After several chiropractor and acupuncture appointments, I limped into MetaTouch hunched over with severe pain in my right hip/groin and walked out feeling amazing. Did yoga the next morning after not being able to do anything in 2 months. After 5 sessions alternating between Sultan and Brooke, I’m back to life! Can’t thank you guys enough! MetaTouch is the truth!

I truly can't say enough good things about my first experience at Metatouch Body Balance with Ryan. After being in a car accident a year ago, I've spent the past year struggling with ongoing pain, tightness, and tension throughout my body. I've seen countless physicians and doctors, tried different treatments, and spent thousands of dollars simply trying to find some kind of relief or even an explanation for what I was experiencing. So many times, I left appointments without real answers and with little more than another prescription for muscle relaxers or pain medication. My first session with Ryan was completely different. Not only did I walk out feeling significantly lighter, looser, and with more relief than I've felt in a very long time, but Ryan was also able to pinpoint where many of the issues I've been experiencing seemed to be stemming from. For the first time in a long time, I felt like someone was actually listening to me, understanding what I was feeling, and connecting the dots instead of simply trying to manage my symptoms. What impressed me just as much was that he took the time to explain what he was finding and gave me an actual game plan moving forward. I left knowing what we would be working on during future appointments and why, rather than feeling like I was being asked to endlessly come back without understanding the purpose. After an entire year of searching for answers, there was something incredibly validating about having someone recognize the things I had been feeling in my own body all along. I also never once felt like Ryan was trying to sell me on unnecessary appointments or simply get more money out of me. It genuinely felt like his priority was figuring out how he could help me and creating a plan based on what my body actually needed. I will say that the services here may not be the most affordable option for everyone, but after my experience, I absolutely feel they are worth the investment. I've already spent thousands of dollars over the past year seeing different physicians, doctors, and providers without getting meaningful relief. In comparison, the amount of relief, understanding, and direction I received after just ONE session with Ryan made this feel like a far better investment in my recovery. I would much rather invest my money into care where I can actually feel a difference and understand what we're working toward than continue spending money on appointments that leave me in the same place I started. Obviously, this was only my first session, so I'm excited to see how my body responds as we continue working together. But the amount of relief and clarity I experienced after just one appointment was enough for me to finally feel like I'm moving in the right direction. I'm incredibly grateful I found Ryan and Metatouch Body Balance. After a year of feeling like I was constantly searching for answers, leaving my first appointment feeling both physically better and hopeful about having an actual plan moving forward meant more than I can explain. If you've been dealing with persistent pain or tension and feel like you've exhausted your options, I absolutely recommend giving Ryan a chance. Five stars without hesitation.

I’m writing this review not as a customer at first, but as someone who brought my husband in for his back issues. While we were there, we had the pleasure of meeting Holden. He is such a kind, genuine person—easy to talk to, compassionate, and someone who truly listens. I’ve struggled with acid reflux and digestive issues for a long time, so I asked if there was anything he could do to help. Without hesitation, Holden took me into a treatment room and used a technique to release tension in my stomach area. It felt incredible. I actually started crying because I had been carrying so much pain, and a lot of emotion came out during the treatment. He continued with a few more techniques, and within about five minutes, I felt so much better. It’s now been a week since that visit, and I’m still feeling great! I still experience occasional reflux around hormonal changes, but overall I’m doing so much better than I was before. It truly feels like my body has finally started healing. Because of that experience, I scheduled a full treatment with Holden, and I’m excited to see what continued care will do. I’ll definitely come back and update my review after my appointment. If my first experience is any indication, he has truly gifted hands. Thank you, Holden!

I booked with them after trying massages that just didn't do much after a while. It felt like the tension would get worse and worse over time and never fully addressed the issue. I had my first session with Brooke today. It hurt so good! Brooke is strong and professional and I could tell throughout the session that she was finding tension in areas I didn't even realize were there. It's pricey but seems worth it already, my hips feel looser and my lower back pain is better already. I'll be back next week.

