I’m looking for any recommendations on primary care physicians that cater to gay male patients. Although I’m sure they are all professional, I’d Prefer someone who is part of the community and understands life/concerns typical for a gay male. There’s a lot in the area….many with mixed reviews.

For those who live or lived in the LA/Valley area in the 2010’s, is anyone familiar with a hot Latin masseur by the name of Randy Orozco? I think he went by RandsHands on any massage platform that he advertised with. He used to do his massage sessions out of a chiropractic office “after hours” as well as some private gym facilities. He was in great shape, sexy, straight flexible 🤣 and offered great bodywork. I’m hoping someone is familiar with him to compare stories and find out if he’s since retired or resurfaced somewhere?

Can you share how this would help if the car was a lemon?

The chiropractic session I had which I hoped would have released the nerve/muscle did not. Now the pain is traveling to the front of hip. When I take a step, my back feels stiff and then a nerve pain shoots from my hip/front pelvis down my leg.

How was your session with Ryan Driller? I remember seeing him naked at LA Fitness in Hollywood and was kind of star struck. Isn’t he straight? I didn’t realize he escorted with guys - was he passionate and into it, or just going thru the motions?

What car did you get where they wouldn’t budge on price?

That’s a good idea to get more from my own vehicle. I honestly don’t care how much I get, I just don’t want to deal with selling it myself. Or I may give it to my young nephew

If I express interest in financing, are they more flexible with the cost of the vehicle? Is the industry black book online?

Yes. NX350h. I bought the IS250 when they first came out and there wasn’t too much wiggle room since the demand was so high for the new model. I don’t remember how I ended up landing the deal, but appreciate your suggestions.

I’m in the market for a new vehicle, pretty set on the Lexus NS350h. MSRP is around $55.0k if I’m not mistaken. It’s been awhile since I negotiated the price of a car. What is the best way to buy a vehicle in today’s market? Internet sales? Salesperson on the lot? And my big question is, what’s the best approach to negotiation? What is a reasonable price request to shoot for? 5-10% off MSRP? Any tips? I plan to pay cash for the vehicle. I may finance a small portion just to keep my credit score up.

How did that work with her and others as headline entertainment at a bathhouse? Was there a separate area with a stage that required you to be covered?

Wow! Would also love to hear if anyone has had a session with him!

I know there are a lot of Alex and Max’s in the masseur pool, but here my Go To guy in Sherman Oaks. https://www.masseurfinder.com/massage-therapists/20988/ This guy is strong, well trained and definitely knows the body.

looks like he was a member of Delta Chi at USC.

Wow, interesting find! They are using the same website format as Thai Wellness, but their quoted rates are $5 cheaper. I wonder if another business owner is competing for their business? Another thing I noticed is that the masseurs do not list if they are a part of the LGBTQ+ community. Would be interested to hear any feedback from those who have visited this location.

Who is this trainer you listed? Is there a link you provide?

Thanks for the suggestions. Last night was brutal, I couldn’t sleep because every move made me flinch. I’m pretty sure it’s a pinched nerve. Asked my chiropractor if heat or ice is better for these injuries. He said ice for inflammation which would be nerve related and heat for relaxing muscles. So for me it’s a combo of heat/ice for 20 minutes alternately as many times a day as needed. He also used electrical stimulation which was not pleasant on a tender area like I’m experiencing. Got an adjustment so we will see if the treatment works. I’m taking Tylenol but would prefer something stronger.

I’m going to try ice and hope that works. It may actually be a pinched nerve since it hurts to stand and walk. Seeing a chiropractor this afternoon.

Don’t forget that there is the option of flying into Long Beach (LGB) which a very small airport and easy to get in/ out. So much better than LAX.

How do you guys handle a low back strain before being able to see a chiropractor? I don’t even know what I did to trigger the muscle, but it is super painful to stand or walk without a limp. I have a heating pad, but the muscle doesn’t feel like it’s relaxing.

Wow, would love to hear if any one has the pleasure of booking a session!

Palm Springs has the best mid century modern architecture. You can drive or bike thru the many neighborhoods in the Greater Palm Springs area and admire the history and beauty of the homes and buildings. It’s very old Hollywood if you appreciate that era.

I second the opinion about avoiding Twin Palms. It’s a newer completely renovated resort but it is very cramped, sterile and the walls are paper thin. I could hear the guest in the next room snoring loudly. They are under the same ownership as Santiago and Descanso, but did not have the resort “feel “ due to the size of the property. However, the service, hospitality and attendants are top notch. My favorites are Santiago, Inndulge, Hacienda. Haven’t tried Vista Grande Resort but that place has a reputation for being “frisky”. Have fun in the desert!

Where in the West LA area was this? I don’t recall that kind of operation happening or I would have attended! LOL. How did they advertise? Was it on Craigslist?
