I Need A Rub
I haven't had a massage in a long time. And after the past year, I desperately need one. My problem is I can't find a really good masseur. I've had some pretty bad experiences which I should write about in depth later, but for now: There was the straight guy who was sick and coughed on me the whole time. There was the skinny little chatty patty who engaged me in conversation the whole time, and pet me like I was her puppy. There was the effeminate gay guy who sssssooo wanted to chit chat and ssssseemed to have bird fingers, as I hardly felt anything. These situations created more knots in my back as I left.
I just want a simple full body massage without any talking and a whole lot of rubbing. If anyone knows if this person exists in DC, please contact me. I'm serious.
And if the masseur looks like this guy, even better.

The guy I use is great, cheap too, just one hitch - he's out in Bailey's and you need a car to get there... I want to go see him before school starts since my back is killing me!

I highly recommend Jim Piper (LMT, MMP) at the DuPont Center for Muscular Recovery. He's legit, professional, no-nonsense, nice, and beefy (but sadly not furry). He has huge hands that take me away to someplace else, so much so that it takes a moment for me to figure out where I am after the sessions: 1330 New Hampshire Ave., NW, Suite B2, (202) 833-2333.

It took me a year, but I found a great one in London. Probably doesn't do you much good, but hows about I go have one on your behalf?
My guy sounds like the Brit equivalent of jimbo's Mr Piper, so you should be in ... wait for it ... good hands.

My partner is a massage therapist. But she doesn't have a hairy chest and doesn't look like the guy above. Sorry.
