Massage with Stephen Buckland
Stephen Buckland has been doing massage for friends – for fun – since high school in 1974. After being struck by a bus in 1998 Stephen was no longer able to continue his employment doing mechanical maintenance, so he went to massage school. Stephen completed training at the Kansas Massage Institute and by 2000 he was making a living as a massage therapist. Since then he has developed his own technique, a mixture of trigger point, effleurage and petrissage. Sometimes stretching. It is deep tissue work and sometimes you may feel like you have been working out the next day.
Stephen’s massage routine often runs 2 hours. His philosophy is that time is priceless and relative to our belief and circumstance. Stephen charges $60 for the first hour and the cost of the second hour is up to the patron. Stephen takes the parable of the poor widow in Luke 21:1-4 to heart in his pricing, saying “We all deserve the care we need and it shouldn’t be beyond our means”.
