Jordan
Listening with his whole being
"John connects on subtle levels. Even when you come in with a single, acute issue, he hears what you need, in the moment, and only then decides how he is going to approach your issue (even if he had other ideas from earlier communication). Once you are on the table, he listens with his whole being to your body, gently connecting to what it is telling him. Every touch, whether by hand or via an acupuncture needle, is part of the dialogue that he has to guide his treatment of you."

Amazing experience
"John is amazing! He is extremely knowledgeable and takes time every session to really get to know how you're doing. The acupuncture, massage, and vibration with tuning forks combination is one of the most relaxing things I've ever experienced. I intend on getting acupuncture from John at least once a month for the foreseeable future. "

Maria
Spiritual and emotional transformation
"John is an absolutely magical being. I left his treatment feeling like I had been released from very old karmic debris. Lighter and more energized. Truly nourished and taken care of. His warm and bright presence, his skilled therapeutic hands, the stimulation of key acupuncture points, tuning forks, moxibustion, Caribbean magic, all helped me move towards my best self. Thank you John!"

Sarah
Wonderful first acupuncture experience
"John is extremely careful, attentive, and thorough when he evaluates your needs. The acupuncture was completely painless, and I immediately felt a wonderful energy coursing through my body as he gently put the needles in. He then did some sound work and after he took the needles out a while later, he rubbed my neck and all the tension I usually have there evaporated. Great experience, I'm looking forward to my follow ups."

Acupuncture & Massage
"John has a healing touch and is one of the most talented massage therapist/Acupuncturist I have ever worked with. He helped me not only with physical pain but also helped calm my anxiety levels. He knows the anatomy of the body and can focus in on certain areas where your body might need the most attention. I cannot more highly recommend John and I know you will feel the same after you have your 1st session with him!!! "

Astrid E
Fantastic All Around Healer
"Mr. Montes has a fantastic wealth of knowledge of several bodies of healing techniques and provides comprehensive treatment for a difference you truly feel. I've been seeing him for a few months now. I do work that requires heavy lifting and have problems with tightness in my back, neck, and shoulders. I came seeking massage therapy but was open to acupuncture. He has done both on me, recommended a magnesium supplement, and I feel worlds better! Also advice I can take with me."

Farrah
Amazing!!!
"John is awesome, I'm pretty sure there is not much he isn't knowledgeable about when it comes to bodywork. No matter what your preference is he's got it down, but then again that's what enjoying what you so and being a true giver looks like...and this is coming from a fellow body worker, we are really picky.I never know what will happen til I get on that table! Thank you, thank you THANK YOU! "

Paula
Getting the care I want and need
"I grew up where acupuncture is a standard practice and widely available. But it was not until I got treatment from John that I really felt the difference. My body feels lighter (one time I felt like I was floating off the ground because I felt so light) and I feel more in balance. I recently got into a bike accident where I was not heavily injured but very shaken up. I sought John to help me put myself back together and got an integrative session (acupuncture + massage), and it was absolutely fantastic."
Mar 26, 2016
Brima J
Extraordinary yet grounded
"That I am "NOT my body's injuries, ailments or trauma"...this was one of the first, vital statements that I heard from John. I left my initial integrative session with him feeling immediate relief from anxiety, fatigue and abdominal pain. He is a consummate professional who uses modalities such as acupuncture, Reiki and sound therapy to customize an experience of healing. His curiosity, extraordinary skills set and extensive training are paralleled only by his warmth and groundedness."

Life changing massage and acupuncture sessions
"John is the best Acupuncturest and massage therapist that I have ever been to. The work he has done for me has seriously changed my life. He really understands what pressure points connect to each other and is able to create a deeper sense of relief in focusing each session around this. Not only does he work through your physical body aches and pains, but also with your energy and spiritual connections. I can't not speak highly enough of him and would recommend him to absolutely anyone! "

Holistic Healing
"John is an amazing blessing. For a little over a year I have been seeing John 1-2 times per month. His service of acupuncture and bodywork is truly a beautiful combination. He is intuitively responsive, creates a comfortable and relaxing environment, and is a professional/ experienced healer. He has helped (and continues to guide) me to work through stress, acne, and in general healing through self care and awareness. I highly recommend John if you are looking for a holistic healing experience!"

Life changing massage and acupuncture sessions
"John is the best Acupuncturest and massage therapist that I have ever been to. The work he has done for me has seriously changed my life. He really understands what pressure points connect to each other and is able to create a deeper sense of relief in focusing each session around this. Not only does he work through your physical body aches and pains, but also with your energy and spiritual connections. I can't not speak highly enough of him and would recommend him to absolutely anyone! "

Healing...
"John has helped me to heal my hamstring. My range of motion has increased while my pain has decreased dramatically. He is a gifted man! He always listens to where my body is during each session, not where it was or where we expect it to be. "

"John is an awesome healer. He is very knowledgeable, highly intuitive and a generally lovely person. As a massage therapist myself, I am quite picky and highly recommend him for massage and acupuncture. No matter the treatment I always leave feeling better physically and emotionally."

An amazing intuitive healer
"john is amazing. Amongst his many talents, he has that rare but necessary skill for this line of work - extreme intuition. He also has tremendous curiosity which drives him to understand and search for the right combination of treatments that will work w you. I had frozen shoulder that is no longer frozen. needles, neuromuscular massage, oils, patches, cupping - miraculous. Always caring, John is a natural born healer."

Amazing work
"John can feel a problem with a muscle just after a couple minutes. I play sports at least three times a week and come in here to recover from fatigue and stiff muscles. Highly recommend."

Never disappointed
"John is a master at many modalities and he combines them all to provide a deep, healing massage. His kind demeanor combined with his expertise and knowledge make his massages a mini transformational experience. Also, if you have specific problems, he's great at finding what is causing them. I give him 5 stars without hesitation."
