Ron is a powerful Healer, Master of the Body. It's not just a massage, it's healing on all levels.-- Mila
I was gifted my first session with Ron and as a birthday present from friends. It was the best gift they could have
given me. Not only did I receive the best massage I have been given, but I felt Ron understood that I was there not
only for a great massage, but as self care for myself, and made the experience second to none. For starters, the
ambiance was peaceful. I felt immediately calm when in his presence. Followed by a massage that made me feel like
Ron had figured out my daily routine and what muscles I work too hard and which ones not enough. It was a
massage tailored to me without me having to say what I needed. What else could you ask for? It made my brain and
body happy. Fast forward to today where I felt like I could lift stronger and run faster. Ron is a master in body
manipulation in all the right ways.I will be back! — Liz R.
Ron is magical..., he is extremely knowledgeable and talented, i didn’t want my massage to end. His techniques are
unique and helpful. He incorporated stretches to give me better range of motion. He found, and worked on areas of
my body that i didn’t even know needed it. I will definitely book with Ron again -happy (smiley face) — Anonymous

Selfishly, I want to keep Ron and his incredible abilities to myself but that wouldn’t be to fair to the world!I met Ron
years ago while he was working at another massage therapy place and I had the foresight to ask for his card. He left,
establishing his own business and I will never lose his number.Ron is extremely intuitive, knowing exactly the areas I
need extra attention and works with such patience to relax my muscles. He also understands the body and helps me
increase my range of motion in a gentle, yet effective manner, leaving me feeling relaxed and aligned. His gentle tone
and firm touch lulls me into a relaxing state, which is much needed. The end of my massage sessions leaves me
feeling as if I have spent hours relaxing and reconnecting with my mind, body, and soul. — Alena M.
I’m not a stranger to massage, but this was my first 90 minute. Beautiful setting for the massage. I trusted and was at
ease with Ron immediately. He was very respectful and explained things well. He explained our body is 360 degrees
and I love that he had me lie on my sides, during the massage. I’ve never done that in a massage before. I was sore in
a few areas from a previous workout and he handled those areas wonderfully. I felt so much better! He was very
thorough with the massage and I was beyond relaxed at the end. I found the pressure of the massage perfect. I
definitely will come back and I live about 90 minutes away. Definitely worth the drive! — Shelley
I have been to Ron for both one-on-one personal training and massages. His positive attitude and passion for
wellness is evident and contagious. Best massage you will ever receive!! Ron is truly incredibly at what he does. He
listens to your exact needs and goes above and beyond on spots that are extra painful. I saw him while I was
pregnant and postpartum. He was great help during my aches and pains of pregnancy and healing postpartum. Truly
wonderful person and cares about his clients!! Thank you for everything, Ron! — Catherine B
I found Ron just browsing Google and needed short notice massage for terrible back pain. He was super responsive
and scheduled me same day in the afternoon. Amazing! He runs promotions once in a while via text that are
definitely worth it! Not only is this the best experience (I can’t say it’s just a massage..it’s so much more) but he ends
up being way more affordable than other spas if you go more than once. I’m hooked.-first visit- I did the 120 minutes
therapeutic massage. Let me tell you, he worked the hell out of my body! Stretches and massaging on all sides. I
didn’t even know I had hip pain until I somehow felt better the next day. Ron knows what he’s doing and can feel any
little thing in your body that needs extra attention.- second visit- I did 150 minutes and this time I just really needed
to relax and distress. I was tense, tired, stressed and my face hurt due to sinus pressure and migraine. I just texted
him that i basically wanted to be “comatose “ by the end. Ron curated an experience that was just perfect. Totally
different from the first time . I appreciate that he really listens to what you need and every time you go it’ll be a one
of a kind experience. — Mirela A
Ron is professional, drove 40 miles to get his magic massage. Highly recommend. Olzhas S
By far the best massage I’ve ever had. Ron knew exactly what type of pressure my body needed to release the
tension. He made sure to communicate with me as needed also. He was professional and took his time to make sure
my experience was the best ever. I will definitely be going back to him in the future! — Lisa A
