What a kindhearted dude and what about that big red beard! Of course his real power is in his skilled hands — they’re magic! Red traveled to my Long Beach home for the session. He arrived about five min early, which I appreciated. With LA traffic you never know. The 90 min hot-oil massage was pure heaven, he got rid of all my stresses and he’s very gifted at melting knots away! The acupressure on my scalp and nape and shoulders almost seemed to reset my mood to relax-only mode. He used deep pressure and a lighter touch where needed, felt like a sports-level massage. His stretching techniques did the job but were not painful like some can be. He had me breathing very slowly and deeply as he stretched my legs and other muscle groups. Just perfect. His lavender sea salt therapeutic bath was amazing too. Immersed in premium organic ingredients, various healing salts, essential oils, medical-grade Manuka honey, all working together to bring peace to my body and mind. He guided me through simple yet effective meditative breathing techniques and soon I was in a state of pure bliss in the water. Will def book again soon! 😀

One of the best massages in LA, definitely a new experience for me and I really enjoyed every last minute of it. Red was authentically polite, professional, and had the utmost soothing space I’ve ever been too. I walked away feeling like I was floating in the clouds. Very personable guy and will for sure return again. Wow!

I do a lot of weight training and need regular deep tissue massages. A friend recommended Red’s bodywork several times before I finally booked. Not only does he travel to Orange County for sessions, not only is he punctual, I also received the best massage of my life. No kidding. Hooked.

Dec. 12, 2022 in Los Angeles, CA (in-studio)

Consistently wonderful massage techniques. A true warm and expansive soul. Next level studio and amenities. I could write a book about this man’s gifts. Oh and that beautiful beard! There’s a reason I’ve been booking Red for over two years now. His work is transcendent.

My go-to Bro for all things zen … me and my girlfriend were invited to a private massage event on a yacht, where we first experienced Red’s excellence. His touch and the ocean waves soon immersed us in total relaxation. Since then, I’ve booked Red for two solo sessions. He came to my home each time. Very punctual and a real pro. He also knows a lot about meditation and metaphysical concepts like chakras … enjoy his energy work too, always learn something new.

The deluxe spa/massage session is the way to go. He doesn’t rush the process. Three hours of total pampering! Red arrived on time at my home for our appointment. He is kindhearted, genuine and professional. Superb custom made bath potion (sea salt lavender mix proved extraordinarily) followed by expert techniques for massage. Glorious experience … gorgeous smile too!

March 02, 2022 in Los Angeles, CA (in-studio)

Red is a veritable master of his craft. I opted for the addition of some spa treatments and I was absolutely taken by the relaxation and effectiveness of the treatments. In addition to that, his massage technique is superb and his attention to detail regarding product choice and ambience are truly top tier. I cannot overstate how worthwhile Red's services are. You will leave feeling like you're being transported on your personal cloud. Highly recommended!

ALWAYS BET ON RED! My wife and I have booked double massages with Red Jr for several years now. A buddy highly recommended him. We fly Red into Vegas every few months to enjoy his spa/massage weekend deluxe package. The entire weekend feels like heaven. My wife adores his custom facial scrubs and bath potions, I’m a big fan of the lavender mist honey treatment and scalp massage he performs in our home sauna. We both are huge fans of his massage as well. He’s got that wow factor. Perfect pressure. Superb techniques. We are in expert hands under his touch. We also participate in a guided meditation session together as part of the weekend experience. Beautiful mantras too. Thank you for each of your talents, Red. You are a true gift!

Amazing touch. Custom pressure. Awesome smile. Cool products too, from his essential oil collection to the best massage lotions/oils and brand new everything … Recently renovated studio, super comfortable table, plush linens, Turkish towels. Red’s deluxe wet/dry session was close to 3 hrs and felt like spending an afternoon at an upscale spa with a master healer guiding me through each step of an incredible journey. Must experience this again. Soon!

His training, experience and good vibes shine through in each session. He has an unexplainable knack for hitting all the right spots. He also has amazing guided meditation interludes, which he incorporates into each massage. I’ve booked four times so far and plan to enjoy many more. Not sure what I can add that hasn’t been said in all the glowing reviews on his ad. I’m very, very grateful for Red.

