Sean has had a passion working in wellness, yoga, and bodywork for over a decade. Growing up in Virginia, he was involved in competitive sports and mixed martial arts for a number of years finding joy in learning about the body’s flow state and pushing his physical limits. After some minor injuries and the eventual wear and tear, he naturally gravitated towards immersing himself in the world of yoga and various areas of the private and corporate sectors of the wellness industry. Optimizing the body’s health and performance through diet, supplementation, movement, and exercise has been a magnetic interest throughout his life.
After Sean attended college in Santa Monica, he pursued education as a Registered Yoga Teacher specializing in power flow, yoga nidra, and vinyasa. Eventually he decided to take his passion for wellness off the mat to participate in peoples healing journey directly and became licensed in massage through Isothermal Community College. Sean excels at addressing acute and chronic pain through myofascial release, traction, and deep-tissue massage techniques. He is also trained in traditional cupping and gua sha, and aims for each patient to achieve a state of deep relaxation and release during their treatment.
Sean is a local resident of Rutherfordton with his partner and son, where he is a Yoga Instructor and co-owner of Pacha Yoga Studio in downtown Rutherfordton. He loves spending time in nature, supporting his local community and raising his infant son. He looks forward to helping you find and release deep-seated and stubborn tension!
