Do not hold Jake's sojourn into porn against him. He is without a doubt one of the best therapeutic masseurs around anywhere. The fact that he may have escorted and is still way sexy does not detract from his being a gifted clinician. I've overheard him refer to massage as his calling. That may sound overblown and corny until you're on his table being "manipulated" by him.

I can highly recommend "Chris: Certified and Super Hung" currently in SF until September 27. He is on massagem4m.com in New York City. I have had massage from him three times when I have had trips to NYC and his massage is very legitimate, unless you want more. He used to go by a reference to "Yogaholic" as he is an advanced practicioner and teacher of yoga in addition to being an outstanding masseur. If I live in NYC, I would be seeing him once a week, as he is that good. I have a lot of problem areas in my back and shoulders and he always gets the kinks and knots out. He has a beautiful, spotlessly clean small studio with shower before and after if you like. Check him out and more important give him a try. He is the best massage I have had in NYC, and I have tried a lot of different guys.

160$ for a "non sexual, just legit" massage?....

 

The internet has spawned a leveling of massage pricing. It seems that many believe they should charge the $150 and up prices attached to a sensual massage whether or not that service is actually offered. I remember when you could discuss the sensual option and the therapeutic pricing was well below $100. Aren't regular therapeutic massages in spas still in those lower ranges? I used to interpret the higher pricing as an unspoken suggestion that the massage wasn't necessarily all therapeutic, but that's changed in the years.

I charged 75.00 for an hour and included the release if they asked. Have a certification and state license. I tried to keep my prices slightly below what the local spa's charged. One of the problems is the market is flooded with people who lost their jobs and think they can make easy money giving massages with absolutely no training what so ever. If noticed in most cases those with no training charge more than those with, And as long as people keep hiring those people it will continue to drive the prices up. Everyone wants lower prices? Then stop hiring those people with no certification and no license they will then be forced out of business and those who earned their way in this business will no longer have that trash as competition will lower their prices..
