Brian is a Nationally Certified, Florida Licensed Massage Therapist, Reiki Master, and member of the Florida State Massage Therapy Association. He is a graduate of the Coastal School of Massage Therapy in Jacksonville, Florida. Brian first learned massage techniques several years ago in a trade of learning with a licensed massage therapist in Maryland. Working on friends and family, his skills grew.

After moving to Florida he learned Reiki and has been a Reiki Master since 1997. He attended a local massage school one night a week with permission of the school’s owner. His focus was to extend his knowledge and increase his skills. He again practiced on family, friends and neighbors, and more friends. This was all done at no charge, as he just wanted to help people. It gave him a wonderful feeling to know that he had helped someone.

Deciding that massage was something he wanted to do full time, Brian enrolled at the Coastal School of Massage Therapy in September of 2001. During the 700-hour course (Florida state requirement is 500 hours), he learned anatomy and physiology, massage therapy, including various styles of massage. He had classes on Reflexology, Shiatsu, Polarity, Hydrotherapy, and Myofascial techniques. During school clinicals, he worked on 60 people in the school’s massage center. His techniques evolved to where he was combining things he had learned previously with things he had been taught in school. Brian graduated from school in May 2002, and passed the National Boards Exam for Massage Therapy in October 2002.

During the last few years, Brian has done many things from healing, teaching, and learning new things, like seeing problems in people, trusting the guidance that he gets when he is doing massage and energy work, and generally feeling out new energies. He has also been increasing his skills as a massage therapist, learning new styles and modalities of massage, and using many energy techniques to help him 'see' what needs the most work, and what movements would be most beneficial. He also continues to grow by learning many new energy techniques, and taking classes in psychic development and mediumship.

Brian currently draws on the knowledge of things he has learned and the experience that he has obtained, to become more in tune with what each person needs. His main goal is to help people feel and live better. He believes that whenever possible, we should strive to be positive, and live within the light.

Over the past several years, the growth of energy healing and the modalities available have come to the forefront of alte ative healing. We are now seeing where people that have been trained in various styles of energy healing can make changes in a person’s health with a simple touch. Now, this is not massage or any other type of touch pressure therapy. It is the laying on of hands to conduct energies to problem areas so they can work to make a person feel better.

The number of people that suffer from chronic pain has greatly increased over the past several years. In fact, there are so many that the medical industry has created a new type of doctor, the Pain Management Physician. All too many of the patients they see suffer from some illness where the cause is not known (and there are a lot of them out there). In most cases, these physicians try to find the right balance of drugs to limit the pain that their patients feel. Unfortunately, they are limited to what they know… medication. They do not know of holistic treatments that could help.

While massage is something that you think about when you are at a fancy resort on vacation, luxuriating under someone’s touch in the absolute decadent world, it is actually much more that that. It is necessary healthcare that we ignore, but should not.

There is a time that we sit down and decide what we want to do with our lives or this next part of our lives. In that moment, we make a decision, and we set goals. We set the ‘big’, ‘final’ goal which is the overall outcome, then we set some smaller goals which need to be met to reach that final one. Then we begin the process of meeting those goals.

Any healing session is a dance where two people come together to become one for a while, then part. They become partners in a process, the process of healing. They work for the best results, making the most of their time together, client and therapist as one. When that happens, it is a beautiful thing.

Today’s life has a good amount of stress. In fact, the stress levels of people have quadrupled in the last 30 years, maybe even the last 10. Computers have made things faster causing business to live or die on how quickly they can make decisions and implement them. This, of course, makes people have to react faster, work harder, and work longer.

How to get started

The best way to learn about me is to visit my website, www.CaringPalms.com . The site is divided into three sections, Massage, Reiki (and other energy work) and Continuing Education (which I provide for Florida massage therapists).

The Massage side tells about the styles of massage I do and what they can do for a person.

The Reiki side tells about Reiki, Reiki sessions, and Reiki classes. This side also talks about other classes I teach which include Meditation, Massage For Couples, Astral Projection, and other energy work. It also has a segment called Ethereal Jou al which is a blog about things I have done or learned. You will also find entries that just plain old teach.

The Continuing Education side has information on classes that are available for FL massage therapists (or anyone who wants to learn). These include Reiki and Body Mechanics for Deep Tissue work.
