About Us
Creative Bodywork and Massage is a gay-owned, LGBTQ+ affirming, private clinical massage studio in Vancouver, WA. We are Jason and Greg Kiser — both Washington State licensed male massage therapists and Vodder-certified Manual Lymphatic Drainage specialists, serving Vancouver, WA and the greater Portland, OR metro area.
Our studio is appointment-only. No front desk staff, no waiting room full of strangers, no upsells. When you arrive, you are the only focus.
We built this practice around a simple belief: massage therapy is healthcare. Whether you are recovering from an orthopedic condition, managing chronic tension, addressing lymphatic concerns, or seeking the deep restoration of authentic Hawaiian Lomi Lomi, your session is designed around your goals — not a service menu.
Our Philosophy: Creative, Intuitive, Inclusive
We move beyond "routine" massage. By blending technical expertise with an intuitive touch, we craft each session to address exactly what your body needs in the moment. Whether you are seeking relief from chronic pain, recovering from an injury, or simply needing a sanctuary from the daily grind, our approach is designed to foster deep rejuvenation. Our studio is LGBTQ+ affirming and all bodies are welcome here without reservation.
We keep our schedule intentionally small. New client spots open regularly.
Book online or text us directly — we respond same day.
Meet the Therapists
Hello, I’m Jason Kiser.
MLD-C - OMMS - Mana Lomi Master - ANMT
In 2006 I traveled to Kona, Hawai'i and trained in Temple Style Lomi Lomi at Aloha Massage Academy — the birthplace of the tradition. That immersive training became the foundation of my massage and bodywork practice. Fourteen years later, I returned to Kona to study Mana Lomi under Dr. Maka'ala Yates, (the creator of Mana Lomi) and completing Master Level 3 — the advanced neuromuscular clinical application of the Hawaiian bodywork lineage.
The pattern in my training is deliberate: I don't just study modalities, I study under the people who defined them. For orthopedic massage, that means Whitney Lowe .-I completed his full Orthopedic Medical Massage certification program and trained under him in person at the Costa Rica School of Massage Therapy. For myofascial work, that means Til Luchau — Massage Therapy Hall of Fame inductee, author of the Advanced Myofascial Techniques textbook series, and co-host with Whitney Lowe of The Thinking Practitioner Podcast. I also hold a Vodder Manual Lymphatic Drainage MLD certification — the gold standard in MLD training.
I am currently enrolled in the Advanced Neuromuscular Pain Therapy program at the National Holistic Institute — a 450-hour, federally recognized advanced massage therapy program.
I work with clients dealing with chronic pain, postural issues, lymphatic congestion, sports recovery, and stress-related tension.

Hello, I’m Greg Kiser.
MLD-C - OMMS - Mana Lomi Master - ANMT
Before I ever picked up a massage credential, I spent years as a certified personal trainer and biomechanics specialist — building a deep, functional understanding of how the body moves, compensates, and breaks down under load. It’s that knowledge that I bring to the massage table.
The pattern in my training is also deliberate: I don't just study modalities, I trained under the people who created and defined them. For Hawaiian bodywork, that means studying Mana Lomi through Master Level 3 under Dr. Maka'ala Yates — the creator of Mana Lomi — in Kona, Hawai'i. For orthopedic massage, that means completing the Whitney Lowe OMMS certification program and a in person clinical residency under Whitney Lowe at the Costa Rica School of Massage Therapy For myofascial work, that means studying directly under Til Luchau — Massage Therapy Hall of Fame inductee, And for lymphatic work, I hold a Vodder Manual Lymphatic Drainage MLD Certification— the gold standard in MLD training.
My sessions are grounded in deep restorative massage therapy and bodywork for people seriously dealing with chronic pain, limited range of motion, post-surgical recovery, or the accumulated cost of physical labor and high-output living. Every session begins with an assessment — not a menu of options — because the body tells you what it needs if you know how to listen.
