I’ve been meaning to write this review for some time now as this isn’t the first massage I’ve had with Olu at Obsidian Pyramid Holistic Therapies but he is the first man to have ever given me a massage. I originally found him through a Groupon deal and have returned at least ten times since. He operates out of Carpe Diem in Staple Hill.
He has always given me the same great service and gives one of the best, if not the best massage I’ve ever had. I start off led on my back and he works my legs then upper body. Afterwards I turn over and he does my legs then back, arms, neck and shoulders. Being that he is a man I do feel that he is able to get deeper into the knots in my muscles than a female massage therapist. I’ve returned to him roughly every three to four weeks for this reason alone but he is also a really nice guy. He tailors the treatment to any specific areas that I need working on and through speaking to him I can tell that he is very knowledgeable in his field. I Would recommend a visit to Olu for anyone who needs aching or painful muscles worked on. I have done several times and plan on returning many more.
