At Zen With Ben in Austin, TX 78704, every massage I give is deeply shaped by the education and philosophy I received at the Lauterstein-Conway Massage School.
Known for producing some of the best massage therapists in Austin, Lauterstein-Conway gave me not just techniques, but a deeper understanding of the art and science of touch.

Why I Chose The Lauterstein-Conway School
When I decided to become a licensed massage therapist, I knew I wanted the best education possible. That’s why I chose the Lauterstein-Conway Massage School in Austin, TX.Known for its outstanding deep tissue training and holistic approach to massage therapy, Lauterstein-Conway Massage School Austin TX shaped the way I work with every client today.
David Lauterstein’s teachings emphasize something that resonated with me:Massage isn’t just mechanical. It’s artful communication with the body.
Through the program, I learned not only Swedish massage and anatomy but also Deep Tissue methods that are precise, intentional, and deeply effective.
Using the Lauterstein Deep Tissue Method at Zen With Ben
Today, I proudly bring what I learned at Lauterstein-Conway into every session I offer at Zen With Ben.
The Deep Tissue Lauterstein Method is different from just “digging in” with heavy pressure. It’s about working slowly, listening to the tissue, and applying just the right amount of force to create real change — without causing unnecessary pain.
When you book a deep tissue massage with me in Austin’s 78704, you’re getting a session built on:
Layered Touch: Working thoughtfully through superficial to deep muscles
Listening Hands: Feeling where tension lives and responding with care
Structural Awareness: Helping realign posture and movement patterns
Compassionate Focus: Respecting your comfort while addressing real issues
David Lauterstein often speaks about the balance between technical skill and human artistry. At Zen With Ben, that philosophy lives in every customized massage I give.
Why It Matters?
There’s a difference you can feel. Clients often tell me they leave feeling not only relaxed but more connected to their bodies — more aligned, lighter, and calmer.
In a fast-moving world like Austin, where we’re always chasing the next thing, I believe massage should be about returning to yourself — not just treating symptoms.
That’s why I’m so grateful for the foundation I built at The Lauterstein-Conway School and the continuing inspiration from David Lauterstein’s teachings. It’s more than a massage — it’s mindful bodywork designed for real healing.
