Testimonials

Gathered by Martin from admiring massage clients to share with you.

July 15, 2024 in Oakland, CA (in-studio)

If you want a real massage that’s thorough, professional and enlivens every muscle in your body, Martin is the man. As a sturdy, athletic guy he has strong hands and intuitively knows how to use them. He can detect where your problem areas are and how to address them and he uses some amazing stretches that push you a bit, but never too much.

Since I’m an older man who’s starting to stiffen up with age, I count on Martin to get me loosened up and working again. He has become an important part of my personal health journey.

Martín is great. Have had many massage over the years by him. I love getting massage and had quite a few on my life and he’s definitely one of the best. His technique is awesome. And he’s a great guy. Always friendly and great to talk to. You can’t go wrong with Martin.

I have found Martin to be the best & professional massage therapist here in Bay Area. Had 90min sessions that was very satisfying. He’s a really nice therapist. Highly recommend. Looking forward to see him again. Thank you for your best service … ..

I’ve been going to Martin for the past few years approximately once every few months and can say he is honestly one of the best massages that I have had. He can be very firm if you want but also gentle and will listen to you and your body. I am an athlete and have sore muscles and knots often, and going to Martin really allows me to continue to be active everyday. I always feel amazing after a session. I highly recommend going to get a massage from Martin! He’s very kind and has great taste in music too! 10/10

I have been getting massages from Martin for over a year now and he never disappoints. His is a strong and well scripted massage that he administers with confidence and mastery. His touch is precise and targeted to relieve problem-prone areas. He particularly excels in stretches that untie, repair, and nurture at the same time. I trust this strong man who is also caring and attentive to my body’s aches and pains. I have recently moved away from the area and so cannot see Martin as often as I used to but I always make sure to check on his schedule before booking a trip to the Bay Area!

I’ve been getting massage from Martin for over 7 months now. He gives me hard pressure/deep tissue in the areas where I like it and he eases back on those spots where I don’t. I also love the stretches Martin uses – he is a big guy and is able to do some very effective full body stretches that other massage therapists can’t do. I’m very happy I found Martin and I keep coming back for more.

My massage from Martin was Incredible. Having an unreal week of stress, I needed a really good massage. This was my first session with Martin & it was awesome. His technique is strong, focused & left me feeling completely renewed. Martin is a caring massage practitioner whose ability to care for you & work all the stress out of your muscles makes him excellent at his craft.

Martin was able to see me on short notice. I am new to the area and have been looking for a massage therapist for quite a while. I was impressed with how clean, professional, and personable Martin was. The massage was thorough, and thoughtful. He was able to identify my trouble areas and applied appropriate pressure. He worked me through several stretches which proved to be very helpful.

Martin's magic hands worked wonders on me. Since I found him I haven't been to another masseur, there's been no need. Each time I think I just gotten the best massage of my life, I go back and find the next one is even better. I would highly recommend Martin!

"I've been receiving massages from Martin for many years -- both incall and outcall. I travel to Oakland often and I try to schedule with him at least once a month. He has gotten to know my body and the areas that usually need special attention. I'm always left feeling relaxed and invigorated and looking forward to the next appointment. Personally, he's a really nice guy, very considerate and flexible making appointments around my schedule."

I been seeing Martin over the last 2-3 years. His massage technique is excellent. But what makes his massage exceptional is the fact that he is completely authentically present. And as much as my body likes the massage, the caring he brings to the massage table make the sessions nurturing as well.

July 10, 2019 in Oakland, CA (in-studio)

Martin has been my masseur for over a year. He is professional, extremely aware of the body and how to intuitively find areas that are issues. I feel lucky to have met him, and I refer my friends. I highly recommend his massage.

I was exhausted from the trip from Atlanta and Martin's got me in on my first day here and his massage completely removed all the travel stress and exhaustion I was feeling. I will definitely be seeing him as much as possible. What a great massage therapist!!! Thank you Martin

Martin is amazing. His technique is sound, pure, and incrediblely therapeutic bodywork. He quickly accessed my tight spots and proceed to take care of it in a way that you expect when you need a skilled therapist. Martin is my "go to" therapist whenever I'm in Oakland for top notch massage work,
