SCHEDULE WITH JAMES*

Treatment Philosophy: "My goal with every patient is to empower by bringing about more awareness of his or her own body.  Pain brings most people in and is my focus for treatment; however, through a series of appointments, my goal is to bring a greater harmony and balance to every Body, thus promoting better sleep, improved digestion, increased energy, and an equanimous mental state only possible through a well-harmonized system."

Biography

James grew up in Omaha Nebraska, moving at age 18 to Milwaukee, Wisconsin to study Mechanical Engineering at Marquette University.  Upon graduating, he moved to Germany to work for an international telecommunications company.  After one year, he was laid off and spent that summer traveling through Europe, where he fell in love with the curiosities of the world and found a deep desire to see more of it.

After years abroad and explorations stateside (funded by waiting tables), James finally found his home in Bend and his calling as a practitioner of Chinese Medicine. Beginning his studies in 2009 at the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine (OCOM) in Portland, James found an interest in bodywork.  In 2011, he received his massage license and started Evolutionary Bodyworks - later to become Evolutionary Medicine - as he continued his studies of Chinese Medicine. Upon graduating from OCOM in 2014, James continued to expand his practice, eventually moving his family back to Bend in 2016.

James has a tremendous love of the outdoors and enjoys 
hiking, camping, running, biking, and skiing.  He lives in Midtown Bend with his partner April, and their two young sons, Silas and Asher.
