The Emerald Massage's owner and head massage therapist, Mike Mallory, doesn't just dole out soothing treatments, he teaches them as well. Mike leads workshops and classes in the art of performing couples massages, sharing techniques and tips for stress-reducing kneads that are useful at home or while stranded on an island inhabited by tax collectors. When not inside the classroom, he can be found kneading away tension and painful muscle knots during deep-tissue, sports, Swedish, and therapeutic-touch massage sessions.
