Pampering Massage by Joseph

I booked Joey's massage when I saw him visiting Illinois. This I will say. I feel very lucky that I got a spot from his schedule, because I can now corroborate the other reviews left here. He has a cordial, boy-next-door demeanor equipped with very talented hands. He knows actual massage!!! Perfect firm pressure, just like how I like my massages to be. I left very satisfied customer. Come back soon and let me know. Signed, Jared

Hey Joey. You know what made me write this review? After seeing someone else last night while I was out of town, it’s the realization that you never did any of the things that I hate during my massages. Your focus was always on me. I always felt taken care of and your place is always clean. Unlike last night’s guy and a few others I have seen, not once did you touch your phone to respond to texts during the session. I really hate that from the other masseuse. They would touch my body, I’m facing down, with their random strokes, trying to hide the fact that they were texting. Worst part is there are quite a number out there who do this for more than half the time of the massage. When I pay for massages, I expect the complete attention. Anyone who does otherwise is not only ill-mannered, but I already know they are in it just for the money. Joey, I appreciate that whenever I visit you, your attention is with me and my body, my bothersome knots, and the built up tension.

To the fellow gentlemen reading my review, with the three times I have already visited Joey, he never used his phone, he never cut my session short, he never asked for an upsell. And he always delivered a really skilled massage. If you like a masseur who is not only a master of his craft but someone who is respectful of your time, Joey is without a doubt the one!

i’m only in town for a travel and found joseph’s ad, it showed no photo at the time but i reached out nonetheless. his communication was detailed and pro so i went to try, i honestly was having second thoughts reaching out because i like going to spas for my massages, i have never went for a solo or private massage. im so happy i went. i would suggest anyone to go give this nice fella a visit if you need some pampering. his magic hands will melt all tight muscles and all your stress away. bonus is you get the massage from a cute guy with an equally charming demeanor. massage skills are spa-like quality, maybe even better because it’s not a public setting.

ONE HUNDRED PERCENT I RECOMMEND! I’m glad I trusted Joey for my massage. We started with what he called a “dry touch.” Without oil, just his hands gliding and feeling some parts of my body first, assessing my problem areas. He then proceeded with applying massage lotion, with his palms and fingers like warm butter, so soft but with a really solid grip. I could swear I’ve never had a masseur with a touch so ethereal like this fine dude. Like, how??! The technique was pleasurable and unexplainable. He also went strong and deep where necessary. It was a full 90-minute CLOUD NINE experience. I wasn’t going to write a review because I like to keep gems like Joey to myself, but his skills deserve a high level of praise and recognition!!! Take care Joey. Hope our Vegas schedules meet again.

Maybe it was destiny that made it happen, but I believe I just received the best Christmas gift this year.

I am only visiting town for work and flights to WA got cancelled. So instead of focusing on the negative, spending Christmas eve on my own, I thought to at least treat myself to something nice. Getting a massage was my top choice. I reached out to Joey if he could do a 2-hour session on Christmas eve. He responded yes, and I immediately set an appointment.

Fast forward to today, Dec 25th. I am sitting in the LAX departure area writing this review because I keep on catching myself still thinking about yesterday’s fantastic session, his friendly personality, his expert massage, his warm hands melting all of my muscles and releasing all tension. The reviews on him, I can attest, are true. Joey completely turned around my lonely Christmas eve. I call the flight cancellation a destiny!

I’ll keep this short. If you’re tired of massuers who rush their sessions … if you’re tired of those who merely rub oil on you with little to no technique on their massages … if you’re tired of those who skip some parts of your body, cutting your session short … then book Joseph instead! My time with him was not rushed. It felt like he truly cared for my body and sore muscles, thoroughly and meticulously all of me, physically and mentally. He’s a really skilled massage therapist, providing a transcendent experience.

I was not asked to write this. It’s the wonderful experience that compelled me to give Joey a 5 stars review. Perfect pressure and firm touch, spotless set up, and a handsome dude with warm friendly personality. No doubt the best massage I have received in a very long time.

I never realized the importance of getting massages until my wife booked us a massage when we visited a spa in Sacramento while on vacation. I enjoyed every minute of that massage, being relaxed and pampered. So ever since we got back home, I made it a point to get massages regularly on my own. I then tried some local spas in the valley but the massages weren’t as great as the one I first got in Sacramento. Until I searched online and found Joey’s ad. It showed he was local to me and his description about confidentiality put me at ease. I made an appointment for the next day.

Joey knows how to read a body. I strained muscles in my underarms so I specifically requested that he spend a little more time in the area. The other therapists I first saw got taken aback with such request. But Joey was a true professional and he listened. He worked on massaging my deltoids and armpits with no hesitation. And so my arms had much better motion after my session with him! This talented dude is a worthwhile investment for his wonder-worker hands.

In the many years that I have received massages, I learned to categorize massage therapists to a simple “repeat” and “do not repeat.” And I found I had more men in my Do Not Repeat category, which made me stop looking for new masseurs to keep myself from getting disappointed. However, isn’t it wonderful that even if the world is unkind to new talent, once in a while you decide to open your doors again, and you come across someone who shatters a hostile notion?

Last night, I experienced something fresh: An extraordinary massage from a singularly humble fella who was visiting Phoenix. I gave up hiring other masseurs but to say that I was glad I searched again and stumbled upon Joey’s ad is a gross understatement. This charming gentleman has rocked me to my core with his smooth hands and masterful massage style. With his seamless flow and dynamic pressure, I felt years of stress were taken away from me. His visit to town was a gift and welcome progress to how I used to flagrantly view masseurs.

As someone who has experienced more do-not-repeats than repeats, I now realize that while not everyone can become a great masseur, a great masseur can come from anywhere. Joey is way beyond my massage categories. I wish for him to come back.

My family recently moved to Santa Clarita, and I hired Joey last night. The massage I got was A+. He focused on areas that I asked for extra attention, especially my neck and feet that not a lot of masseurs even dare touch. He was kind, skilled, not to mention a cute guy too. Communication was easy and thorough. His studio was immaculate, like a spa. I’m glad that I have a local masseur now. I will be a repeat customer. Thank you.

I am writing this review because I just had a massage from another therapist but all I could think about was Joey’s undeniably better massage. The other masseur’s technique was way off. And i found myself talking in my mind quite a number of times during that session, “Joey would have done it differently,” or “If this were Joey, he would instead-,” and “Joey would not have hurt massaging my leg like this.”

I regret trying someone else. Joey’s the real deal. He gives a relaxing and totally satisfying massage experience. Joey I hope this review finds you well and I will see you again very soon.

I will admit that I have seen a number of therapists out there, but it’s Joey’s attention to detail and soothing hands that make me his loyal customer. He makes me forget my physical and emotional stress all the time! If you’re like me out here looking for a totally satisfying service, I recommend you try his massage.

I went to his place and was greeted by a friendly smile. Joey’s space was clean and relaxing. We started with him asking me a few questions and he had me do some movement tests too. That’s when I knew I was with an expert. The massage felt great and I left still thinking about his style and technique. He knew the right spots to touch. I also like that he gave me the full 90 minutes of massage. It wasn’t rushed but time went by so fast that I will be returning very soon. Thank you.
