Brian - Superior experience"I have been going to a massage therapist for many years and thought he was very good, but my first massage with Ryan was by far better. Fantastic soothing techniques, great deep-tissue work and a relaxing environment. All-in-all a superior experience. I will be back!"
|
Paul - AWESOME!"AWESOME! that is the only word to describe Ryan's massages. I have been to many different massage therapists in the past, but Ryan is by far the best. His mix of light touch and deep tissue massage is a combination that I has never never been used so well. At the end of each and every massage with Ryan, I have always felt completely relaxed and amazing. I will recommend him without reservation!"
|
Jason - Happy Birthday to Me!"I decided to go to Ryan as a birthday present to myself. I was truly impressed with his touch and his ability to really get to my tension points. The massage was a sensual, relaxing, and completely phenomenal session. I highly recommend him and look forward to regular massages with him in the future."

Mike - Exceptional massage experience"Ryan delivers an exceptional massage experience that will exceed your
expectations. He is a trained professional that has the benefit of intuitive skills (and hands!) that will not only relax you but correct any soreness or deep tissue aches and pains. I plan on making repeat visits on a regular basis. You should too!" |
Brian - Perfect pressure"I can definitely recommend a massage with Ryan. He has great technique, the perfect amount of pressure and a very comfortable studio. My shoulders and back had been particularly sore. I left feeling so much better. Thank you again for a wonderful massage. I will be back!"

Jim - Nothing compares..."I am a businessman who travels frequently across the country. Back in 2006 I ran across Ryan and his massage services. I was hooked after the first massage, and I make sure to reserve my session each and every time I am in town. To this day, even after all the other massage therapists in all the cities I have visited, he is the best masseur I know and he beats them all - HANDS DOWN! [pun intended =)]. His massage technique and personality are simply above and beyond! I often wish I were back in Minneapolis with Ryan's massages as I am sitting in some of the nicest Spas and Salons across the country. Nothing compares to Ryan's services, not even the 'ritzy' places.
Insider hints: The new scheduling service is amazing. Make sure you get your session requests in early! Ryan understands the needs of his clients and tries to accomodate whenever possible - once in awhile you can get a last minute session, however this can sometimes be difficult due to the scheduling process, client load, and his generous availability of 12 hours a day, 7 days a week. Schedule early, be respectful, and keep your hands to yourself during the massage... (He's doing the massage, not you.)... do this, and you will enjoy your massage, I promise! Overall, Ryan's massage and technique will leave you feeling relieved after a stressfull day, rejuvenated and ready to focus on the upcoming day, or just help you relax somewhere in between. Enjoy your massage!" |
Alex - Exactly what I needed!"I have been friends with Ryan for a couple years now but have not had the chance to experience his talents until a few days ago. His strong hands and gentle techniques put me into a trance and let me escape the rigors of my everyday life. Even though I received a 90 minute massage, it felt like I was gone for an eternity. I had no cares or worries during the massage session and his touch and techniques were just amazing...EXACTLY what I needed! Thank you Ryan for being awesome!"
Anonymous Rocker - Help!"I am a front-man for a well-known band in the Minneapolis area and while on stage and through the course of hard workouts, I somehow injured my shoulder. I thought that I could work through it, but the pain kept me up all night and it was so bad that I was in tears. I called Ryan at 2AM pleading for his help. He arrived to my house with his table and gave me a full 2 hour massage while working on my shoulder and back. After another 2 1/2 hour session, I was back to feeling somewhat normal and could go back to rockin' out my music. Ryan is amazing and truly dedicated to his work and his clients. I thought my shoulder was completely messed up, but somehow he performed a miracle and made it so I could sleep again at night. He is such an amazing person."

