Owner & Lead Therapist

Stephen John Blasen, Massage Therapist and owner of Live Well Therapeutic Massage had a vision. After years of hard labor and raising four beautiful children in his home state of Michigan, Stephen wanted a change - a change of scenery, lifestyle, and career. With a kind heart, he sought out a career in the health field where he feels privileged to help others. He decided to go back to school and became a massage therapist and with his adventurous spirit, he decided to take his new found knowledge to California and start anew. Years later, Steve has not looked back. Steve explains, "When my clients tell me that I help relieve their pain, ailments, and injuries; I know I made the right career choice. It is a joy to see my client's health improve with the work that I do. I am grateful for the ability to help others improve their health through therapeutic massage."
