Saw Ari this week. He looks exactly like his main profile photo and he's a cutie. Technique wise, his deep tissue kneading technique is B+ and my 90 min massage lasted closer to 80 mins. He's got two beautiful dogs and a cat but keeping his home clean and free of pet hair, especially where he has his home studio setup, is not his strong suit or priority. The face cradle of his massage table had good amount of pet hair that I had to brush off a few times (to prevent breathing them) and seeing a handful laying on the floor below his massage table through face cradle opening wasn't too pleasing to say the least. Thankfully, another user tipped me on the limited sensual offering when you opt & pay for it, and Ari forgot that he quoted me a slightly lower amount than what he offered today when we initially corresponded: I declined when he offered it. Might repeat with him but likely will explore other masseurs in MSP first before returning to him.

Thanks for the feedback. He's going to be a hard pass for me.

Wow he went from conservatively therapeutic to deli. Not exactly surprised since his kneading skills were on the mediocre side of things.

Anyone seen him?

Have a lot of other things I can do with $250 but not for a newbie masseur who claims to have 16 years of experience with no client testimonials. Did some searching and he's also had a landscaping business for a while now.

He's a total useless masseur.

Has anyone seen Jay: https://www.masseurfinder.com/massage-therapists/49751/ He's been visiting Baltimore regularly and looks like he lives there now.

Anyone seen Isaak? https://www.masseurfinder.com/massage-therapists/51037/ Someone inquired about him on this thread but no replies:

Bump. In dc now.

Bump he's in dc. Anyone seen him?

You saved me precious time and money by not hiring him.

I am pretty sure this is the same masseur as Don: https://www.masseurfinder.com/massage-therapists/32125/ As I mentioned in my comments on a thread of Don's MF profile, he's a useless straight masseur that cater to gay men. Massage is swedish based and B- at best with no solid deep tissue kneading skills, and no sensual elements whatsoever.

Saw him couple years ago. He allowed no draping but was strictly therapeutic. Doubt that has changed. His kneading style is swedish based and doesn't possess solid deep tissue kneading skills. Otherwise I'd see him again.

His services are *not* limited: saw his twitter content and he's a full on deli provider.

Yup recent photo & deposit are absolute no nos.

He's been discussed before and you can find threads on him with his MF profile # 36965 https://www.masseurfinder.com/massage-therapists/36965 User reviews do not sound too promising

Here's a thread on him. Saw him few years ago and Fljock's review pretty much sums up my experience: decent pressure but doesn't have a high level of deep tissue kneading for someone who's athletic himself.

Thanks. That's a bummer.

Can I ask you what happened to his body? Are his pec muscles gone altogether or has he gained lots of weight for him to compromise his muscular definition?

I can vouch that those photos are probably a decade old or so.

No one on this forum for sure.

And I really feel for any gay men that would hire him just for a massage because they are stoked by being touched by a guy next door type middle aged straight masseur like this one.

"Female and couples are welcome! Specialized in female body hair trim and shaving." Why in the world would he advertise this on rentmasseur where men are the primary audience??

It's nice to see that Ari has resumed his massage practice. When I reached out to him couple years ago on my Minneapolis trip, he had just injured himself (workout related I recall) and was told by his doctor to take an indefinite break to allow full recovery and I was unable to book an appointment with him. Rather disappointing as MSP is slim pickings for M4M masseurs. I will PM you shortly.

What a beautiful creature. Surprised he has yet to receive a single review on his RM profile.
