About Me.
In 1991, Macen started his journey in massage therapy, aiming to offer relief and caring. Over the years, his mission expanded far beyond physical healing. He became proficient in various massage techniques, including Deep Tissue, Swedish, Sports Massage, and Trigger Point Therapy, catering to diverse client needs.
Beyond physical well-being, Macen obtained training and certification in mental and emotional support practices so that he could guide individuals holistically. He trains and empowers individuals and groups to define and achieve their life goals. He's a global educator, conducting workshops on energetic physiology and spiritual self-connection.