Wow!! Talk about care for your clients! I live in The Netherlands and found Holden Zalma on Instagram a few weeks back, I starting watching his videos and realizing a lot applied to me and my chronic pain in my lower back. I reached out and we set up a video appointment. He really took the time to hear my issues and help me with a personal plan of things I could do at home, since I'm not able to visit in person. It's been a week now and the difference in my pain is amazing! I can't think Holden enough for not only taking the time, but for caring to help me. 💜

I have been coming to Meta Touch for years now for all my aches and pains. Last year I was having issues with my foot and back. I decided to get regular massages to help. I have been coming to see Ryan and he is wonderful! He listens to what my issues are and has helped me with it all. No more foot pain and my back is so much better. I feel great after my sessions. Would highly recommend Ryan to anyone!

I have been in chronic pain for 2 years after a car accident and broken ankle. I have had epidurals, trigger point therapy, PRP shots, and nothing has been able to relieve my pain. I went on Yelp and did a deep dive, trying to find an experienced myofascial therapist that could potentially bring me some relief. At this point, it was my last hope. I walked into Metatouch, not being able to stand very long. Not being able to bend over and certainly not work out because of my pain. After 90 minutes, Holden explained to me everything that was going on with my body and my pain level went down 50%. I am now on a treatment plan and have decided to invest in his work to get better. If you've turned everywhere else and nothing has helped I urge you to make an appointment. I'm not getting paid to make this review. I just want to help anybody who feels like they have tried everything and need help.

How do I begin? I have been seeing massage/fascia therapists for many many years, thousands and thousands of dollars spent. And I don't regret any of those visits or those practitioners. However, when I found the Metatouch team, Holden and Ryan, I knew I found the team I was looking for. And Maya is so helpful too! As an active woman, I am getting thrown on the ground (martial arts), swimming miles and miles in open water, retired marathoner, and washing dishes - the body gets torn up, twisted, and often feels broken. Then I walk into Metatouch, and it's golden. They take the time to understand your movements, listen to your pains or challenges - and watch you move to offer up their own analysis/advice. They then put their magic touch on you, and WOW, you're back to the human you gaslighted yourself into thinking you weren't . I am financially stubborn and think I can youtube all my problems/solutions - not with my body. It needs to function, have mobility and feel good... the Metatouch team is the best!

Ryan is amazingly intuitive. I bought a package and in one month he relieved several years of pain in my lower right abdomen. I’m still working at what the root cause is, but now I know when it flares up—there’s a path towards feeling better with an appt w Ryan.

Paula C.

12 October 2025

Great place. Spot on regarding diagnosis and treatment options. Ryan's treatment was incredibly and his demeanor superior. They offer packages which is very nice and can be politely pushy upselling. Know that before you go so you can make good decisions and be comfortable saying yes or no.

I tour for a living, and recovering from the physical demands of stadium shows isn’t always easy. By the time I found Ryan at Metatouch, I was dealing with extreme sciatic pain in my left leg—so bad that even sitting in a car was unbearable. I had less than 30 days before heading back out on tour and wasn’t sure how I’d make it. Having trained with Jesse for nearly two years, he recommended adding Ryan’s work to my recovery. After just 5 sessions with Ryan and continuing my PT with Jesse, I’m virtually pain-free. I’m actually writing this review while sitting comfortably on an airplane—something I didn’t think would be possible when I had my first appointment. I cannot recommend Ryan and Jesse enough. Sciatic pain is no joke, but with their expertise and guidance, I’ve been able to get back to my normal routine and my work.

I have been a customer of Metatouch Body Balance for several years. It was recommended by a friend that was giving me acupuncture treatments for a traumatic back injury and episodic chronic pain that was debilitating and contributing to depression. The massage therapy treatments with the owner Holden Zalma have been positively life changing for me. My chronic pain has been managed and mobility restored. I recommend Metatouch Body Balance to my family, friends, and acquaintances. The company is organized, punctual, friendly, and experts with the professional services they provide. Much love and respect to Holden and Metatouch Body Balance. Don't hesitate, schedule an appointment and you'll experience what I'm talking about.

I couldn’t be more grateful to have found MetaTouch! After a significant and traumatic injury, the treatments I’ve received from Celeste in the past month haven’t only helped me heal from my recent injury, but have also undone years of stress-induced pain I didn’t even realize I was suffering. As someone else recently wrote in their review, I can confirm the treatments here are truly transformational. Each appointment feels like a gift, and I could not recommend the entire team enough.

