I will definitely go back again, and am hoping to create a self-care routine that will include regularly scheduled visits to Alejandro. I left the session feeling rejuvenated and relaxed in equal amounts. He even massaged my abdomen, which I hadn't ever experienced before but loved.
The massage was just what I needed, and Alejandro was professional, warm, and attentive throughout. However, I knew that had I needed anything to be done differently I could have asked. There was soft music playing during the massage, and the room was just the right temperature for me. Since it was my first time, Alejandro talked to me a bit about what to expect, and reminded me to feel free to express my massage preferences at any time during our session. The space was nicely lit with nothing to jar the senses, and I immediately felt very comfortable. That was not the case in Alejandro's home. I have been to places where the massage therapist worked hard to scent the air with incense or candles, which can sometimes be overwhelming. I arrived to find a very tidy, warm, and inviting massage space. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the massage exceeded my expectations.
Because I had spoken with my friend about what to expect from the massage, I was sure I would enjoy it. I had my first massage with Alejandro this week, at the recommendation of a good friend.
