Oh, I understand now. Thanks AndyDandy!

I think you will find this Chris IS mentioned in this thread if you look closely. (Where do you think I got the link?)

I think this might be the Chris to which reference was made. He is one of my favorites.

Not in my experience!

Bencleve29, my experience with Danny was definitely a "bust" too and not in the good sense of the word.

Giving this a bump since it may have been lost in the holiday lull.

Hello. I split my time between NYC and East Hampton. The massage options in EH are pretty limited, so I am looking for any referrals since word of month is likely a better option. Thank you. (Feel free to private message me, if that's more appropriate.)

I totally agree and appreciate your input!

That was not my experience at all. The massage was OK but there was NO edging or HE. Chalk it up to chemistry, I guess.

I noticed the name, but I'm not sure how you can draw that conclusion from the photographs.

I think this is a case of chemistry and YMMV. I think Chris is a standout option. He's a regular go-to for me. https://www.masseurfinder.com/massage-therapists/35781/

Sean's massage skills are excellent! I'm somewhat of a regular.

You summed up my experience exactly. Thank you Beethoven. Definitely a tease and definitely a disappontment.

Hi folks. I was doing a little googling and came across Massage by Eddie / Top Massage Therapy in Manhattan and I wondered if anyone had any intelligence on Eddie. (He doesn't seem to have a MasseurFinder or RentMasseur or Rent Man profile.). Thank you in advance for any details you can provide. @HEDave

I think you may be onto something!

My view (that has been countered previously) is that the decision to-tip or not-to-tip and how-much-to-tip is dependent on the quality of the experience including the chemistry between the parties. I am very selective and as a rule always tip and when I find an exceptional masseur, I become a regular (and continue to tip). In guess, gauging from this thread, I am VERY generous, but then again when I checkout of hotel, I usually leave a tip for the housekeeper even if I've never seen them.

I may tip generously, but I think it is worth every penny and I guess that is what it comes down to in the end -- my perceived value. If that makes me a fool, so be it.

I pretty much always tip. Of course the amount of the tip is dependent on the quality of the massage. For new masseurs, I might tip $50 or so, or round up to the nearest hundred -- Charge $130 and I give $200. Now for the masseurs with whom I have more of a connection and the massage quality is good, I might go as high as a 100% tip. It really depends on the connection with the individual. There's lots of mediocre offerings out there. When I find someone I really like, I think it is important to reward them accordingly. (I don't know where I stack-up with other tipping practices.)

Hi JayMR07. There's a year's gap between the prior and your post to the chat string. I'm not even sure Keith has RM or MF offerings any longer. At a minimum the links don't work. How did you hear about him and how recently were you in touch with Keith? Have you found other RM and MF entries? Thanks. I think this is his current MF profile: https://www.masseurfinder.com/massage-therapists/15145/

Thank you for the clarification Nick.

I've circled Tim a few times, but haven't booked with him. Any information would be helpful.

Hello there Jerrynyc. Have you got a link for Xavier?

They all see to have phone numbers, when I look at their profiles. 646-693-6696 (maulen) 917-900-0176 (victory) 917-410-3013 (joel someone)
