Purpose
LightSource Healing Arts was created to offer a quieter way of working with the body.
The body holds areas of tension, injury, and protection that do not resolve through force. When listened to carefully, these patterns can begin to release, allowing the body to settle and reorganize naturally.
That’s what I’m here to support.
Meet Josh
Josh Thomas
Licensed Massage and Bodywork Therapist #16694
Welcome. I'm really glad you're here.
I began teaching yoga in 2012, which was my first real exposure to how much the body holds. That led me to bodywork, and I’ve been working with clients since 2017.
Over time my work became simpler and more focused. I found that lasting change didn’t come from trying to fix the body, but from listening closely and allowing the body to respond in its own time. Sessions are unhurried and guided by what the body is ready to do.
Outside of work, I’m a husband and dad. Life with my wife and kids keeps me grounded and reminds me daily that healing begins in safety, connection, and presence.
Professional Background
My early training was in structural and therapeutic bodywork, which gave me a grounded understanding of the body anatomically and mechanically.
Over time I was drawn toward work that addressed the nervous system more directly, and found that lasting change didn’t come from trying to fix the body, but from listening closely and allowing it to respond in its own time.
CranioSacral Therapy became the center of my practice because of its depth and its capacity to support that process without force. I’ve been a Licensed Massage and Bodywork Therapist since 2017 and have completed multiple levels of training through the Upledger Institute, with ongoing advanced study and mentorship.
I also serve as a Teaching Assistant within the Upledger CranioSacral Therapy curriculum, supporting the training of other practitioners in the foundational coursework.