Andrew - Talented hands"I have recently had some semi-major surgeries performed. After discussing massage techniques with both my doctors and Ryan, we decided that massage is exactly what I needed. Not only has the massage relaxed my whole body, but it has also increased the blood flow to the healing areas, thus resulting in faster healing times and reduced scar tissues. After a recent visit to my doctor, he was surprised at the progress I am making and the shortened timeframe of healing. I give credit to Ryan and his talented hands. Thanks Ryan!"
|
Mike - Consummate professional"If you have lower back pain - whether chronic or even if you overworked yourself being a weekend warrior ... definitely book some time with Ryan. He is a consummate professional and is highly skilled at massage therapy and will definitely take care of you! You will leave feeling a LOT better then when you arrived ... I definitely did. :) "
|
Jason - Thoroughly relaxed"I've had massages from Ryan in the past, but instead of 90 minutes, I stretched it out to a full two hours since I was coming off of a REALLY stressful month and my upper back and neck were a mess. He did an incredible job working on my legs and releasing the tension all along my backside including some good deep work on the glutes and along the spine. When I flipped over, he did a very VERY good job of making sure the front side of me was relaxed as well and spent the time I needed relaxing my neck, pecs, stomach, and legs. The ambiance is great, his mix of techniques is well chosen, and the whole experience is one that I plan on repeating as regularly as I can."

Brad - Highly recommend"Another outstanding two hour session! Ryan's gentle strokes and light touch is so relaxing. I plan to be a repeat customer and highly recommend you become one too!"
Rob - Serenity"Ryan - your massage was just what I needed and more than I expected - relaxing, yet invigorating. The session simply let me drift into serenity and it touched my soul. Thank you. "
|
Paul - Great"After a car accident a few weeks ago, and a long trip in from Amman, Jordan, I was definitely ready for a 90 minute massage. Ryan's massage was great, and I really liked the mixed pressures and style of massage. I will definitely be back again."
|
Scott - Amazing"Ryan was amazing. His technique was therapeutic and relaxing. It seemed very well organized firm then gentle it was a great mix - he seemed to care about what he was doing. He was organized, polite, confident and very good at his work. I regret I may never return to Minneapolis!"
|
Chris - Seamless"Excellent work, you are a very talented Massage Therapist. Thank you again, I feel so good! I really like how you get to know someone for a few minutes, it really takes the edge off. Your techniques of integrating soft touch, kneading to being more aggressive were seamless. I might just have to travel here more often just to see you!"
|
Josh - Impressed"First time with Ryan and I was definitely impressed. The atmosphere was comfortable and relaxing. Ryan's techniques are impressive and allowed me to relax...which is not easy for me to do. Ryan did a great job of working on my problem areas with just the right amount of pressure. I would definitely recommend Ryan to anyone."
|
Randy - Ryan KNOWS his work"I didn't inform Ryan that I'd recently begun running, but he sensed it as he worked my calves. I hadn't realized how tight they were, but it was obvious as Ryan concentrated on them that he knew. When he was done, my calves were completely free of tension. He once again gave me the ultimate massage! You won't be disappointed."
|
Chris - Worth every dollar"This was the first time I've used Ryan, and I've had a few massages in my travels. It was a nice change having someone interested in your daily life and your needs to feel replenished. I can honestly say that the techniques he uses are some of the best I've experienced, and he is very talented with his hands. He will be hearing from me when I travel back to Minneapolis. I chose an hour, and now regret it wasn't 2 hours. Thank you, Ryan!"
|
Paul - Awesome as always"I have been going to Ryan for almost a year now, and he never fails! The combination of light touch, muscle kneading, long slower work, and deep tissue work is always perfect."
|
James - Incredible!"From the very moment I stepped in the door, Ryan made me feel welcome and comfortable. He took the time to ask me questions about my daily routine to focus on my trouble areas, though I am confident he would have found them without that information. He is also very sensitive to your level of comfort and explains the whole process before it begins. I would recommend Ryan to anyone as this was one of the best experiences I have ever had!"
|
Jim - Warm and friendly guy"I just had my first massage with Ryan, and will definitely be back. From the moment he opened the door, I could tell he is a warm and friendly guy. He made me feel completely welcome, and the massage was wonderful: strong, confident, and I felt physically re-aligned and stress free. Ryan has that rare combination- he has obviously worked hard to become very skilled at what he does, but at the same time he seems completely effortless and intuitive. Top notch!"
|
Nick - Nothing to be nervous about!"I have been to many other places for a massage, including resorts and spas. Ryan is by far the best person I have had give me a massage ever! He came to my hotel room in Tucson after my conference. There was nothing to be nervous about at all. We talked and got to know each other. Its the most comfortable I have ever felt getting a massage. Thanks Ryan for the great experience!"