Great attention to detail. He asked loads of questions and tailored the session to my needs. I’ve had 9 surgeries and
massage has been part of my recovery for all of them. I’ve been to several providers over the years, and this was the
best first session I’ve ever had. Normally it takes a little time to establish your problem issues and the right
techniques and pressures. Ron seemed like I had been visiting him for years. He asks loads of questions to properly
asses and fix your issues. If you’re looking to get some problem areas addressed instead of just zoning out and
relaxing, this is the guy for you. — Anonymous‘
I have enjoyed all the massage sessions from Ron. He always starts the session by asking how I feel and if any part of
my body hurts… then applies the massage to effectively help me relax. I am a runner… his massage consistently
helps me run extra miles or speedy recovery from long distance running. In addition, he provides beautiful music
and essential oil to make the whole experience very enjoyable. Highly recommend everyone to try! — Qing.. ‘
I am an ex pro baseball player (pitcher) with chronic shoulder and lower back pain. One of the best things that
happened to me this year was working with Ron. Ron has been a key reason in the betterment of my muscular
health. He is totally capable, prepared and professional. My experience with his massage treatments has been
fantastic and he has my utmost respect that I’m in great hands. I highly recommend Ron if you’re in need of a great
therapeutic massage that focuses on long term health improvements. Thank you Ron. — Beto…’‘
Ron is a great massage therapist. He is very attuned to the body and knew exactly the areas that needed to be
focused on. I appreciate his dedication to knowing what your goals are and working hard to get you relief. Also, i like
how he explains his different techniques and his purpose behind it. I’ve recommended Ron to many friends in the
past and continue to do so. — Gina …’‘
Ron is a true healer. With a touch, he is able to tell which areas of the body are particularly stressed and why. He
goes above and beyond to make it a truly valuable experience.” — Michelle...’,‘
Ron gave me a great whole body massage, concentrating on my shoulders and upper back, which tend to be quite
tight from all the computer work I do. He also guided me through a series of stretches to loosen up my hip joints and
lower back, since I have episodes of sciatica pain now and then. Ron has a cheerful, open personality with a good
sense of humor. — Anonymous …’‘
What I really appreciated in Ron was that he really listened to what I was saying, regarding my needs. — Anonymous

Ron was amazing at finding that spot that was the source of my discomfort. He was very attentive regarding
pressures, careful draping made me comfortable and relax. He worked with PNF stretch on me, and afterward, I felt
wonderful and could breathe more easily since my chest wasn’t so tight. Thank you! — Kaori…
I had a 90 minute massage yesterday after giving 29 hours of massage myself for the week. I will definitely be going
back to get more self care from Ron. He has great hands and I felt amazing after his massage. Thanks again! —

Perfect adjustment of pressure & just knowing what was needed — Cheryl
I really appreciated how Ron not only gave a great massage, but was giving me tips and stretching advice to do at
home to assist with my pain. — Anonymous
Ron listened to my concerns, problem areas and then did a great job finding the source of the pain, working through
the issue and educating me on steps I can take on my own to alleviate the pain.— Gini
I am currently in the recovery stage of hip surgery and Ron was able to customize our session to my limited needs.
His understanding of the human body and his excellent technique allowed me to leave with greater range of motion
and comfort, after our session. — Anonymous
Ron was recommended to me by %%%% because Ron specializes in stretching and self care. During and after the
massage Ron gave many pointers and ways to continue to stretch at home. Ron is an excellent massage therapist. If
you want someone to assist you in bringing self care methods home Ron is the person. — Cheryl
Perfect pressure. Amazing massage — Lindsay Ron was great! I had the best massage ever, I will definitely see him
again. — Laura
Ron's education and skill show through his work. He gave great pressure in areas needed and he was knowledgeable
enough to know without me telling him to be gentler in others. He communicated well and listened to everything I
asked for in my intake. I am highly impressed and cant wait for my next session with him! — Jessica
Ron can read a body very well. I appreciated that he listened to my concerns and focused on those pain areas. I also
really liked that he approached each muscle from 4 different angles - it really helped address the pain I was
experiencing. Pressure throughout the massage was perfect.— A.V.