Life changing! I recently returned to Meta Touch after a hiatus - I no longer live nearby, but decided it was worth the trek to get some relief. I didn’t realize how much pain was affecting my body, my mood, and more until I started seeing Cyleste a couple months ago. She is amazing! With each session she is helping my body return to alignment and full range of motion. She checks in on my progress and adjusts the treatment as needed. As the pain subsides I have more energy and am getting better sleep. It has been transformational. I am so grateful to the team at Meta Touch for getting me back on track. Highly recommended!

Holden and his team are fantastic!

Holden Zalma might be a magician! Definitely a healer!!! I've had a hurt back for about a month and I keep tweaking it. Could barely get out of bed on Saturday, and in one appointment he fixed my dislocated tailbone and all my pain is gone. Full range of motion now too. Will be going back for a follow up to make sure things stay improved, but I cannot sum up here just how much he helped me!!!

I had a great experience here. I was dealing with severe back and neck pain to the point where I couldn't lift or use a laptop comfortably. After trying a massage that only worsened the pain, I reluctantly came here despite the higher cost of $200. The owner even offered a refund if I didn't feel better. During the session, I learned my pain was caused by poor posture and craning over computers. Ryan, my therapist, worked on the root causes, not just the painful areas, and provided exercises for home. After one more session, they introduced me to massage balls, which replicate the therapist's work on a smaller scale. Now, I use the massage ball regularly, do restorative stretches, and continue lifting pain-free. I'm really grateful for my experience here, and if you're in pain, I highly recommend skipping the massage and coming here. They accept FSA, and it's worth the investment to truly address your body and relieve the pain.

I wish I could give 6 stars. Holden and the whole team just changed my life for the better.

I’m indebted for life and could not recommend Holden and the MetaTouch team more highly!

Amazing set of practitioners here. I also love the remodel! For massage, they are on the pricier side, but totally worth the decrease in pain. The sessions are so amazing, it leaves me enjoying the rest of my day. I highly recommend Ryan - he’s got great assisted techniques that are helpful at reducing pain and feel very relaxing.

Excellent facilities with parking on the street, don't use the parking structure Meta are not affiliated. I suffer quite a bit from muscle pains and I've looked around for help with various places I highly recommend Meta both for massage (Ryan) and Workouts targeted to damaged or painful muscles (Jesse). Also there is always a warm welcome at the reception with exceptional organization and appointments on time.

Recently booked an appointment with Holden to help me tackle some shoulder and IT band issues. Holden provided an awesome session. He reviewed everything he had planned and talked about the source of most of my issues and how to be more proactive in taking care of myself. I walked out of the appt with full range of motion in my shoulders and considerably more mobility in my hips, arms, legs, etc! Highly recommend Holden and his team.

I highly recommend MetaTouch!! When my family doc and orthopedic could not help my back pain, Holden diagnosed my problem and treated me to become pain free. He provided changes to my routine and home exercises which got me back to perfect. I am so impressed and appreciative. Their facilities are state of the art and the energy is healing and calming. If you are in pain, this is the solution!

Brett L.

My experience at MetaTouch was outstanding! When my primary doctor and orthopedic surgeon could not help me, Holden diagnosed me and treated me and gave me exercises to do that helped me get out of pain and get back to full activity. Their facilities are state of the art and the energy is healing. I highly recommend metatouch for anyone in pain and seeking a solution that works.

Incredible work performed by Holden. I never really have suffered an injury before, and I had knee pain that popped out of no where. Desperately wanting to get back to my intensive exercising , Holden had me exercising again in 3 days. He taught me more about my body than any doctor specializing in podiatry or scolioses I grew up seeing. Thank you so much for everything! Fantastic experience:) Updated review today 05/27/23 I had the pleasure to work with Jessica as well and my goodness I left skipping away in joy! I feel myself again!!! my hips & the shorter leg that had been completely thrown out of wack is back to its neutral position and my injured shoulder feels much better all in one session! What an angel very blessed to have been able to see her! Ryan was also incredibly skillful saw him for the first time 03/13/24 for a reset to the hips again! He also left me feeling better everywhere I came in complaining about discomfort! Also a very nice dude! Being a heavy duty athlete and singer, he even took the time to help loosen and help me feel better in my diaphragm area under my rib cage… weirdest experience ever but also the best! …man I left like always do…extremely happy :) Thank you!!

