EXCELLENT Based on 7 reviews Posted on AnChi Laster-LeJeuneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If you are looking for a fluffy spa day, this isn't it—but if you want real relief, go see James at Knot Fite Massage! It’s not the traditional massage with robes and oils; he actually works over the clothes without lotion, which allows for some incredible deep tissue and stretching work. I believe he blends Deep Tissue with Sports and Trigger Point therapy. It is exactly the kind of deep pressure I needed to work out my tension. Highly recommend him for anyone who actually wants to fix their pain rather than just relax for an hour!Posted on Guy BramiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent results. I recently had a hip replaced and went to see James on recommendation from my Physical Therapist who said a combination of the recovery work I was doing along with soft tissue massage would be ideal. I'd highly recommend James whether you're recovering from injury, an athlete wanting to prevent injury or recover faster. The studio is awesome! Professional and relaxing. Plenty of parking is a bonus.Posted on Brenda Segal BochnerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As much as I want to keep James the best kept secret in the area, he is just so good at what he does I cannot gatekeep. James' easy going and kind energy makes the you immediately feel relief from the outside world. Focusing on body work, stretching, and providing relief, his deep (but not painful!) pressure ensures you walk out feeling better than when you came in. Plus, the large free parking lot next door - what more could you ask for!Posted on Romeo TraettinoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. James really knows what he's doing, and has the perfect touch between strong enough, and comfortably at ease. I kept dozing off due to how comfortable I was throughout, and James was very adaptable to the mood and tone of if I wanted to talk in a certain instance, or just to stay silent and enjoy the moment. Was a very pleasant experience, and he even gave me tips & tricks of how to keep my muscles smooth & not tight throughout the day. That will be my homework until we meet again. I highly recommend, and I will surely be back, hopefully once a month!Posted on Deborah HuffmanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. James was my massage therapist when he lived in Texas. I’ve been to many massage therapists (I’m 70) and James is one of the best. I like a deep tissue massage and James was great at working out my knots and stress that I carry in my shoulder blades.Posted on Mary SchardtTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

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.

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.
