I came to Aaron with pain and numbness that neither doctors nor specialists could figure out. I had gotten to the point where I was walking with a cane.  Aaron was able to determine where my problems were, and his work has relieved the numbness and removed my dependence on Advil, Tylenol, and Aleve (and on the cane!). He definitely knows what he is doing, and he is very good about letting his clients know exactly what he is working on and why. He has created a warm, welcoming, safe environment in his studio. Aaron is serious about his profession, and his sincere goal is to help his clients lead pain-free lives. I’m thrilled to have discovered his services and look forward to continuing to work with him.   Beth Penney

Aaron is a highly trained massage therapist and healer. He has many years of experience which allows the intuitiveness and skills massage therapists can only acquire with time and years of training. I highly recommend Aaron’s massage and give his massages 5 stars. Kelly Anne Hughes

Imagine your body just locks up. You know what I'm talking about? For me it starts in my neck but affects my whole body. Think of it as being crammed in and then locked up in one of those black office safes, and no knows the combination. They know you're in there, but they can't get you out. Yes, there are a variety of practitioners who run their hands over the surface of the safe. These therapists help a lot of people, but they're not dealing with a body in lock up! You need a safe-cracker! Enter Aaron who before body work was a machinist. He taps the surface of the safe and sounds for the human inside, sending back a message of compassion: help is coming. He digs into a huge tool box for exactly the right implements. He whistles as he fiddles with the front dial. Hold your horses he says, this is going to take a few minutes! Then presto, the door swings open and a fully intact human emerges. Lock up is over. Sound miraculous? For Aaron it's all in a day's work. Try him out. Freedom will be your reward. Tom Lee

Aaron is one of the most amazing strong spiritual individuals I’ve come across in my path of life! His work is truly healing..I’ve now had 7 sessions with Aaron and many encounters for I’m his landscape help! I work hard and push my body to its limits and my first session with him I had a rotator cuff injury that was a year and a half long pain I though I needed surgery for and he fixed it in one amazing session! He’s guided an out of place rib back into place and has made my aching body like new again..I am truly grateful to have him as a friend in life and a true healing massage therapist! He’s very comfortable to be around and although we’re friends he’s strictly professional when it comes to our healing sessions..I highly recommend him to everyone who has pain in life or just needs to relax and have some time to pamper them selves! He’s not afraid to do everything he can with all of his strength and energy to heal others, so don’t be afraid to let healing into your life!  Melissa Haaf Hobson

Aaron Maschmeyer is a good soul. He is not only gifted in the healing arts, but he is also warm, nurturing and has a fabulous sense of humor! He has worked on me at least twenty times and has always listened intently, worked with me as a partner, and made me laugh hysterically (we are cousins) in the healing process. He has been extremely instrumental in helping me recover from several sports related injuries that no amount of pain killers, muscle relaxers, exercises or stretches could touch. He has changed my life and gotten me on the road to recovery multiple times... Ann Lowrey

I highly recommend Aaron and Morning Star Bodywork. I have been seeing Aaron for 6 years and have received over 70 sessions. I had an athletic injury that needed surgery and after months of physical therapy it still wasn’t right. Aaron improved it from the first appointment and quickly got me back to full function.
Unlike some other massage therapists, he really is a medical professional that takes the time to learn your body and problem areas. He goes to work where you need it to relieve pain and disfunction. I’ve seen my trigger points and pain melt away after he works on them.
He has policies in place to safe guard his patients and help them feel comfortable. He is also a man with high character and high morals. As a healer he also works on mind, body, and spirit. Respectfully, Eric Brown DDS
