Massage by Red Jr

Med student here visiting LA for a seminar. I’m a longtime fan of massage so I decided to treat myself to a session. Best decision I’ve made since arriving! I noticed Red Jr.’s ad and read up on his services. He definitely seemed different, offering a distinctive experience. He did not disappoint. I chose the special combo. Professional bath & body scrub, then 90 min massage. (Two hours of pure relaxation, he promised.) He lives downtown LA in this cool penthouse. Parking was ez and before I knew it he’d buzzed me in and I was on my way up the elevator to the penthouse level. I was five min early and a little nervous but Red Jr immediately put me at ease. He’s just so calming and radiates warmth. Great vibes. He asked how my day had been and if I had any trouble spots to focus on. Very friendly, he gave some backstory on his unit. Two famous people have lived there, including an important historical figure. Wow, cool! The next several hours were heaven. The ptofessionsl bathing session w pro sugar body scrub, done in steam shower, was a luxury. You get exfoliated and feel brand new. The scrub was the best I’ve ever had. Kinda like an awesome massage that removes all dead skin cells. My skin has never felt so smooth, this healthy. For the massage, this mesmerizing Native American flute music played. Just perfect. He used lavender aromatherapy to help me relax and then guided me through this conscious breath exercise that actually made a huge difference during the entire session. It kept me in a constant state of focused relaxation. His pressure proved both dynamic when appropriate and feather-light at times. He definitely got rid of several knots in my upper back and loosened the tightness in my lower back. He did some stretching on both my legs and his drum-beat finger technique was unexpectedly effective. Basically he’s tapping on specific acupressure points all over the body to recalibrate the body, mind, spirit connection, as he put it, and balance our energies. Whatever it was, it worked. I’ve never been in such a peaceful state. He was very thorough so I extended my 2-hr session by another 30 min. I'm originally from LA and get back there several times a year, and I will def be booking many future sessions with Red Jr. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Or Namaste, as he told me, giving me a hug at the end.
