Silas Littlefield CMT ( certified massage therapist)
(360) 778-9309 (text is best)
520 Misson St., Santa Cruz , CA 95060

As a transgender man, I have a deep and personal appreciation for the way that massage can support the body's continual evolution, healing, and transformation. I have a particular affinity for the work that is needed to help a patient heal from the gender affirming surgeries that dramatically rearrange the fascia and muscle structures of the body. While I am committed to working particularly within the queer community, I am honored to engage with people from all backgrounds, in service to the idea that all people deserve to feel safe and at home in their bodies.
