About Me
One of LA's Top Masseurs!
I use Swedish, Esalen, & other relaxing massage techniques to gently relieve you of your stiffness. Deeper modalities like acupressure, shiatsu, & polarity may be employed depending on your tensions & touch preferences. I am formally trained & use top grade virtually unscented Biotone™ products.
I welcome gay, bi, straight, & ftm clients. I enjoy the company of all physical types. I guarantee dedicated attention & confidentiality at all times. It is my top priority to make you feel comfortable & at ease. I have many long term regular clients, some who have been with me for several years.
I am a warm, thoughtful, friendly guy over 40 with strong hands & a gentle firm touch. I am a grounded college grad with a myriad of interests including design, fitness, wellness, food, travel, politics, & finance. I believe in the art of living & prioritize a happy low stress lifestyle. I’m 6ft, 175 lbs w/ great upper & lower proportions. I work out 6 days a week & am a lifelong non drinker. While many younger masseurs will make you feel like you just wasted a million dollars, you will leave my session feeling LIKE a million dollars!

I was recently in LA, and booked a 90 minute massage with Bill. The communication was easy and he's very responsive. When I arrived to his location, he greeted me very warmly and we chatted a bit about the massage. Bill's massage technique is incredible and he blends soft and strong touch in his warm and relaxing strokes. He has big hands and easily covered all of my body. I left feeling refreshed and renewed. I will definitely book again, soon. Bill is also a great conversationalist but also knew when we needed quiet moments.
Scheduling a session with Bill was very easy and he provided great directions! There was easy parking and walking into his clean studio, I felt already at ease with his professionalism.
I never got a massage on a heating pad, but it was lovely! His strokes were the perfect pressure and he was a great conversationalist :) Loved the whole vibe and experience and the way he worked the pain on my neck and shoulders kept me smiling the next day. Definitely will be coming back!
Bill made me feel welcome right away. The massage table was heated and the music was perfect and from the first moment he put his hands on my body I knew there was something special about him.
He intuitively knew how much pressure to use and how long to stay on each part of my body. My neck and shoulders and arms and hands (where I keep most of my tension) seemed to unlock and relax.
A couple of time I actually felt on the verge of tears as he worked my knotted muscles - the personal level of understanding he had of my body brought an emotional release, that kind that comes from being taken care of in such a meaningful way.
I'm an older man; I've had hundreds of massages in my life. But Bill is something special - he has a great smile, a beautiful spirit and the natural understanding of a born caregiver. He is one of a kind. I can't wait to go back for another visit.

- If you are only doing it for the money, do something else. You really need to care about people.
- I have been a masseur for quite a number of years and would like to remain a masseur for quite a number more.
- Most of my sessions are conducted in my extremely comfortable and quiet studio although I am happy to come to your nearby home or hotel outside of rush hours (surcharge will apply). In a general sense, I have travelled to several continents, am open to people of different cultures and backgrounds, and lived a very exciting 5 year period of my life overseas.

The Uncomfortable Truth For Many Guys
Not every masseur is going to graciously receive an older, overweight, handicapped, or unremarkable client.
Some will make the appearance of doing so yet will be watching the time with 30-50% of the attention they should be focusing on that client. So many masseurs serving gay bi and questioning men make the appearance of caring about others. Though at a closer glance, one can't help but notice that they are way more polite than they are genuinely nice or compassionate.
In the most extreme cases, if a client even so much as attempts to gently push any boundaries, a sniping, nasty, or even unhinged reaction may result.
Nobody wants to be callously rushed through their massage session by an egomaniacal inexperienced or insecure masseur who may even be seething with contempt for them through the entire session.
Men who are not fashion models, rodeo cowboys, or porn stars deserve the same care, consideration, and quality as everyone else but don't often receive it.
I suggest having a short phone call with the practitioner to spell out how they approach their session in advance of booking an appointment.
ALWAYS go to someone who will appreciate and value you and your business!
Disciplined Goal Oriented Guys Also Need A Break
I’m probably a lot more interested in why you don’t get a massage more often than you might think. I am not only in the bodywork business because I have exceptional massage skills and a fit physical constitution. I also have a keen interest in other people, other peoples values, and the way other people approach personal growth and success. Hard-working tightly focused people need and deserve to be pampered. It doesn’t matter to me whether you’re finishing up medical school, working overtime to buy your first truck for your plumbing business, or transitioning out a long-term corporate job architecting your next move. You need a break! Please know that I am interested in your journey, I’m happy to have you be a part of mine, and may even hold a pearl or two of unconventional wisdom. And of course you will rise off my table feeling happier, more relaxed, and more vital than when you layed down on it.
Why Time With Me Is Time Better Spent
Most masseurs are one-trick ponies. Sure they are hot but what added value do they bring to your massage session? What exactly are you taking away from the encounter you just had?
In addition to being a compassionate man with an incisive mind, I spent decades informally studying how to increase vitality, safeguard health, and prolong good quality and joyful life. In addition to being a great masseur, I am also a wellness chef. Any physical or constitutional problem you might be experiencing has many remedies and methods of address. I know a surprising volume of these and am happy to share information with you.
When you make the choice to come to me, you are not just getting a thorough and thoughtful massage by a fit friendly guy, great company and companionship with a man who really cares about you, your health, and your humanity; but you may also potentially recieve incalculably useful and maybe arcane information about how to successfully manage your unique issues and constitution.
Some of us are just hot which is just fine. Others of us are a lot more than you might expect.
