My name is Jonathan Garcia, a licensed massage therapist and owner of Align Sports Massage.I first became interested in bodywork after dealing with my own sports-related injuries as a professional cyclist. After trying other recovery methods, I turned to massage and trigger point therapy, and the results changed everything. That experience sparked a deep passion for bodywork and alternative therapies to help people get out of pain and stay that way. I graduated with honors from Bear Heart School of Massage Therapy, earning certifications in Neuromuscular Therapy and Personal Training. I opened my first private practice in Fort Collins, where I had the opportunity to work with professional cycling teams such as BMC Racing and Rally Pro Cycling Team, while continuing to grow my own client base. Later, I joined ProActive Physical Therapy in Fort Collins, where I gained extensive experience working with a wide variety of clients, from those recovering from surgery or managing chronic pain to athletes addressing sport-specific performance needs. After returning to my hometown of Louisville, Colorado, I opened Align Sports Massage in Lafayette. I’m proud to continue growing my practice and supporting this incredible community through functional, performance-driven bodywork.
