Born in Wisconsin in 1998, Mario Calderon Rodriguez grew up in a large, close-knit family with both parents, two sisters, and five half-siblings. Diagnosed with glaucoma early in life, Mario began his journey with 95% vision loss — a challenge that shaped his extraordinary sensitivity to touch and deepened his commitment to helping others.
After exploring different career paths, Mario took a chance on massage school and discovered his true calling. Training under Dr. Jeffrey Montoya, he developed a deep foundation in therapeutic bodywork and continued to expand his skill set well beyond graduation in early 2019.
Today, Mario holds certifications in Massage Therapy, is a Reiki Master, and a trained Crystal Healer. His practice draws from over 13 modalities — including Swedish, deep tissue, sports massage, reflexology, raindrop therapy, chakra balancing, and more — allowing him to craft truly personalized sessions for every client.
Mario believes that prevention is the best medicine. His approach combines evidence-based therapeutic techniques with holistic healing practices to address not just symptoms, but the root causes of pain, tension, and imbalance.
A naturally inquisitive individual, Mario is always learning and seeking new ways to help his clients reach their wellness goals. Whether you're dealing with chronic pain, recovering from an injury, or simply need to unwind, he will use everything in his extensive toolkit to create the perfect experience for you.
When he's not helping clients, Mario enjoys fitness, health and nutrition, continuous learning, spending time with animals, comedy, and a good steak.