I come to MetaTouch for massage therapy and personal training both. Jessica is an incredible massage therapist. Highly recommended for chronic and/or injury induced pains. She is the best massage therapist I’ve used and very knowledgeable about body mechanics and identifying targeted areas that need work to relieve pain permanently. It’s not a spa massage - these sessions are meant to help minimize pain and keep your body functioning the way it was intended. I have recurring and intense pains in my upper back, neck and shoulders from a sports injury (indoor rock climbing) and Jessica has definitely brought down my pain levels significantly over the month or so I’ve been coming here. I also started training with Jesse Olmos, who is a great personal trainer and knowledgeable across disciplines of personal training and some physical therapy as well. He has been very patient helping me as I work through basic body mechanic and movement issues caused by years of sitting behind a desk and lack of proper exercise. We have been focused on slowly helping me rebuild strength in the areas I need to enjoy sports/hobbies (climbing, snowboarding) and live my day-to-day pain free. That said, none of this is a miracle cure; it takes time and patience, commitment and doing the work on your own time also. While I felt hopeless after my initial injury at first, I now see the light in terms of living pain free and feeling stronger and healthier in doing the activities I love. I feel very fortunate this shop is right down the street from home and will continue to see her regularly going forward.

I went in to MetaTouch for a super tight hip flexor from sitting too much + running/biking. Very uncomfortable, would bother me in my sleep. I started going to Ryan Cardenas there a year ago and he got me right on the path to recovery – very focused work, knows exactly what he's doing, and is a nice guy on top of it all. I am leaps and bounds ahead in my recovery and am doing all my activities with 90% less discomfort. Almost there! Ryan is the man, go to him and get fixed up.

I went to Ryan at Metatouch for three months, every other week. It was a good experience for me. I told him what my issues were, and he went to work on those specific problem areas. The work was focused and deep but never painful. These guys are healers with a purpose and a calling. I went to Ryan, and i will be returning and recommending this place.

I was in awful neck pain after sleeping on a new side sleeper pillow. I tried so many things to heal - I went to several massage therapists, Thai massage, a chiropractor and did warm yin yoga to help stretch it out. Nothing worked. Then I came here and they healed me in one session. It was more expensive but so worth the money. I highly recommend this place!! Also my mother is a fantastic massage therapist and my uncles are osteopaths in France so I know a good treatment when I get one and this is hands down one of the best treatments I’ve had! It cured my neck pain and overall has helped. I will def be back and highly recommend them to anyone experiencing neck, back or shoulder pain.

This is my second time getting treatment from Marty. This time it was my knee. My knees are usually fine, but after two weeks of being unable to fully bend it or kneel on my left knee. I was worried I'd need an MRI. I decided to go back to Marty who had helped me with my lower back once before. That was yesterday. Today my knee feels like new. Can't recommend Marty and Metatouch more highly. Thanks again, Marty!

I am writing this review to save someone from thinking they have no choice left BUT to do surgery because their pain is so bad. STOP, BEFORE YOU DO SURGERY SEE HOLDEN ZALMA AT METATOUCH!!! I have been in chronic pain for 8 years, from a bad car accident, and doctors have told me (after years of massage therapy, chiropractic work, facet join shots, acupuncture, pilates, you name it) to just go get surgery. I FINALLY got real and lasting pain relief from MetaTouch in Culver City. Holden Zalma and his team are amazing health practitioners, their MyoAlign Technique is a GAME CHANGER! Wow - I am so glad I opted NOT to do surgery and allowed Holden and his team to really treat and cure the point of my pain. It's GONE! THANK YOU MetaTouch - I wish more people knew you existed you are a true healer. Thank you!

Jessica McCargar is amazing. I'm an older man, very athletic, who receives regular massage. I usually ask for deep, but it's because most masseurs don't know what they're doing. Jessica's knowledge of the body gave me more relief without the pain associated with deep tissue. I was completely transformed. I'm grateful to discover her.

