Jonathan is specially skilled and has helped restore my quality of life dramatically!   I have experienced severe lower and cervical back pain for almost a decade.  He is professional & simply one of the best masseuses I’ve been to!  I can highly recommend his services, if you have specific pain or just need some time to relax and restore your body, he is where to go!

I had surgery for a complete rotator cuff tear and was experiencing terrible pain even after 8 months of PT. Jonathan did his magic and after a few sessions I was  pain free, so grateful.

I have injured my back over the years in multiple areas. When I first went to Jonathan , I was dealing with chronic back issues but also an acute flareup; to say the least I was miserable.
I was referred to Jonathan from a friend of mine who had nothing but great things to say. As a woman, I was nervous to be seen by a male massage therapist but I was in so much pain that I was desperate.
Jonathan truly exceeded my expectations not only in his ability to restore my back to its fullest potential, alleviate my pain issues, but he also was really professional and made me feel very comfortable.
I have been with Jonathan now on a very regular basis for the past couple years. Once he got me through my acute pain, I remained with him on a bi-weekly basis for maintenance.
I totally and wholeheartedly recommend Jonathan.

If you have chronic pain anywhere on your body or have recently sustained an injury, Jonathan will dramatically improve your condition. He is highly knowledgeable and specializes in neuromuscular massage. This is a very intensive process, focusing on damaged muscles and trigger-points. Even after one session you will feel amazing!

Recovery requires rest and repetition--book a few appointments to get back to feeling your absolute best!

Jonathan is a true professional.  Thoughtful, caring and thorough.  He takes the time to listen, assess your ailments and systematically go after them! He resolved a long time back-hip issue of mine and I am more active today at 60 than I was at 50!  Neuromuscular massage therapy is the real deal if you are seriously looking to improve your mobility and reduce pain.  I have worked with many massage therapists over the past 30 years, Jonathan is by far the best!

I have been going to Jonathan for about a year. I presented myself with carpal tunnel and had limited motion.  He did SEVERAL things I have not had with other therapists....within 2-3 visits I had 50% more motion and Much less pain associated with my hands.  He intuitively KNOWS where and
How to manipulate deep fascia surrounding my muscles to GET RELIEF.
RELIEF that lasts....also he demonstrates different exercises that help with lasting and continuous results.

Jonathan is always ON TIME, and professional. He came highly recommended by my acupuncturist.
And I can HIGHLY recommend him going forward.

My wife and I have been getting neuromuscular massages from Jonathan Smith for several months now. We're both very active in our jobs, and that translates into sore muscles that need frequent attention. Having first visited after receiving a reference from a co-worker, his personalized and holistic approach to physical wellness through massage has kept us coming back. Professional and personable, Jonathan listens to our needs and quickly identifies target areas to focus his massage. It seems like he has a sixth sense for one’s pain tolerance, and the amount of pressure he applies allows my muscles to gain the benefit of being worked while also being able to relax into the massage, thus enabling my muscles to reap the most benefit. He’s gained our trust through his knowledge, skill, and personalized attention to detail, and he’s our choice for neuromuscular massage in the Monterey Bay area.

THE ONLY MASSAGE THERAPIST YOU'LL EVER NEED AGAIN.

Jonathan is the mannnn.
Body restorative is the ONLY massage I have ever received that I felt was worth the time and money and was actually helpful.

As a multi disciplinary athlete I am always running into tightness as well as mystery aches and pains that many other massage therapist have not taken seriously.

Jonathan cares, is always professional, and knows his stuff.

I have never left a massage without improvement and will never go to anyone else as long as this guy is in the area!

This is THE MASSAGE of the Monterey area.

Honestly, Jonathan  beats any masseuse I've ever been to. All the spa places I've been to in the past do not live up to what Jonathon has to offer. Spa massages are very superficial they go over the skin and squeeze a little here and there. You tell them to put a little bit more pressure and they do it, but it's overall a superficial massage, here with Jonathon he actually goes over your body movement and asks you where the pain is and he directly targets the muscles that work and are relevant to the pain and he fixes it. My traps were very tense, he applied pressure, the perfect amount to take away the tension.  Trigger points is what I remember. Thank you again!!

AMAZING!!!! I walked in thinking I'm just going to get a normal massage, and was I WRONG!!! I walked out a new person!!! Jonathan targeted my chronic neck and shoulder pain during my visit and was able to relive my persistence pain I was experiencing for last two years!!! If you have chronic pain that your chiropractor, dr, or pain pill couldn't help, GO SEE JONATHAN!!!

After one treatment with Jonathan I had significantly improved range of motion in my shoulder. I go to him regularly for a chronic pain condition. I don't know what I would do without him. He is highly trained in neuromuscular therapy, anatomy and physiology. He communicates throughout the session and tailors it to your particular needs. He is intuitive about where the pain may be stemming from. His facility is clean and comfortable. I can easily find parking. If you are just getting regular massage for a chronic condition, try neuromuscular therapy. I'm so glad I did. He also helped my 15 yo son with migraines and tension headaches.

Simply the best. Even if you were so fortunate to encounter good, or perhaps excellent, massage therapists in the past you have no idea of what a truly effective massage is until you meet Jonathan. He is in a Masterly  category where very few may claim to belong.

Jonathan is by far the best massage therapist I have ever been too, whatever the issue in your body he will find it, he has helped me tremendously with my yoga practice and I always notice a huge difference in my body after a session with Jonathan. He is a true master of his craft.
