Hello and welcome to LionHeart Massage. My name is August C. Taliaferro and I am.a licensed and certified massage therapist. I studied at Fortis College in 2014. Fortis College is a technical school that houses dozens of trades like HVAC, dental assistant, medical assistants and massage therapy to name a few. I’ve been licensed since 2015. I’ve been practicing massage therapy for 11 years and counting. I enjoy performing massage. It has opened so many doors. I’ve been blessed with this gift of intention and I’ve been honored to serve 1000s of people. I am a Man of God 1st. I look forward to meeting and working with you.

Massage therapy is more than a treatment, it’s a calling. I bring a deep commitment to helping clients restore balance, relieve pain, and reconnect with their bodies. With 25 years of professional experience and a compassionate approach, I create a space where healing feels natural and renewal feels possible.

I offer a range of therapeutic modalities tailored to each client’s needs. From the gentle flow of Swedish massage that melts away stress, to the targeted precision of deep tissue therapy for chronic tension, to sports massage that supports performance and recovery, and prenatal massage that nurtures both mother and child—every session is designed with care and intention.

My approach begins with listening—understanding your goals, your challenges, and how you want to feel when you leave. Each treatment is delivered in a calm, welcoming environment, enhanced by soothing music, soft lighting, and aromatherapy to help you fully relax.

Beyond the massage table, I believe in empowering clients with tools to maintain their well-being—whether that’s simple stretches, posture tips, or stress management techniques. My mission is to be a partner in your wellness journey, helping you feel your best not just during your session, but every day.

Whether you’re seeking relief from pain, recovery from injury, a way to manage stress, or simply a moment to breathe and recharge, I’m here to help you move easier, feel lighter, and live more freely.
