Jonny is a LMT from New York and the owner of @brooklynbodymechanic. He looks like a rough, tough man’s man and at first glance, with his branding matching the look. He was introduced to us by our most aired guest, Nicki, as they used the same coach and speak the same language. Through our conversation with Jonny, many layers were removed and we learned that aside from being the Brooklyn Body mechanic, he’s also an evidence based practitioner, a mindset coach, a trans-friendly therapist, an ex-military man who left a super high rank, and overall cool person that is striving to make the massage world a better place.
