Every session is tailored to each individual’s needs, and he uses a holistic approach to ground and bring balance to the body.Scott enjoys focusing on specific issues, as well as providing purely blissed-out relaxation, and has worked with a range of clients—from pregnant women to professional athletes. Scott is truly passionate about Thai massage and healing bodywork, which shows in every session he conducts.In the spring of 2018, Scott completed his 200-hour yoga-teacher training at Yandara Yoga Institute in Todos Santos, Baja, Mexico, beginning a new adventure for him and his family. After 12 wonderful years in Portland, Oregon, Scott and his family decided to pack the car and head south to the beautiful and familiar destination of Troncones, Mexico, where he became part of the Present Moment Retreat family.
