The Story Behind InMotion Bodyworks

Like many kids growing up in an Asian household, I faced the “classic career choices”: doctor, lawyer, or engineer. I chose engineering — apparently, I liked problems with clear solutions and measurable outcomes! Little did I know that years later, I’d discover the human body is the most fascinating engineering marvel of all.

For years, I thrived in science and engineering. I solved complex problems, built technological solutions, and enjoyed a career that looked great on paper. Still, something felt missing: real human connection and the chance to directly improve lives.

When Life Gives You Sciatica

In my early adulthood, I was diagnosed with degenerative disc disease. I joked with my parents that it was because I was always hunched over books, too engrossed in studying — but really, it came down to a mix of bad posture, weak muscle tone, and unlucky genetics. After surgery and a total lifestyle overhaul, I learned to manage my condition. Still, the occasional flare-ups reminded me that I needed support to keep my body moving well.

That’s when I discovered the power of massage therapy. Not all sessions were equal — some left me feeling like I was walking on air, while others felt underwhelming. My analytical brain couldn’t resist: I found myself mentally cataloging techniques. Why did that method work so well? How were they reading my body’s responses? What made one approach so effective compared to another? Without realizing it, I was reverse-engineering the art of therapeutic touch.

The more I studied anatomy, physiology, and functional fitness, the more fascinated I became. Here was the ultimate complex system — the human body. For the first time, I saw a way to combine science with meaningful, hands-on work that could truly improve people’s daily lives.

So I enrolled at massage training school, took supplementary courses, and became a Certified Massage Therapist. Instead of moving electrons around (I was an electrical engineer), I learned to move my hands and body to bring relief and restoration.

The Lightbulb Moment

Why InMotion Bodyworks?

I’m passionate about helping you get back in motion. Whether you’re an athlete pushing your limits, a weekend warrior recovering from overtraining, or someone carrying the weight of stress on your shoulders, my goal is the same: to restore your mobility, reduce pain, and help you feel more at home in your body.

I recognize every body is different, and in fact, what our body needs can vary from one day to the next. Hence I offer three distinct, yet complementary, massage modalities. One for relaxation paired with targeted muscle work. Another provides gentle stretching and pressure point release that improves flexibility and range-of-motion. Last but not least, one that imbues your body with deep warmth, melts away tension and promotes profound relaxation and better sleep.

My Promise to You

I understand what it feels like to live with pain and physical limitations — and I also know the relief and joy that comes from restoring freedom of movement. With warmth, empathy, and full presence, I’ll tailor each session to support your body’s unique needs.

Whether you’re seeking relief, recovery, or relaxation, it’s my privilege to guide you toward balance and renewal through the art and science of massage.

InMotion's Thai yoga massage helped relieve my stress and tightness. Highly recommend!