24 March 2023

I have been going here for years and its always amazing. All of the great reviews regarding Holden are on point. I recently started going to Ryan and he is also so great. He figures out where the pain is coming from, what may be causing it and how to fix it. I've gone to him for neck/back issues, hip issues, feet issues and jaw issues and its always phenomenal. I definitely recommend!

Marty Howard goes above and beyond! Highly recommend him. He came highly recommended form someone and I was not disappointed. With only one session my pain was gone. It's worth the price and they really care about you. Thank you very much! Besides health has no price

After major back surgery last year, I experienced chronic, often severe pain. I tried everything in the book and got nowhere. Medical Massage was mentioned and somehow I connected with Metatouch and linked with a special therapist, Marty Howard. When I began 4 weeks ago I could not stand while the Keurig was brewing; I waited sitting on the kitchen chair. Now, I stand without pain or discomfort while brewing java, preparing 2 over easy and warming up 2 croissants. Feels like a bit of heaven go me. Howard is a gem; he probably is overqualified for the job and the entire Metatouch operation is all about healing. Want a Swedish massage? Go to Sweden.

Holden is a whole different type of healer. I'm a circus performer and acrobat with lots of old injuries and recently I was rear ended and my rib and shoulders have been thrown of. I have barely been able to pick up water with my right arm and it's been terrible. Hard to sleep at night and nearly impossible to do my job. My boyfriend recommended me to him and the first session was very helpful and I saw a shift, and he set clear expectations it may take 3 sessions ... and I just walked out of my second session the first time pain free since the accident! I almost can't believe it, he's a miracle worker! He's also the kind of healer that doesn't want to do a quick fix but to provide long term support so hopefully after my 3rd session I can go on with my life, and if something new comes up (hopefully not), I'd go back (but also happy to go back because he's hilarious, professional, skilled and frankly a nice guy!) thank you again!!

I started seeing Holden a couple of months ago after seeing all of the positive reviews. Over the past year and a half, my body had just seized up with limited mobility almost everywhere - likely as a result of strength training stress coupled with severe stress and anxiety at the time. I walked in feeling pain everywhere and also pretty scared that this was just how I was going to feel going forward. After the first session, my mobility was greatly improved AND I was able to sleep on my back for the first time since probably 2015. After a few successive sessions, I can now say that while I still need to work on my mobility, I'm able to move pretty well - so much so that I'm back in the gym for strength training. I also hadn't realized how much effect the immobility was having on my mood and energy levels. As of a couple of weeks ago (after the sessions mentioned above), my mood and energy levels have improved dramatically - as in, I'm bouncing out of bed and I'm staying active, productive and engaged throughout the day. It feels fantastic. If that's not enough, Holden is also great to work with - he cares about his clients' progress and the root causes of the pain. While my initial visit was a necessity, my follow on visits have been a pleasure. I'm very grateful.

I can't even begin to describe how thankful I am to have been referred to Mr. Holden. I was on 6 straight days of excruciating pain, unable to eat, sleep or even think. My jaw was out of place and tight and in pain, not even ice or pain killers would soothe. On my first session with Mr. Holden I felt immediate relief, he really took the time to work on every part of my body, by stretching, massaging and adjusting. He took so much pressure off my jaw, the pain finally subsided. I had no idea that TMJ was this real and the level of desperation you get not being able to open or close your mouth was unbearable, holden was God sent. Thanks for helping me!.

Holden has helped me tremendously, recently! I had a chronic preexisting hip issue for a very long time with pain! I was recommended by my physical therapist to go see Holden. Less than two months later from the first appointment, I feel great! Somehow he was able to identify the problem, and have more mobility and pain free! Thank you Holden for your expertise with finding my ailment and giving me pain relief! Grateful for Holden! Scott Schuler

Come here ASAP! I was dealing with sciatica and back pain for weeks and in two sessions I’m pain free. The owner Holden and Jessica are great!

Met Holden Zalma by random chance. Only a short conversation was needed for me to trust that he had identified the potential source of my ongoing nerve damage condition----- an issue I was unable to resolve with my primary physician. From the very beginning of the PT sessions, I experienced immediate improvement. He has magical hands and a healer's heart and "listens" to the core of the problem by using multiple modalities associated with body alignment and blood circulation. Thank you, Holden! You have me back on a healthier path.

