Jeff
Jeff is from Taiwan and has more than 8 years of professional massage experience. And still researching to learn more different techniques.
He specializes in acupressure massage and tendon acupoint massage. His practice is doing in natural way that some parts of the body will feel sore during the treatment. The main reason is that the body may accumulate lactic acid that cannot be metabolized due to work fatigue, stress or exercise, and stays in the muscle layer. His massage technique is to stimulate the pain points, and allow your muscles to heal quickly.
