James Fite,
Licensed Massage Therapist

Howdy! My name is James Fite and I’ve been a licensed massage therapist who focuses on helping people’s bodies function better for over 10 years. I use a wide array of techniques from many modalities such as Deep Tissue, Sports, Thai, Reiki, and Trigger Point.

I’ve spent most of my massage career working along side of Chiropractors and Physical Therapists, so my massage practice’s intent reflects the idea of healing and restoring function. While I am only one part of the puzzle, my goal is to help my clients continue their wellness journey.

My Massage Philosophy

I take a deeply attentive approach to massage by listening to my clients’ bodies—only by truly tuning into the muscles can I help release tension effectively. While I always encourage clients to speak up if pressure feels too intense (you know your body better than I ever could), my priority is ensuring both physical and emotional safety. That’s why all massages are performed fully clothed; although this may feel unfamiliar at first, you’ll experience the same benefits as a lotion-based massage—without the sticky feeling afterward. I also recognize that massage is just one piece of the wellness puzzle: while I can offer deep relaxation and a much-needed pause from the chaos of life, true health and healing often require support from multiple professionals, and I encourage clients to engage with others in the medical and wellness fields as part of their overall care.
