Testimonials

”I started working with Thrive Movement after a particularly debilitating bout with back spasms, something I have endured for many years.  I was referred to Luke by my physician.

We started on a program of deep tissue massage, followed by a series of stretches and mobility maneuvers and have been meeting at the beginning twice per week, and now once each week.

I have not had a recurrence of back spasms, but of equal, if not more importance, I’ve greatly increased lateral mobility in my neck, I have greater range of motion in my back, better balance and my wife says my posture is greatly improved.

Luke is knowledgeable, sincere, thorough, follows through, and is a delight to work with.”

“What I love about working with Luke is his passion for relating to our bodies in an expanded way combined with his gentle spirit of coaching the mind and body together. Luke’s style is very well integrated. His keen sense of movement and use of techniques that are a combination of massage, movement and exercise are refreshing.

I came to him with a very aggravated shoulder from climbing. Initially, I thought I might have to stop climbing, but Luke never considered that for me. He treated my injury with care and a vision for a full recovery and today I am healed.

Luke also showed me how to move properly so that I will not re-injure myself. In fact, I continue to grow in my sport and feel more connected to my body than ever.”

“Like many of us, COVID gave us permission to be lazy and forget to move our bodies in ways that maintain our strength and mobility. Additionally, I had a terrible car accident years ago and it was recommended to exercise and move my body to slow the process of developing arthritis as a result of the accident.

When I returned to my routine, muscle pain and blocked joints took possession of my body. This is when I was referred to see Luke. He developed a unique treatment plan for me adapted to my needs and capabilities. His approach, knowledge, and expertise around movement, well explained and delivered with care, motivated me to move forward and follow his directions to get better.

Now, I feel that my mobility and stability are back and I am ready to jump to the next step and continue giving my body strength and movement. I highly recommend seeing Luke.”

Sometimes there are no words to describe the experience I have with Luke. Gratitude is always one of them. Before I started going to Luke, I would bounce around to different massage therapists. For the past year and a half now, I have only gone to Luke. He is incredibly professional and attuned the every part of the body and it’s needs. He listens and responds to what is present. As an athlete and a service provider, Luke attends to my entire being. He stays curious, thoughtful, and intentional always. I wholeheartedly recommend his services.”

“Luke is one of the most effective massage therapists I have the pleasure of working with. He has a deep understanding of biomechanics, alignment, and anatomy, and you can feel this coming through in his work. He also creates a sense of safety and provides an environment where one can truly relax and rest. I highly recommend his work to anyone.”
