Vida SEATTLE

Ben (he/him) is passionate about being involved in helping people become the best version of themselves.  After studying mechanical engineering in college, this passion led him to being a facilitator for domestic violence intervention programming and later was the motivation for him to become a massage therapist.

Ben understands how important our body is in our daily experience, and when we are struggling with an injury or navigating tension/pain it can prevent us from showing up fully for ourselves and others.  He believes in supporting people where they are and is always seeking to get to root causes to put the body in the best position possible to promote the healing process.  Ben is experienced in Swedish, deep tissue, trigger points, cupping, and sports massage, and uses these modalities throughout individually tailored massage treatment plans depending on the needs of each client.

Born and raised in the Pacific Northwest, Ben spends much of his time outside of work being active or around music, so you can often find him playing soccer, backpacking, riding his bike, learning guitar, and going to concerts.
