| - After REALLY overdoing it in the gym yesterday, I knew that if I didn't get myself to an RMT during lunch today I would be crying. SO... I looked for places downtown and found this place with excellent reviews.
My RMT, Alexey Karmanov was great. He took my appointment very last minute, just 45 minutes beforehand. Now, I have another RMT who I am VERY loyal to and who has given me the best massages for the past 5 years and have only strayed in emergency situations such as today. Anywho, the understanding I had (requested) was that I was going to leave in pain. I wanted my tense muscles REALLY worked. I'll take sore muscles over tense muscles any day. And boy, did Alexey deliver. And not in a bad way. He was very attentive, asked frequently how the pressure was feeling, and even gave me a heads up before a really painful segment was about to begin. He warmed up the sore area with a heating pad before we began and *get this... incorporated TIGER BALM into the treatment. Amazing, amazing, amazing. He ended off with a few minutes of more relaxing neck massage and then, after I was dressed showed me some stretching techniques. For the skill level and service given, the price is fantastic. Second best massage I have ever received. I will go back for my emergency "help, I can't move my ..." moments. And I will refer Alexey to friends and family, especially those who like deep tissue.
