Stress Relief by Patrice

I was a bit nervous booking a massage after so many years of Covid precautions, but Patrice put me at ease. I arranged to meet him at his studio in Hollywood, which is right off the freeway.

When he opened the door, I was met with a smile and a warm greeting, and I was happy to see he matched his photos. His place was clean and organized, and the massage table was covered in a fresh sheet. Before the massage started, we took a few minutes to chat and get to know each other - this was helpful for me to feel comfortable around him before getting on the table.

I really enjoyed his combination technique which I found perfectly relaxing, satisfying and effective. I have had some experiences with other masseurs that ended up leaving me more sore than anything afterward. I was mostly quiet and zoned out a bit, but Patrice checked in with me periodically to see how I was feeling and ask about any particular areas I wanted him to address in the massage. The massage lasted the full hour, and I never felt rushed or like he was watching the clock.

Overall I was very happy with my experience with Patrice, and I will book him again. Working remotely, most of my interactions are now virtual, and so I'm happy I've found an option for those times when I want to connect with someone in person and be treated with a considerate touch.

Patrice gave me a fantastic deep tissue massage. He has amazing hands, a great personality and he really cares about your well-being. He worked wonders on my shoulders and back and I felt rejuvenated like never before. Very soothing. Very relaxing. And his table is very comfortable. I’ve already booked another session for next week! 5 stars.

Patrice gave a very fine massage that was both thorough and enjoyable. He is a delightful and kind guy who knows how to work muscles that were tense from traveling, and I felt very rejuvenated. I very much enjoyed my time with him.