I’ve been to see Holden several times, but he most notably helped me with immense back pain I experienced during my pregnancy and he was a miracle worker! Another time I had a muscle spasm in my back (not pregnancy-related) and could barely move/breathe and he got me loosened up and moving again so quickly!! Both times were emergencies and they were able to get me in same-day to stop the pain. This place is like none other!

Above and beyond service I had my second appointment today with Jessica. She’s very friendly and professional, knows exactly what she’s doing, and has been really helping my lower back strain. Furthermore, when I was leaving, the owner (a gentleman named Holden) happened to be there and asked us what the issue was and Jessica explained. He then asked if he could take a look too, and took spent an additional 5-10 minutes working on my back. Wonderful service, really appreciated. Thanks everyone. Highly recommend.

Jesse, Holden and the rest of the Metatouch team have been phenomenal in helping me identify and treat some persistent issues I've had with my back, neck and shoulders. The sessions are amazing for helping with specific issues, I feel dramatically better each time I leave. Beyond the sessions, they've helped me to understand my issues better and have helped me modify my exercise routine. I've been telling all my friends and family about them, couldn't recommend them more highly.

Before doctors or physical therapy go to Holden FIRST. Hurt my shoulder playing volleyball. Went to UCLA and they sent me to a MRI. Then PT. Two months later it was still hurting. Holden looked at it for 2 seconds and said "your shoulder is out of the socket". Fixed me in 20min.

I found Metatouch through a Google search, and I'm so glad I did. I've seen Holden a few times now, and every time I leave, I can't believe how much better I feel and how much more range of motion I have. I've continued with my at-home exercises and have really noticed a difference. True that it's a bit costly (at least for me,) but it's your body, right? It's so worth it. :)

Got pain? Don't know where it's coming from? Have seen a chiropractor for 5 years and nothing changed? Been told to take Rx medication and the symptom comes back the next day? Ain't nobody got time for that. Go to Metatouch. RIGHT NOW. Holden will make your aches and pains disappear and it won't take him 3 years. Simple as that. Also, the entire staff is very helpful and welcoming! Glad I was referred to them.

I was in a bad car accident September 2020 where I was hit on the freeway and my car totaled. I received several chiropractic adjustments and Sports Massage Therapy which helped but could not alone get me back to my previous state of health since I still have pain I started to get very worried after being still in pain about my healing progress especially during Covid times with so many places being closed and not available to me while on my path of recovering. I was so happy when I finally found Meta Touch and the amazing team which works there. I feel that I'm in very good and experienced hands While getting my weekly MyoAlign therapy sessions from Edgar as well as physical therapy sessions from Kevin. I also had a great healing session with Holden who is the owner and has Many years of experience and an tremendous knowledge of the body. Everybody here from the reception "Staf" to all the therapists " Holden", "Edgar", "Kevin" and "Jessica" are very kind, positive and professional. They took time explaining everything to me and Making me feel comfortable throughout the sessions and my healing process. I feel very optimistic that they will be helping me to get back to my healthy self again with the therapy regime in place. I know it will take some time to heal proper and to strengthen my body & will do my part by continue my homework /exercises. Parking is easy on the streets and might be still free since the meter is not in service. I can highly recommend this team of body workers and therapist

My 14 year old, had been suffering from carpal tunnel, headaches, hamstring aches for months. As a 14 year old in the time of Covid, all of his school instruction, homework and his social interactions (playing online games with friends) is on his laptop. He has been suffering for weeks, Holden quickly identified the problem, provided immediate relief- physical therapy massage, and provided simple exercises/stretches that he may perform during the day to prevent further damage. Highly recommend Metatouch.

MetaTouch is my go to place whenever I have any issues! I've run marathons, I am a mother, run a business, and wearing high heels have not helped my body stay in balance. Holden puts me right back into alignment and I find myself standing up straighter, taller and feeling lighter when I leave. I've been seeing him for years and no matter what issues you are having he will talk them through with you, work with you and help you through it! I am constantly impressed with him and his staff every single time I go and recommend his services highly!

