Stress Relief by Rustin

After hearing about Rustin’s bodywork from several men in our support group, I decided to book an appointment with him. The group I’m part of includes men dealing with anxiety, much of it connected to cancer diagnoses, and everyone spoke about how supportive and healing his sessions are.

I didn’t realize how much tension I was carrying until that day. The moment Rustin welcomed me, I was immediately put at ease, and I could feel the tension start to release. Once I got on the table, all my tension began to vanish.

What stood out was how everything just flowed. Nothing felt routine — it felt like the work was exactly what my body — and honestly every part of me — needed in that moment. His skill comes through in a way that feels effortless and precise.

Rustin — who also goes by Rusty — has big hands and an even bigger heart. There’s a level of care, presence, and intuitive intimacy in his work and communication that creates real trust.

I’m very grateful to be one of his regular clients now.

Rusty gave me the best massage I’ve ever had, and his skill was evident from the very beginning.

He was masterful in how he took care of me, creating an immediate sense of comfort and trust. I had been extremely stressed, but the way he welcomed me and intuitively cared for my needs was beyond anything I’ve experienced.

The massage was incredible from start to finish, and for days afterward I felt like a new man. My body feels great, but what impressed me most was how free of stress I felt, thanks to Rusty’s exceptional work and genuinely kind, positive manner.

Rusty gave me one of the best massage experiences I've ever had.

From the first text exchange, he was quick to reply and he did so with such kindness and warmth. He answered all my questions and he made me feel immediately welcome.

And when I first arrived at his really wonderful studio that is surrounded by his garden he greeted me as if we have been friends forever. He really listed to me and asked me all the right questions about what I wanted from this experience.

He checked in with me to make sure I was comfortable on every level.

The massage itself was heavenly. The way he works is with such present-mindedness. His flow technique made me feel like I was flying and floating. He found every knot and used his special touch to release them all.
It was magical.

Rusty has created an environment that feels like just the right kind of hug. The music, the lighting, the gentle scent, the warm towels, the quality of his equipment, are all perfect.

It was a 25 minute drive from the city and it is worth it. I plan on going back every week or two.

Thank you, Rusty!

Every visit to Rusty is a journey to relaxation. The unique blend of massage techniques he uses has made a lasting impact on my physical and emotional health.
