Your massage therapist
Meet James Vang, LMT
James is a licensed massage therapist whose work centers on personalized therapeutic care. He helps patients address muscle tension, support recovery from physical activity, and care for their overall well-being.
His background as a competitive athlete gives him firsthand insight into the physical demands placed on the body. Whether your day involves training, desk work, or caring for your family, he tailors his approach to your needs.
A thoughtful range of techniques
James specializes in sports massage, deep tissue massage, full-body therapeutic massage, and East-West massage—a blend of Shiatsu and Western techniques. His work also includes instrument-assisted soft tissue therapy, with cupping available upon request.
Start with your story
Understanding your tension and daily demands
Your session starts with a conversation about what you feel and what you want to work toward. Understanding your routines and concerns helps shape care around you, rather than applying the same approach to every body.

- Where you notice tightness, discomfort, or limited movement.
- How work, exercise, and daily responsibilities affect your body.
- Relevant injuries, health concerns, and current care.
- Your goals, preferred pressure, and areas you want addressed or avoided.

Connected care
Massage and chiropractic: a nervous system-centered approach
Massage focuses on muscles and soft tissues. Chiropractic care looks at spinal function and its relationship with your nervous system. These distinct approaches can complement one another within a personalized care plan.
Dr. Vanessa Gale’s practice emphasizes NetworkSpinal and understanding the root cause of your concerns. Looking at your movement, tension, and daily demands together keeps care focused on the whole person—not just an uncomfortable spot.