A gifted healer. Just by looking at you, Holden can tell what's out of balance and he knows exactly how to fix it. I have scoliosis and left shoulder trauma from a car accident. I'm also a triathlete. Holden customized my treatment to target exactly what I needed to continue to train and to just feel good. He also has the best bedside manner; relaxed, chill, and a genuine want for you to be pain-free. I could not possibly recommend Holden/MetaTouch Body Balance any higher.

If nothing seems to be working... THIS WILL! I'm an active person and have dealt with some chronic pain in my hips and knees. since my mid 20's. I'm a triathlete; training for an ironman and went to Holden for help. His intuition and innovative techniques had me walking out of there AND training 15-20 hours a week pain-free. I recently broke my wrist and have been seeing Holden to speed up my recovery from the surgery. My OT can't believe the progress we've made so quickly! I can't say enough about this place. It's a life changer..

Holden is very good at looking at you and knowing where you are unbalanced, bunched up or cramped! He manipulates your muscles, tendons and bones back to where they are supposed to be. I swear I am an inch taller when he is done with me. He also has a dry sense of humor and has me in stitches while he works on me. Holden is an amazing kinesiologist and I am grateful to have him in my life!

Top notch therapy. Was referred by a friend for my daughter, who is a dancer. Holden was able to help with her various physical issues. A couple of years later, I went to him for shoulder pain that was keeping me up all night. He diagnosed me with a dislocated shoulder and after an hour of massage therapy, I was feeling great. Had my first good sleep at night in years. Am now getting weekly therapy with him and Nic Bartolotta. Couldn't ask for anything better. Both are amazing individuals and therapist. Highly recommend. Stellar therapists and amazing human beings. What else can you ask for?

I had such an incredible experience seeing Jessica for prenatal massages throughout my third trimester. She is warm, welcoming and just gets it! She is skilled and knowledgeable when it comes to prenatal massages (even focused on areas that could help induce labor when it was close to my due date) and she doesn't shy away from deep pressure. It was SUPER comfortable to be able to lie on my belly with the special massage table with a bump hole! She has a wonderful calming energy and truly made me feel like a new woman after every session. Thank you, Jessica!

Love this spot but more specifically Kevin! Very intuitive with my body knows exactly what it needs. I work out a lot so my body is often in bad shape but Kevin knows how to put it back together 6/5 stars. Go see him!

Kevin deserves all of my accolades. I came to him with a severely torn shoulder labrum which many doctors (surgeons, acupuncturists, chiropractors, and physical therapists alike) deemed fixable only through extensive surgery. Before Kevin's help, I could barely bring a glass of water to my face without serious pain and potential dislocation. After Kevin's help, I returned back to normal, pain-free life and my previously injured shoulder is now stronger than my "healthy" shoulder! I am beyond grateful to have found Kevin's help...this guy knows his sh*t. There is hope!

Kevin is an amazing physical therapist, I would highly recommend. I had chronic lower back pain that was getting worse by the day. I couldn't stand for more than twenty minutes at a time without getting pain. I was leaving class early every day. But after two sessions with Kevin, I am practically pain free. He showed me excercises I could do to strengthen my core, and by changing my posture and habits, my pain disappeared.

Holden is a miracle worker! I’m so grateful for his healing skills and understanding of the mind and body connection. Yesterday I came to his office with sever neck pain. He gracefully treated my neck and then got to the root of my pain with a full body Energy Healing session! It was extraordinary - just like Gwyneth Paltrow’s recent Goop Lab episode on Energy Healing. I have to say I was a true skeptic of the type of treatment and nothing but a BIG believer now! The healing was instant and I still feel light as a feather today, Thank You Holden!

