Massage therapy, sport-specific coaching, and corrective exercise — three pillars run by one licensed provider. Book a single service, or stack any two or three into a Hybrid Session so the pieces actually talk to each other.
Pillar
Sports Wellness Coaching
Train the sport, not the gym.
Sport-specific programming for rotational athletes, endurance athletes, and explosive-power athletes — built to move better, hit harder, and recover faster.
Sports Wellness Coaching at Hands of Time is programming built around your sport — not a generic gym plan you had to bend to fit. Rotational athletes get hip / thoracic / core work that translates directly into a bigger drive on the tee, a harder wrist shot, a cleaner swing, and a stronger paddle stroke. Endurance athletes get conditioning that respects run economy, aerobic base, and the specific joints your event pounds on.
Rotational sports covered include golf, hockey, baseball, pickleball, triathlon, Ironman, and marathon. Conditioning programs are built for runners and soccer players. Explosive-power work is written for football and power athletes who need force output in short windows.
Every athlete gets an assessment first — movement, asymmetries, and sport demands — then a program that stacks on top of your existing training instead of replacing it. Coaching happens on-site at Mission Accomplish Gym in Kennewick.
Personal Wellness Coaching is for the person whose sport is life. It covers Beginning Performance training for people new to the gym, Corrective Exercise programs written to relieve nagging pain (low back, shoulder, knee, hip), and Nutrition Motivation + Education delivered as an ongoing newsletter you can act on week to week.
The flagship program is "8 Weeks to Wellness" — a 4-to-8 week corrective exercise plan that maps the problem, rebuilds the pattern, and gives you the drill library to keep it fixed. Sessions run one-on-one so movement gets coached, not just counted.
Every coaching relationship starts with a movement assessment so we know exactly what needs to change before we ask you to do anything hard. The result is a program you can actually stick to, and a body that stops fighting you.
Massage Therapy at Hands of Time is not the spa version — it is licensed clinical bodywork focused on getting you out of pain and back into training. Deep tissue work targets the layers of muscle that cause chronic tightness. Sports massage is programmed around your event or injury and specifically improves mobility and flexibility as you recover.
Cupping and IASTM (Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization — also called "scraping") are used as needed to release fascia, break up scar tissue, and speed up recovery between hard training blocks. Sessions can be booked as pure massage or bundled with training and coaching (see Hybrid Sessions below).
Booking runs on MassageBook — pick your product, pick your time, and Byron will confirm within the day.
Hybrid Sessions are the signature of Hands of Time — the reason the tagline reads "a wellness practice that does more than massage." Instead of picking one service and hoping it works, you stack the ones you need. Corrective exercise + deep tissue in the same hour. Sports coaching + IASTM after the workout. Personal training + a nutrition check-in.
Because Byron is one licensed provider across all three pillars, the pieces actually talk to each other. The massage informs the training. The training informs the corrective work. Nothing gets siloed, and nothing gets duplicated.
The most-requested stack is the Corrective Exercise Program bundle: two one-hour sessions that pair the corrective plan with pain-relief massage. Message Byron to build a stack that fits what you need this week.

Ask Byron
What is the difference between deep tissue and sports massage?
Deep tissue targets chronic muscle tension by working the deeper layers of muscle and fascia, and is used primarily for pain relief. Sports massage is programmed around a specific sport, injury, or recovery window — it emphasizes mobility, flexibility, and recovery between training sessions. Both are offered at Hands of Time and can be combined in a single hybrid session.
What is IASTM / scraping and what does it help with?
IASTM stands for Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization — commonly called "scraping." It uses a smooth-edged tool to release fascia, break up scar tissue, and improve blood flow to injured or stiff tissue. It is especially useful for tendinopathies, post-surgical scar tissue, and chronic tight areas that have not responded to hand-only massage.
What sports does Byron coach?
Rotational athletes: golf, hockey, baseball, pickleball, triathlon, Ironman, and marathon runners. Conditioning-focused athletes: runners and soccer players. Explosive-power athletes: football and general power athletes who need force output in short windows. Every program starts with a movement assessment before any programming is written.
What is corrective exercise?
Corrective exercise is a programmed sequence of drills and mobility work designed to relieve pain by rebuilding the underlying movement pattern that caused it. It is not stretching — it is targeted retraining. Hands of Time's "8 Weeks to Wellness" program is a 4-to-8 week corrective plan that maps the problem, rebuilds the pattern, and hands you the drill library so the fix sticks.
What is a Hybrid Session?
A Hybrid Session stacks any two or three of Byron's services into a single visit — for example, corrective exercise + deep tissue in the same hour, or sports coaching + IASTM after a workout. Because one licensed provider delivers all three pillars, the massage, training, and coaching pieces actually inform each other instead of being siloed.
