Why Personal Training: I officially got involved with weight training at the tender age of 12. Now over 30 years later and I'm still at it. What I've learned in this time is we all have one body that gets more and more important to us as it starts to age. That learning and developing good habits can add to the longevity and enjoyment of ones vessel. My goal is not to sell fitness but to introduce people to it. My passion is to see people transform and to share in the joy it brings to their lives. -

Scott Henady
Role: Massage Therapist
I practice with a therapeutic intent based on specific issues that you would like addressed as opposed to general relaxation massage.
In November of 1997, I completed my first massage certification and began practicing. Eleven years later, I earned my master's degree in Chinese medicine. My initial training focused on Swedish-based sports and deep-tissue techniques, while my study of Chinese medicine included a style of orthopedic massage called tui na (tway na, twee na, or tooee na).
Incorporating a concept I learned in tai chi called listening energy, I have cultivated what I call listening touch for my massage. Deep tissue does not mean just more elbow pressure. To inform and confirm what I hear through my hands, I also actively ask for your feedback during sessions. I consider whether tension is coming from your muscles, tendons and other connective tissues, joints or skeletal structure, as well as if your tension has stress or other emotional components. Rest, hydration, and nutrition are additional factors that will shape the work I do. I use traditional Swedish techniques as well as myofascial release, active and passive stretching, acupressure and orthopedic methods from tui na, and movement based on what your body needs.
I take an integrative therapeutic and lifestyle-oriented approach to massage therapy. When you come to see me, I ask what are the primary and secondary issues that you want to address, and base your session priorities on such priorities. I can treat on the basis of whether an issue is acute and urgent, chronic and ongoing, or out of a desire for general health maintenance. In all cases, I actively consider lifestyle, behavior, and accidents that create tension or injuries. In doing so, I look for ways you can supplement your massage through follow-up activities. I also consider if there are other modalities that can support the work I do or that might achieve better results. -
