About Us

---

Hi, I'm Jonathan Boland, Certified Massage Therapist and founder of SPOT Massage Therapy. At SPOT, your healing is my focus.

SPOT (Sports Performance Optimization Therapy) is aptly named for my targeted bodywork to relieve discomfort in trouble spots, but it also plays on my background in gymnastics, "spotting" athletes for safety, and as a lifetime dancer "spotting" turns.

While I specialize in working with gymnasts, dancers, divers, and acrobats, I provide transformative massage therapy to all body types and movement histories. My sessions combine deep tissue work, sports massage, myofascial release, and proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation to decrease pain, enhance mobility, calm the nervous system, and support full recovery.

Before completing my training at the National Holistic Institute and earning my certification, I spent more than 15 years supporting physical and emotional well-being through complementary practices, informed by my graduate studies at Columbia University. I bring clinical knowledge, intuitive touch, and a deep respect for the body’s innate capacity to heal.

I am passionate about going beyond relaxation to facilitate healing at a deeper level, relieving chronic pain, preventing injury, and improving overall physical function. 

I am committed to inclusive, affirming care for all races, ethnicities, genders, sexual orientations, and abilities. Let’s work together to help you move better, feel stronger, and heal faster — one spot at a time.
