"Nick took the time to understand and educate me on what he was doing and why he was doing it. He helped me understand how cupping would be beneficial to me and helped me build a plan for future therapy. He even took a picture of my back to explain what was happening below the surface. I recommend him to anyone looking another therapist. One of the best cupping sessions I’ve ever had."
"I had an incredible session with Nick that combined Shiatsu and cupping, and it was truly transformative. His technique was both therapeutic and deeply relaxing. The Shiatsu portion of the session helped release tension and improve circulation, while the cupping therapy provided noticeable relief to areas of chronic tightness. I highly recommend Nick to anyone looking to experience the benefits of Shiatsu and cupping. I will definitely be returning for future sessions"
"I am very familiar with Shiatsu, but I was initially nervous about cupping. Nick explained everything before starting, and even during the session, he constantly made sure I was comfortable. He even offered to take pictures and show me so I would feel more at ease during and after the session. Having a practitioner who is well versed in Shiatsu, cupping, and Gu Sha is very useful as each therapy style has benefits. I have had 4 sessions so far and I feel like I’m getting better. Nick explained my itchy back was due to poor circulation and muscle tension, and now I don’t need to scratch my back every night before going to bed. Nick also gave me some exercise techniques to help between sessions, and I can tell it’s working."
"I was extremely pleased with my sessions with Nick. I suffer from neck and shoulder tightness sitting at a computer all day. After a couple of sessions of massage, cupping and Gua Sha, the tightness went away. Nick is an amazing therapist to work with. He is genuinely interested in your health. He provided me with some great posture advice on how to sit at my desk and how I can release the tightness from my shoulders. I left my sessions feeling very zen and relaxed. Thank you Nick ????."
"If you're looking for a warm, caring & professional, focused shiatsu massage therapist with over 20 years of experience, then you should visit nick Nick is very skillful and knowledgeable. Nick is well-versed in how the body functions, and he is a wealth of knowledge! He takes the time to get to know you and assess the areas of your body that need to be worked on for optimal health. When we first met, he got right to the root of my problem (I had been in a car accident many years ago that left my back in knots that, when aggravated from time to time, would leave me in extreme pain), he assessed my back to determine the precise areas where the pain was coming from and then applied cupping and some skilful massaging that alleviated my pain almost completely. I later returned for a 2nd session, which left me completely pain-free. The relief in my upper back has been amazing! I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a pain relief treatment that is offered in a relaxing & calm environment."
"First time visiting Shiatsu Bodyworks and the experience was entirely positive. Nick took time understanding my concerns and the treatment was exactly what I needed. I felt heard, comfortable, and supported. This time I went for Shiatsu only but I plan to return for cupping. I can’t recommend Shiatsu Bodyworks enough."
"Just had an incredible Shiatsu massage from Nicolas at Heights Yoga! With over 20 years of experience, his expertise truly shines through. I went in with a tight shoulder, super tight shin, and cramping feet. Not only did he loosen things up, but he also gave me tools to use at home when my body starts to act up again. Nicolas’s massages are perfect for athletes of any kind. The Shiatsu massage involves deep tissue manipulation using pressure points and stretches. He also does cupping, which I'll be going back for soon. You Can find him at #206 - 3900 Hastings Street! ????✨ #ShiatsuMassage #AthleteRecovery #CuppingTherapy #MassageTherapy #SelfCare #WellnessJourney"
