ACCOLADES
Steven gives 110% in each session. His talent in sensing inflamed, damaged and/or sore areas of the body is amazing and
I always leave the session feeling alive, flexible and pain-free. In all, he is by far the best massage therapist I have been to.
Steven’s personality is one of acceptance and kindness, which goes a long way in this harsh world. I would definitely
recommend him to anyone seeking a long-term course of massage therapy.” –
Shelley Tan, Client
“I have been a Doctor of Chiropractic in the Santa Barbara area for the past 30 years. Over this time I have had the
opportunity to experience a considerable number of massage therapists, both employed professionally as well as
receiving therapeutic massage myself on a regular basis. I have recently been receiving massage therapy from Mr. Steven
Lehner, concentrating on various musculoskeletal conditions I have suffered from resulting from years of athletic injuries.
I must say that I am not only thoroughly enjoying the relaxation from Mr. Lehner’s treatment, but also the deep and
specific therapeutic benefits from his intuitive talents. Mr. Lehner is very professional and thorough; always paying
special attention to the conditions my body presents him with. I am going to continue to receive massage from Mr.
Lehner; I highly recommend his as a “world class” massage therapist. If I may offer any further recommendations or
insight into the benefits of Mr. Lehner’s massage abilities, please do not hesitate to contact me at my office.

“[Steven] is a very capable, compassionate and an attentive therapist. As an athlete (tennis player), I have chronic areas
that need to be treated repetitively, and Steven has been very good at treating those specific areas. I would recommend
him to any business seeking an outstanding therapist, employee and person.” –
Angie M. Huff, Client
I have known Steve as a student in the classroom, as a therapist in the clinic and as a personal friend. Steve displayed
great dedication to his study and practice of massage. He has particularly developed his capacity and competence in
Trigger Point Therapy and Deep Tissue Therapy. He was well received in our clinic and developed his own following of
return clients during his practicum training. Steve’s bedside manner with clients is a mix of playful, good humor and
genuine caring and concern. I am happy to recommend Steve for employment.” –
