Who is Chuck Worley?

I received over 900+ hours of massage training at De Anza College including 2 internships at Stanford University working on their top level NCAA athletes.  I also have many continuing education hours in several different massage modalities which I incorporate into my sports and deep tissue techniques.  I am very active in the local Silicon Valley Chapter of the American Massage Therapy Association.  I have been Nationally Certified in Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork since 2005.  Recently California established a system for statewide certification.  I am also California state Certified as a Massage Therapist.

I opened my massage business in Los Gatos in 2005.  My Sunday and Monday office is located immediately behind the Los Gatos Whole Foods Market.  For those of you who know the area, I like to tell my clients that I am located at the junction of Peet's Coffee and Noah's Bagles.  My massage room window looks out onto a small forest of Redwood Trees beyond which lies Noah's Bagels and Whole Foods.  My other window looks across Blossom Hill Rd at Peet's Coffee.  I now have a second office for Wednesday appointments inside the newly expanded Bikram Yoga San Jose located next to the Orchard Supply Hardware in Westgate West Center at Lawrence Expwy and Prospect Rd.

I am not your typical massage therapist.  I am 65 years young.  My wife, a teacher, and I raised our 4 childern and they have all flown the coop.  I am retired from the Silicon Valley Semiconductor Industry where I spent 1/4 of a century working as a process engineer for National Semiconductor Corp making wafers and chips.  I am very logical and research oriented in my approach to massage.  Lots of anatomy books.

I am a former Triathlete who no longer cycles.  I still call myself a Triathlete because I actively participate in 3 sports:  Swim, Run, and Yoga (far better for my low back than cycling).  I am just over 6 feet tall with long arms so I physically have the height, length, leverage, and strength to perform Deep Tissue massage.  But I also love to provide Swedish/relaxation massages too.

loosening up tight muscles,

relieving trigger points,

releasing adhesions in knotted up muscles then I am your man.  

And I still perform wonderful, totally relaxing, full body, foot and hand massages.
