Meet Aaron Martz, LMT

I’m Aaron — a Licensed Massage Therapist based in the Ann Arbor area, and the practitioner behind Golden Crane Massage Therapy & Energy Work.

My path into bodywork came from a simple observation: how rare it is, in our day-to-day lives, to be touched with full attention and no agenda. A good massage is more than the sum of its techniques — it’s an hour where you don’t have to perform, explain, or hold yourself together. That’s what I try to offer in every session.

How I Work

I trained in several traditions and weave them together in each Integrative Massage, depending on what your body is asking for that day. A session might begin with broad, flowing strokes to settle the nervous system, move into focused myofascial work where tension is locked in, and include polarity-based energy work to help everything integrate. We’ll talk before we begin so you know what to expect.

My Training

  • Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT), Michigan
  • Training in massage therapy, myofascial release, polarity therapy, and foot reflexology

Outside the Studio

I love walking in the woods with my cat, foraging mushrooms and plants, and enjoying my community of friends. Cranes hold a special place in my heart for their gentle yet powerful orientation to life.

If anything here resonates, I'd love to hear from you.
