From HIV Care to Myofascial Mastery: Tim’s Journey to Holistic Healing

About me

"Welcome to Tim's Holistic Healthcare! I'm Tim, your dedicated guide on the path to wellness. Born in the warm embrace of Columbus, Georgia, and raised in Huntsville, Alabama, I've always felt a deep calling to serve, heal, and bring comfort to others. This passion led me to a life in healthcare, starting with providing HIV respite care support through Birmingham AIDS Outreach in 1994 and working with the disabled residence program at UC Berkeley.

My journey in bodywork began at the National Holistic Institute, where I learned the fundamentals of massage therapy and developed a thriving practice in deep tissue and neuromuscular techniques. However, it was the transformative power of myofascial release that truly shaped my path. Under the mentorship of Richard Hoff, a student of the renowned John Barnes, I embarked on a profound exploration of this specialized method.

Since 2002, I've been privileged to share the benefits of myofascial release with the Berkeley community. My practice goes beyond bodywork; it's about fostering a connection between body and soul, facilitating healing and balance from within. I find joy and renewal in life's simple pleasures, like music festivals, dog walks, mountain biking, and yoga, which enrich my own well-being and remind me of the beauty and interconnectedness of life.
