My name is Andrew Maksym and I have been practicing therapeutic massage for more than 40 years. I recently relocated to the Coachella Valley from Los Angeles and am available to help you. During the early years of my practice, I acquired extensive clinical experience working in Warsaw, Poland, at the prestigious Institute of Psychiatry and Neurology, specializing in the rehabilitation of neurological illnesses, mainly focusing on stroke victims.
As an active athlete at the time, I also learned how to enhance athletic performance and treat sports-related injuries with massage. After coming to America, I worked for 30 years at the International SportsMedicine Institute where I mastered my skills in rehabilitation of injuries working with the acclaimed Dr. LeRoy Perry, D.C.
My accomplishments include - Official massage therapist for the Canadian Olympic Track and Field Team at the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, massage therapist for World Cup soccer, therapist for the Chunichi Dragons, a top Japanese baseball team.

Knowing the techniques of massage does not make you a massage master.
Massage is an art form that takes years of experience and training, plus a hard-to-define inner gift, to develop to its maximum.

Anyone who has had a condition known as Frozen Shoulder (also called Adhesive Capsulitis of the Shoulder) knows how painful and limiting it can be!
The human shoulder is extremely complicated and specialized, normally allowing a greater range of motion than any other joint in the body.
However, if the capsule surrounding the shoulder joint contracts and forms scar tissue and adhesions, the shoulder bone is unable to move freely or even move at all within the socket.
The shoulder becomes stiff, painful and movement beyond a certain range is excruciatingly painful.

I've had many of the world's best massage therapists work on me during my long athletic career.
Andrew is right up there with them!
Now as one of the many baby boomers who refuse to slow down due to aches and pains, I count on Andrew for a weekly "get-better" massage.
Whatever hurts, he either totally fixes it or at least gets it going in the right direction.
He is patient and will follow direction if you know a specific area that needs help.
He'll go back to an area you think needs more work.
His hands are incredibly skilled!
