Overview
When David Bowie sang about being under pressure, he was clearly talking about a massage, right? My deep tissue massage in Midtown West / Hell’s Kitchen melts stress fast and leaves you feeling amazing. Not in NYC? I travel often—so I might be coming to your city.
As a proud member of the LGBTQIA+ community, I believe in the power of touch rooted in respect, trust, and acceptance. Regardless of your identity, orientation, background, or body type—you are

Testimonials
Gathered by Ruben from admiring massage clients to share with you.
July 17, 2025 in New York, NY (in-studio)
I just had my first massage session with Ruben … wow!
No clock-watcher he! Mellow music, great vibe, great connection.
His work was very conscientious and he kept checking in with me to make sure the pressure was just right.
His height and big hands just added to the experience. I’m a tall guy and appreciate the strength and reach of another tall man.
Time spent with Ruben is time well spent! Do your body a favor and schedule with him!
