Adding him to my nyc masseurs list. I like that he states:
And, yes, if you’d like, I can send you a photo on WhatsApp.
A scheduled appointment booked one day in advance receives a $20 discount.
Looks like I need to make a trip to nyc soon.
If you are looking for solid deep tissue kneading, his is not quality: C- at best. Made a mistake of hiring him for 90 mins as he could only manage swedish kneading at the time. Also highly doubt that he's a ymmv provider: both of those factored in, I'd save my time and money for another masseur if I were you.
He lists a "zero-tolerance policy for sexual harassment" on his website stating that massage will terminate immediately with no refund for the remaining time.
I don't remember his previous RM handle but he is a name changer. Thought about hiring him when he was in dc for a while but didn't get around to it.
If someone remembers his previous handle and posts is on this thread, you should be able to find it with search function.
I had a similar experience with another masseur in the summer where the masseur had 2 dogs and a cat. There was pet hair pretty much everywhere and how you describe Travis' place is exactly this masseur's house, too. I don't know how these masseurs do not understand that they need to provide a pristine spa environment even when operating from their home.
Noticed his MF profile as well for a while and while I'm not sure what it is, I am just not inclined to hiring him: not sure of any type of a nice/memorable massage experience he can bring and the two user feedback confirms my observation. Let's see if other users report something more positive for us to consider.
Thanks to @LocalGuy I gave Healing spa a try and had a solid deep tissue massage from Chris. Strongly recommend them for reasonably priced spa massage treatments.
