Chenoah Hartzell-Brezina, BA, LMT, Owner
Chenoah began his college career at SOU. Majoring in Art and minoring in education, he completed his degree and worked with at risk youth. After 9 years of working with youth, he traveled the world returning to his home town of Ashland. Working at the Ashland food Coop, Chenoah recognized his passion for healthy living. 
Chenoah decided to pursue a career in massage. Combining his life and work experience to create healing for others has become his core focus. Chenoah graduated from the Ashland Institute of Massage and continues to enrich his education.
Chenoah offers therapeutic massage, based on communication and trust. His gentle and intuitive, yet strong approach infuses technical expertise with deep relaxation. He blends elements of Swedish, deep tissue, Cupping Therapy, CranioSacral, and Myofascial Release massage to create a treatment plan tailored to the unique needs of each client. His goal for each session is for those he works with to reconnect with their inner wisdom to create healing. Chenoah enjoys working with clients who have injuries and are dealing with chronic pain; he addresses site-specific areas, while integrating the whole body in the massage session.
Chenoah holds his license with the Oregon Board of massage therapy LMT #22546
High praise for Chenoah Hartzell-Brezina! I have been frequently visiting Chenoah for deep tissue work for months and can highly recommend his work. Chenoah possesses all of the hallmark traits of an outstanding massage therapist: intuitive, present and attentive to specific needs, combined with expert knowledge of the human body and effective technique. Chenoah always takes the time to check in and figure out the best plan of action before each session. Communication is open and easy: he frequently checks whether you would like more or less pressure (and for those of you craving true deep tissue, he definitely has your back!). What’s more, the atmosphere at Meridian Wellness is inviting, warm, quiet and private. The combination of the relaxing space and Chenoah’s outstanding level of care and service have made me a regular. Whether for relaxation or pain therapy, you can’t go wrong with Chenoah!
Best Regards / Mit freundlichen Grüssen
I have had the privilege of receiving massage from Caitlin Fears of Meridian Wellness for the past eight years. I know that when I see her I will always get an incredible massage. Caitlin’s deep tissue and CranioSacral work is intuitive and healing.
I was excited to see her husband Chenoah when he joined Meridian. I am happy to report I was not disappointed. Chenoah has the same intuitive gift. Each time I have seen him he thoughtfully asks what I’m looking for but also seems to tune in to areas I may not have even known needed attention. Chenoah comes to his work without ego. He has always made me feel at ease. Those who might have been nervous in the past to see a male massage therapist should see Chenoah. His energy is calming and nurturing and you will not be uncomfortable. I would highly recommend Chenoah. As a self described “spa junkie” who has had massages all over the world I feel lucky to have Chenoah and Caitlin available to us in Medford.
