"Since writing
Bodymind during the 1970s, I have enjoyed watching the fields of massage,
bodywork, and alternative healing expand, diversify and blossom. I have
also had the special pleasure of experiencing many of the world's finest
massage therapists and bodyworkers. I can honestly say that CC is the most
gifted, talented and ingenious bodyworker/healer I have ever encountered.
His work and natural gifts stand in a class unto themselves. Whether
applying his powerful and healing hands to individuals with troubling
disabilities, to world class athletes or simple overstressed mid-lifers,
CC's unique approach consistently produces remarkable results. Through his
continued work at the famed Esalen Institute and other healing centers
worldwide, CC has endeavored to raise the art and science of massage
therapy to an entirely new level."

I have been in the
Beauty/Spa business for 27years and during that time I have interviewed,
hired and worked with many massage therapists. I have also personally
worked with several different people to take care of my own needs owning
and managing three very successful salons. I have experienced many
different styles and techniques and have been open to exploring new
territory with massage. About two years ago I had the good fortune of
meeting CC through a friend of mine and was completely bowled over by his
unique approach. He seems to magically address whatever my needs are at
the time of our massage. CC is intuitive, strong and obviously very
experienced. I believe anyone would benefit by working with him and I hope
to continue to do so for a very long time.

I met CC several
years ago when he gave a demonstration of his massage style for the
Therapeutic Massage I course I teach at Monterey Peninsula College. I was
fortunate to be the model for the demonstration, which introduced me to
the CC Flow™ style of massage. In addition to the wonderful massage, I
noted that CC interacted with my students in an engaging, relaxed and
natural way, answering questions about his work with both clarity and
humor.
I am very impressed with his ability to use not only a
marvelously fluid style of massage, but also to zero in with pinpoint
accuracy on a very small and painful portion of my gastrocnemius muscle
that quite a number of other professional massage therapists were unable
to address with any adequacy. In addition, CC is one of the only
therapists I know who can effectively use deep transverse friction, a very
specific massage technique used to address intramuscular adhesions, scar
tissue, and hypermyotonia. In short, CC can do it all, and does it in a
compassionate manner and with a quality of touch that is as rare as it is
effective and pleasurable to receive.
CC is also an innovative
therapist. His BodyWave™ Massage pillow is an excellent tool that, for me,
made receiving a massage as comfortable as floating in my mother's
womb.
CC has very special and unique gifts that I hope he can share
more widely with the world. I heartily support him in his pursuits, as an
innovator, an educator, and as a masterful massage
therapist.

As a long time
massage practitioner and founding member of the teaching staff, I have had
the opportunity to work with bodyworkers from all over the world and have
never met one as gifted and talented as CC. He has a natural ability and
feeling for the work, and has created a style that combines his fluidity
of movement with a true understanding of the body. For anyone lucky enough
to be on his table, you are stretched soothed and creatively moved in a
way that is both effective and pleasurable. Those of us who work with CCC
have learned a lot from him and are happy to celebrate a 10 year working
relationship with this very gifted, talented man.