TJ - CMT in Edina"Just had my first appointment with Ryan and it was a great session. I am a professionally Certified Massage Therapist myself and work with independent therapists to see what else is out there and to expand my professional networking base. Ryan treats you in a professional and friendly fashion. I often times find myself spending more time concentrating on what the therapists strokes and their massage skill rather than relaxing. Ryan made me relax in just a couple of minutes because after that short of time I could tell I could trust his skills (he is a professional and can back it up with professional skill when working on you). Out of the many Massage Therapists I have worked with in the area he is very, very, high on my list. Please consider this a professional endorsement from a independent source."

Randy - truly amazing!"A truly amazing massage! It had just the right amount of everything one needs, plus some added stretching that I had requested. At the end, I was just limp on the outside, but invigorated on the inside after this 2 hours of magnificence. I get massages all over the country as I travel a lot for work, and this massage ranked right at the top. I have never had a better massage than those I've received from Ryan. He knows his muscles and ligatures inside and out. He tunes into your body's needs and the final outcome is complete and utter relaxation. Afterwards, I feel like I'm walking in the clouds. Ryan is such a professional and peaceful human being. I'll be back for sure!!!"

Marc - CMT in Minneapolis"I'm a Massage Therapist in Minneapolis, and I try to get a massage once a month. I've been searching for a Massage Therapist who combines a professional sensuality along with therapeutic massage techniques. I'm used to receiving a strong deep-tissue massage so when Ryan began with his tantric feather-touch technique, I wasn't so sure that I would enjoy it. However, it relaxed me right away ( a feat that is difficult in itself, as I am a definite type A personality). Ryan intuitively knows how to use many techniques to both relax the muscles, and stimulate the circulatory system. He is very pleasant with you during the entire massage and it never felt rushed. I look forward to my next appointment!"
|
Patrick - Just awesome!"From the minute I opened the door Ryan puts you right at ease. It's like catching up with an old friend again. He takes the time to get to know you on a personal level, and thoroughly explains the entire process too which I liked. HIs soft touch and pressure both felt amazing and he had just the right amount of pressure everywhere on my body. I didn't want to get up off the table when he was finished! I will definitely be booking with Ryan again in the future! A true professional and worth every dollar!"
|
Jim - ProfessionalismHi Ryan, I really enjoyed it, thanks. Tight knee joints felt great the next day. I appreciate your skill and professionalism!
|
Todd - Sensual but respectful"Great massage Ryan. It was very sensual but remained professional at the same time. I will be back. T"

Bryan R - National Tour Manager |
Rob & Dany - Switzerland |
I am a tour manager for a national theatrical tour and am only in any city for just one or two days and without a car. Discovering Ryan and his willingness to come to my hotel WITH everything that I am used to in a spa setting, was incredible! On 30 minutes notice, he showed up with a heated massage table, soothing music and multiple oil types. He was not rushed, and he made me feel comfortable (which can be awkward when a therapist comes to a hotel room since there are "those other types" out there offering "massage". I opted for the 90 minute massage, and it was worth every penny! I will definitely hire Ryan again the next time I pass through here!

"After a long vacation over the holiday season, our massages with Ryan were exactly what we needed! Even though we called at the last minute, he was able to schedule us in and extremely friendly (which put me at ease right from our first contact).
Thank you Ryan for your sensitivity and knowledge of how a massage should be done! We were left on a cloud with our feet totally anchored in the ground. The only regret we have is that we are too far away to be able to be regular clients!" Happy New Year and all our best! Rob & Dany |