Ron was great! He is def an expert in stretching. I came in with back pain and carpel tunnel pain and afterwards I
could immediately feel my body feeling better. I would recommend Ron 100% — Anonymous
I had the best massage of my life here with Ron! I will definitely be a returning customer. My body felt great and I was
very relaxed after my massage with Ron. Great job! — Laura
Ron has taken the massage experience to a whole new level! His study of each and every muscle and the precise and
direct intervention to the pin trigger points have been incredible. Highly recommended if you are looking for a real
Massage Therapy...I now understand why they call it “Clinic”! Keep up with the good job!. — Luca
Ron has extremely powerful hands that provide him an ability to find tense spots others can't using their elbows or
other means. Great experience and will definitely be back with Ron when he's available. — Tom
This was the by far the best massage I have ever had! When you ask for deep tissue, you are going to get it! I would
definitely recommend Ron to anyone.— Chuck
My legs and back feel amazing after you worked on me!!! 10/10 will definitely see again!! — Sean
Ron was great! He is def an expert in stretching. I came in with back pain and carpel tunnel pain and afterwards I

I am stressed and have aching muscles. I asked Ron to find all the knots and go deep! Was I sorry! It was painful but
in good pain pressure. Communicated well. He gently eases his pressure to my tolerance level. I thought Ramon was
painful but Ron is equally strong, skillful, and masters at their own rights! He was able to address my whole body in
90 mins session! Thank you, Ron! BTW, they can be gentle as well if you request them for more relaxation. My
suggestion, request REALLY deep pressure (at your tolerance level) and request the last 5-10 minutes with lighter
pressure for a relaxing massage. Kudos to %%%%! — Anonymous
Ron is professional, drove 40 miles to get his magic massage. Highly recommend. Olzhas S
Helped me understand why I have tension in my bodies and took time to teach me techniques I can do in my own to
relieve pain is stress on my muscles. — Anabel
I had a great massage from Ron. He is very knowledgeable about human anatomy and has great massage skills. I
especially liked his joint mobilization and stretching techniques. And if you like deep tissue massage, Ron is the
person to see as he can apply some SERIOUS deep pressure. — Roberto
Ron was very skilled, professional and caring. Truly made it a great relaxing experience. I would certainly recommend
him to friends and family. — Anonymous
Ron is incredible. Unlike many of the 'massages' I've gotten at other places (e.g. airports and spas) Ron really got
deep and addressed the root cause of my issues. He is happy to explain what he is addressing and was able to get to
places that I never even knew existed. I'd been working in front of a computer for 16 hours a day for the past year
and he has helped so much in alleviating back pain, I feel like my work is going to improve and my posture is much
better. Also he's a great guy and got me completely comfortable. The location is also taking great COVID precautions
so I had no worries there as well. Signed up for a subscription! — William
Ron was great!! This was my 4th full body massage in my life & Ron was the only one who really helped me relax!
Very professional, friendly & took the time to explain the cause of my pain & how I can help myself relieve it at home.
He made me feel very comfortable & I left very relaxed! Thank you again Ron! I Will be back soon! — Lidia
Ron was professional and provided a safe environment. He talked through my issues with me and listened well. He
provided feedback and advice and was understanding. — Carina
Appreciated the knowledge and professionalism. He gave me some good exercises to do afterwards, which is helpful
to help me continue to get better. — Kristin
Really knowledgeable, gives a great massage, and incorporated some stretches that I really appreciated. — Sonja
Ron was awesome! Ron knew what he was doing and would answer questions I had during the massage. When he
got to some more tense spots, he would ask if I was okay from the heavy breathing and noises I was making, which I
appreciated. Ron has magic hands and was able to really dig deep into the muscle when needed and knew to go
lighter on other body parts. He even showed me a few neck stretches to do at the very end. I would definitely choose
Ron again when I go for another. — Alex
This was my second time going and it is worth every second. I went for a 90 minute massage to relax my body from
constant heavy lifting and to loosen up tightness I knew I had. I think this experience was even better than the first
time. I will definitely come back and have already told friends and family to get a massage here too. — Anonymous
I had my first session there with Ron. He was very talented at his job. I left feeling distressed and completely relaxed.
