitors who want clinical-quality care wherever they happen to be.
"I've been seeing Felix for several years now, and I can't recommend him highly enough. His deep knowledge of neuromuscular massage means every session is not only incredibly relaxing but also highly effective. Felix doesn't just give massages—he delivers real, restorative therapy. Truly a gift to both body and mind!"
