  • "I went to Mike for a surf release session, and it was exactly what I needed after  a couple of heavy surfs at the point. I was knotted up, but I came out of the feeling revitalized! Mike’s a great dude, highly recommend giving him a shout!"

  • "Highly recommend the surf release massage. Mike took time to understand what needed work and focused on key areas around my shoulders and back that lock up after big surf sessions. I walked out feeling great and ready to get back in the water. Legend!"

  • "As an avid surfer, I consistently deal with tight hips and over used shoulders.  The deep tissue release work Mike did had me feeling lose and rested. His studio has such a good vibe. If you love to overdo it with the paddling and need a reset, go see Mike"

  • Not at all. This is for anyone who gets in the water - whether you’re just starting out or surfing most days. If paddling leaves your shoulders tight or you’re feeling it in your hips or back, you’ll get something out of it.

  • Both can work, it just depends what you’re after. Before a surf can help you feel looser and moving well. After a surf is great for unwinding tight spots and helping your body recover. If you’re already pretty sore or tight, after is uaually the go.

  • That depends on how often you’re surfing and how your body’s feeling. Some people come in every 4-6 weeks to stay on top of things, others pop in when something starts tightening up. If you’re surfing a lot, more regular sessions can make a big difference.