He was able to tackle knots that had been long time residents in my muscles. I will be definitely going back again and
again. Thanks Ron you are a amazing massage therapist!!! — Kristy
I made an appointment here with Ron because I was having some lower back discomfort and tension in my
shoulders. If you work from home, or remotely, you will know the pain I’m talking about. To start off, the owner of the
clinic &&& was extremely helpful in getting the appointment set up. I was so lucky to be able to have an
appointment within a day or two of contacting them. I can see why this place is rated so highly because they are
professionals all the way. Very peaceful office, great communication, and the best massage that I have ever had. Ron
told me everything he was doing, the different muscle groups, and when to alert him if he wasn't applying enough
pressure, or if it felt like too much. He was kinda funny, too :) I will definitely be back for more! So glad I found this
place! Don’t wait! Schedule an appointment asap! — Lisa
Athletes needs good massage to recover, period. Ron made me realize the benefit and the necessity. He navigates
the body in the anatomical way. Generally and persistently. He is a personal trainer, takes the ownership and go
beyond. Sometimes, he extends the time as he feels need it without charging. I am very grateful. like the heated bed,
heated oil, scent, light and the total privacy. His attention to details makes his private studio exceed the big names.
Ron used to work for a clinic. His own studio price is very reasonable. And all the good perks included, such as
essential oil, while other places charge extra. I thank my friend who referred me here. Ron’s magic hands is top
notch! -- Xiang
I got a 60min therapeutic massage. Best massage ive ever had! Ron was amazing and knew exactly what i needed
and was very informative. I loved that the first thing he asked when i got there was where does it hurt and whats
going on. He was very responsive and replied to my messages quickly and fit me in last minute cause i was in so
much pain. Loved the studio, it was so relaxing. I will definitely be coming back for a 90min massage next time!--

Thanks for the massage. Great place and excellent specialist! I recommend for anyone.-- Mykhailo M
It will be not enough to say "Best massage I ever had" because what he is doing - gives magical results! I'm Ukrainian
and what is happening in my country keeps me all time stressed. I definitely see the difference in how my week goes
if I had a massage or if I didn't have one. Even 1 massage in a week plays huge difference! I had a chance to
compare. Weeks are different, health is different, I react to stress differently, I feel my body in a different way! I'll
say this:"if you really appreciate your body that is doing so many things for you just to exist and live life -> you have
to do sometimes a deep tissue massage. I recommend once a week. Your whole body is working for you every single
second. Answer yourself what you do for your body in answer?I had an answer for myself - >I give bad food, hate
some parts of my body, sit a lot at work, if I start work out - I do this quickly to loose weight (which is stressful way
for body) etc... A lot to add. In the end I understood that I care about my outfits more then I care about my body, but
my body is an outfit for my soul. The smallest thing I can do in this material life to show love and appreciation is
going to this massage therapist.He has strong hands - which is perfect for deep tissue. He is feeling what you need
more, personal approach, from toes to your head and face. It helps me to reduce stress, feel my body, show
appreciation, keep PEACE and LOVE inside myself even when there is war in my country, problems in relationship
and work with no days off. I was loosing myself in stress, crying and hating - it was before I started going to massage
once a week.Now it's different. Just look into my eyes, do you feel peace or hate? Eyes never lie. Before they were
empty with lost reason to live. Best massage therapist ever! I recommend Щиро дякую.-- Anhelina B.
Ron, it is the best massage therapist, he is amazing in finding your aches and pains. Leaving you with ease and relax.
If you are looking for the best, you found it. Pio
I learned about Ron from friend. It became interesting for me to try his service. After 3 months and several sessions,
I can say with confidence that this is the best investment in myself. Ron is not only a master of his craft, but also a
bright person with good energy. I really like the massage room, nice atmosphere and very clean. I highly
recommend!-- Ekaterina S
One of the best massages I’ve had. Ron is attentive and intuitive. The facility is really clean and comfortable. Highly
recommend him. If I could give him more than five stars, I would. Money well spent. I’m due for another
appointment! --Sandra
