I should have known better (including NOT hiring an uncut provider). While Bruno is comely in appearance, obviously has a brain, and is pleasant to interact with, the massage skills are largely absent.
Session occurred in an unremarkable 4th floor walk-up in Hell's Kitchen; need I say more. Like many other providers, massage is a secondary source of income for one or more loftier purposes. Kudos to him. At $200, for 60 minutes -- actually more like 45 minutes -- shame on me. I will not be repeating and suggest that others exercise more discretion that I did.
