About the Business
Meet The Founders: Jose & Maxine
We’re a husband-and-wife team dedicated to health and wellness, firmly believing that regular manual therapy and effective movement practices are essential to a healthy, pain-free lifestyle.
With over 20 years of combined experience in healthcare and a lifelong passion for organized and alternative sports, movement is at the heart of everything we do. We believe that everyone has the potential to move well—and move often.
Our journey began in 2011 when we met at the gym while in college. In 2014, we launched Avalon Massage Therapy, primarily offering massage therapy. However, we quickly recognized a gap in our clients’ musculoskeletal health related to movement. Eager to bridge this gap, we pursued extensive training in assessment and rehabilitation. In 2017, Jose completed his degree in Manual Osteopathy, and Max followed with a degree in Osteopathic Manual Practice, graduating in 2023.
In 2022, we took a bold leap of faith, moving our family and business to sunny Naples, Florida. Here, we were presented with the opportunity to purchase Naples Massage and Neuromuscular, an established business founded by fellow Canadian Tabatha Petersen. We are proud to merge our Canadian expertise with the exceptional team of therapists and customer care associates at Naples Massage and Neuromuscular.
Our clinic is growing, and we are thrilled to help our clients return to their favorite activities and sports, including golf, tennis, pickleball, polo, and more.