Who hosts amazing unrushed and unhurried sessions....a blend of East/West...total mind/body/spirit immersion and you actually receive ALL the time you paid for? Red — that’s who!!! I’m the dude who never writes reviews yet had to this time. He’s just that good. I booked the honey scrub and deep bodywork. He promised about 3 hours of pampering and relaxation. That’s what I got. Plus he threw in a free frankincense oil foot soak. From guiding me through meditative breathing to his massage styles...he’s trained and knows what he’s doing. His studio and spa areas are very clean and filled with zen imagery and wonderful scents like lavender oils and intoxicating candles everywhere. Sign me up. Again! Because I’ve already scheduled my next session.

Dec. 02, 2020 in Los Angeles, CA (in-studio)

Serenity. Relaxation. Bliss. That’s the mantra Red had me recite during the meditative portion. And that’s exactly what I experienced for two-and-a-half hours. Like stepping into another realm after he invited me inside ZenCasa — what he calls his warm and welcoming space. Just so chill. He’s clearly received advanced training in massage and his custom spa treatments rival anything I’ve booked before. Organic facials, body scrubs and therapeutic bath potions. His menu of spa and massage options is unique...going above and beyond. Next level!

FIVE STARS! Super intuitive, almost preternatural method to his bodywork. He uses mantras, guided meditation, special breathing instructions, aromatherapy, elbows, palms, fingertips, knuckles. His table with thick thick thick cushion is brand new and I can tell he spent some serious money on it. The face cradle was also pure memory foam, ergonomically shaped and the most comfortable ever. I usually don’t like face cradles and rarely use them. The linens and blankets were soft and luxurious. Really enjoyed the fractionated coconut oil too, and other essential oils, felt perfect and soothing on my skin. His space is meticulously clean, the Native American flute music and flickering candles hypnotic. Walked on air back to my car. I’ll book at least twice monthly from now on.

The perfect blend of Sensation and Serenity. Had my fourth massage with Red Jr. Each time I walk into his space, I am greeted with peaceful vibes. Clean studio. Powerful hands and elbows. Kind spirit. Really amazing spa options and his body scrubs and bath potions are custom made. Creative approach to healing. There’s no one else quite like him. Incredible!!

MIND-BENDING & HEALING. I cannot express how amazing my session with Red was. A week later, I remain grateful. His welcoming energy, effortless smile and kind words immediately set the mood. He exudes warmth in every possible way. Glowing candles, mesmerizing music and the calming scent of essential oils enhance his clean, impressive space. After enjoying tea with lemon and fresh mint, I was on the table and under his expert hands. Initial breathing and stretching exercises preceded the mystical song of the Tibetan singing bowl and then Red began the blissful facial and scalp massage. Like magic he dissolved painful knots down my shoulders and back. Every worry and concern melted away. Just the perfect amount of pressure, plus acupressure techniques, chakra rejuvenation and I must mention the foot massage as well. Incredible! I would pay just for the work he does on feet. Red also uses heated organic coconut oil that sent the experience to next level. Why don’t all masseurs use coconut oil? I now apply it after morning showers and my skin feels nourished all day long. Recently I received a promotion, relocating from Madrid to Beverly Hills. I love my job but it’s long hours, extensive international travel...stressful. Finding a regular masseur in LA was top on my list. Very glad I connected with an experienced, gifted massage therapist anointed with intuitive touch, trained in truly therapeutic methods and blessed with the most exquisite beard on Earth! I will book twice monthly and next time plan to schedule a spa treatment too. Probably the soft water, sea salt bath. Can’t wait! Muchas gracias Red!!!

Awesome energy. Enjoyed an incredible body scrub with ingredients like Manuka and lavender and this special organic cinnamon & sugar. My skin glowed after. Amazing massage on pro table with warmed coconut oil (Red said it’s gold standard for skin), fresh blankets & towels. Mix of Swedish and deep work. Acupressure on scalp felt like heaven. He then followed up with me the next day, thanking me and asking how I felt and offered me some easy meditation tips and skincare regimen. I will definitely book again. Thank you Red!

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.
