Riktr Deep Tissue Massage

A friend of mine recommended Nicola. I’m an athlete and I need weekly massages. Nicola is the best MT I have ever been too. Don’t even bother with anybody else. His deep tissue techniques really helped my sore muscles. He can massage your muscles softly or get in deep and hit those trigger points, ouch. Anyway I would highly recommend him if you are looking for someone with very strong hands and great therapeutic massage techniques. He also is a very interesting person. A +

I called Chris after waking up to find that I could not move one morning! My upper back had completely locked, pinching a nerve, and I needed help fast. As an athlete, I rely on therapeutic massage to overcome injury and stay healthy, and know that proper therapeutic massage is hard to come by. Chris was excellent in every regard. He was professional, courteous, thoughtful, and had good energy. He arrived with everything he needed, and took the time to understand what was wrong before he got to work. Please note that this review covers an intense, therapeutic session. I told Chris not to hold back as I needed serious help to unlock my back, and he really worked hard. This is no fru-fru spa experience- Chris bent, stretched, and dug his way through layers of frozen muscles and at times brought me close to tears. But the results were incredible- he really got things loosened up, and by the next day I was back to about 80% mobility and able to compete again. I STRONGLY recommend Chris, but again caveat that this massage is not for the weak of heart. Chris is a gifted healer, and you need to trust him and let him work his magic. I will certainly use him again (although I hope under less dire circumstance!). His results are great, he is fairly priced, and he is a pleasure to work with.
