Victor is hands down the best deep tissue massage therapist I’ve been to. I’ll definitely be coming back for more sessions. He takes his time and focuses on the areas that need the most work. I didn’t even have to specify that my main issue was my upper left back—I just mentioned my back, and he immediately found the knots in my trouble spots. It was the most intense yet satisfying pain I’ve ever experienced, and I felt amazing afterward! I highly recommend trying the 60-minute session. Plus, he’s surprisingly affordable, so don’t let the downtown location fool you!

I have been getting therapeutic massages from Victor for three years. His medical knowledge is extensive and his attention to detail impeccable. Victor knows when I need silence and introspection, reminds me to breathe through the deep tissue release, and is cognizant of my preferences. He has been a pillar in my physical recovery and migraine management. I appreciate Victor being a trauma informed massage therapist and have never felt anything but respected and comfortable. 10/10 highly recommend. Note: I have received many massages all over Southeast Asia, including Thailand, and Victor has been the best!

Amazing Thai massage. Extremely therapeutic. I asked for deep pressure and that’s what I received. Helped to release a great deal of tension and stiffness. As someone used to getting massages with deep pressure, I was very impressed with the consistently deep pressure and stretching techniques. It was clear that he has a very good knowledge of underlying muscle structure. Highly recommend.

I went to Victor for a massage yesterday. I’m recently getting more serious with my workouts. I’m working on improving my posture and weak posterior chain muscles. I did a more intense leg day and my hamstrings which are usually tight. They were tight and sore for 3 days without significant improvement day to day no matter what I tried, which prompted me to get a massage. Make focus area for yesterdays massage what the knots in between my shoulder blades! I forgot how much of an issue they are. Especially when doing shoulder press movement and holding a bar on my traps. Really anything with my arms overhead. I started avoiding those movements because I’m weak, lack endurance and it’s painful in those areas. Back in the gym today and realizing mind muscle connection improved and I know exactly where to need more work so I can choose workouts and stretches that further my progress. Step one of problem solving is identifying the problem and I can CONFIRM after a massage with Victor you’ll know exactly where that knot is and will have better range of motion to know how to KEEP MOVING forward towards your pain free body! Excited to see where I’ll be in a year. I will continue booking with Victor whenever I feel myself plateauing. Most of my plateaus are from lack of range of motion (that I forget how even possible) due to prolonged lack of blood flow caused by knots and Victor is the man to find them. (If y'all find this review helpful I’ll take pics of my posture and give an update later.)

The massage was amazing & I left feeling so relaxed, with all the tightness in my muscles loosened out! The ambiance was peaceful and venue really clean. Victor was kind, friendly, & respectful. I’d recommend to friends & other visitors in the San Antonio area.