This place is great! I tried a couple other places for physical therapy for a back injury I sustained while weightlifting a while ago with mediocre results. I was referred to this place by Siavash from Sixpax gym, where I was a member at the time and which is just down the street from Metatouch (I figured, this guy knows how to work out, surely he's got a guy for PT for himself and his clients). I had an initial phone call with Holden and he was telling me about how they try to make sure their clients are healed for good, and how it didn't work out to be a great business model, but that's what was important to them. I thought, that sounds great, but it also sounds like the kind of thing someone would say on an initial phone call. And that's not me being suspicious or distrusting, just having a healthy skepticism after some mediocre experiences elsewhere. But as I turned out I had no need to be skeptical. I worked with Devon, who was great! He did excellent work in evaluating me and finding tight spots, and also explained in great detail his process, and in anatomy and physiology terms, not in "holistic" or otherwise obscuring terminology. After 2 sessions he said to come back in two weeks, and after that in a month. He gave me exercises to do, and instead of wasting our time showing me how to do the exercises, he just sent me youtube videos, which I personally really appreciated (I can figure out how to do an exercise on my own, but I can't do body work on my own). I've made real progress on my injury and feel almost completely back to normal. Devon also made his email available and encouraged me to email him with any questions or issues I had, which I did, and he responded quickly and with good detail and more youtube exercise videos, and we discussed how it was going at my next visit. Overall, I'm impressed at the level of knowledge and also with how they kept their promise of getting me better and not having me come in week after week. Will not hesitate to recommend these guys to anyone.

I just saw Holden for much needed alignment. The session went great -- I was seated on time, Holden was very informative and explained the reasoning behind his techniques and the best part is I feel much much better now. It's very clear that exercise alone is not enough to stay healthy and and these sessions are a great starting point. Five Stars for sure.

I've been coming here for a few years, I used to see Cathy. Earlier this week I suffered a tragic loss and my therapist recommended getting a massage because the power of touch can help heal. Cathy no longer is there so I saw Philip, another massage therapist who also does energy work, for the first time. I explained the loss and pain i felt and he listened. I told him to do whatever he felt best to help me to heal and process the pain I was feeling. I was nervous in the beginning because I knew I would be emotional and I hate crying in front of people- let alone a stranger in such a vulnerable environment. Well, I cried a lot during the session but it was in such a cleansing way. I felt grounded by the end of the session and have felt a lot better the few days since. I am so grateful for the energy work and massage therapy I received. I will definitely be back to see Philip, hopefully next time I won't be such a sob.

Holden is an extraordinarily talented healer. I had a labral tear in my right shoulder due to a poor adjustment from a chiropractor. For several weeks, I had severe pain, popping and clicking and was unable to sleep. The muscles in my upper back and neck had turned to stone and my range of motion was greatly reduced. An ortho had recommended a cortisone injection and PT which would most likely have turned into a need for surgery. In 3 visits, Holden fixed the pain in my shoulder as well as the other areas impacted by my injury. He instructed me on home exercises and now my right shoulder has the same ROM as the left! (PSA - do your homework! It makes all the difference.) Holden even helped with pain from 2 epidurals that I had suffered with for years. I highly recommend his services and am looking forward to getting a massage from one of his highly-skilled therapists in the near future.

Couldn’t speak more highly of my experience with Holden. Healed a deep shoulder pain I’ve had for 12 years in under 5 minutes. Needless to say, I was stunned. He’s uniquely gifted at scanning the body in a holistic way and identifying the often hidden and unexpected root cause of pain.

Massages feel great and all. But when I really want to undo the damage that the years have done to my body, I go to Holden. He has an unparalleled skill-set and he understands physiology on a whole other level. I feel dramatically more mobile and agile for long after a session.

Holden is fantastic! I was having a lot oh headaches, even migraines, that were leaving me in a constant state of disequilibrium and brain fog. I was really suffering. I had two sessions with Holden. He worked on the areas he felt would contribute to my problem (all the while explaining what and why he was doing things), and gave me some things I could do at home as well. Fast forward a week or so, I had an employee ask me how I was feeling...I had to think about it!! I was so used to being consumed with how poorly I was feeling all day that I forgot what it felt like to not have pain. It was a great moment when I realized my answer was “I feel good!!”... I went 4 months without any issue after that. I plan on going back monthly for maintenance. I figure I can either pay a guy that genuinely cares about my well-being and addresses what’s causing my pain, or I can pay my doctor and the pharmacy god knows how much to just mask the symptoms. It’s a smart investment for my health and I’m grateful to Holden and his great staff for the positive experiences so far!

MetaTouch is exactly as my friend who recommended it to me described. It's a no-frills kind of place that is meant to dig in and fix you up. Quite possibly one of the most effective massages that I have had. My therapist got to the problem and worked it out very well.
