Best massage I have ever had! Rick knows all the muscles and how they connect to really relax your body and take the stress away! I feel like a whole new person! read more

This was my first massage from Rick and I was so impressed. He found every sore spot, some I hadn't noticed until he found them and worked his magic. I've had a lot of massages in the past, but never has anyone used the massaging tool, which sounds like a sander but really pulses out the pain. That, combined with his massage, left me as pain free as I've been in years! You'll wish you had gone sooner. read more

Rick is the best massage therapist I've ever had. I've been using him since 2020. He is worth every penny.

Rick's massage is by far the best out there. I've gotten several massages from other places but his are different. The pressure, the muscles being work, everything is on point. Thankyou Rick and will definitely be booking again. read more

Yesterday afternoon, right around 2 pm, I felt a terrible amount of tension creep into my shoulders, neck, and back. I couldn't turn my head and I started to feel nauseous. So...I knew I needed to act FAST and get a massage ASAP. So I called my buddy Rick who's got a space in the Aiport Marriot Hotel. He's a master therapist of over 20 years. Thank GOD he answered because I drove out there and that man gave me the most incredible deep-tissue massage I've ever had (and BADLY needed!) I walked outta there feeling like JELLO. This morning I'm guzzling water, I put some tiger balm on some sore spots, and getting over to the Chiro...but OMG if you're in the area of the airport and need an AWESOME deep tissue massage...this man is who you need to go to! Rick -- thank you SO SO much! I'm healing again. read more

Rick is the best masseur of all time! I am very spoiled, I really like to treat myself to massage regularly over the past 15 years and it has always been a problem to find a specialist who knows a lot about his business. When you come to the session, you can not explain anything, Rick's hands themselves will find problem points on the body and work them out. Every massage is a real therapy. read more

Absolutely an ahhmazing massage by Rick! The BEST therapeutic massage I have ever experienced! He utilized a variety of professional massage techniques and tools to release muscle tension and bring my body back to balance. The Rapid Release PRO2 was a unique and effective treatment experience. Located in the Marriott Bonvoy at the Tampa Airport, Rick's Touch Massage and Bodywork is ideal for travelers and locals as well. I highly recommend this Master Therapist and can't wait to return to Tampa for another session! read more

I have probably had over 1000 massages in my life and Rick blew me away. He is very strong but gentle and was able to make positive change in my body with almost zero discomfort. He found all the spots that were causing me pain and was able to make me feel amazing. The room and table were very nice and comfortable too read more

If you need a real massage that will help you find relief with your tight and aching muscles as soon as the next day, Rick is the massage person you should see. Rick applied the correct pressure to work out all my knots and tightness. In addition, he used a device which emits vibrations to further break up the tissue causing discomfort. I highly recommend Rick. It is clear he is a professional and takes his work seriously. After only one session, much of my range of movement in one shoulder area has returned. With one more session, I'm confident I will be back to my normal range. read more

This is a way better than taking 3 days off. I was suffering chronic fatigue and had a very painful muscle over my shoulder and neck, but now I feel so relax as if I unloaded something heavy from my shoulder. Rick was amazing, he knew how to treat this type of pain. I found this place the day before when I picked up my friend in Tampa airport, and that was the great decision! I would recommend Rick to anyone who need to release their pain with his heavenly massage read more

This was unquestionably one of the best massages I've ever had. He was incredibly thorough and obviously knows what he's doing very well. This is now my new go to massage guy. I don't even care that he works 40 minutes from where I live. read more

Call Rick today for his famous Rapid Release Therapy. It's the most WONDERFUL massage you'll ever have. I arrived at Tampa International Airport with an extremely tight neck, shoulders and lower back. After looking at the reviews on Yelp!, I called Rick and was able to get a same day appointment. His massage studio is located at the Marriott on the airport grounds. Just leave your car with the valet, take the escalator up one floor, and you'll see his door on the right beside the fitness center. Rick uses a combination of techniques to relieve your muscle tightness so you feel AWESOME!! read more

I keep forgetting Ricks Touch Massage but what a major plus as a service to TPA. Located in the connected Airport Marriott, Rick has a albeit small but first class massage spot. Reservations can be made on the fly but only by phone. If you have time to burn at TPA, let Rick take out the knots the airlines put in. read more

Absolutely the best massage I have ever had! I don't think I have ever been so happy that an earlier flight was not available. His skill at dissolving every knot in my body is second to none. Rick uses state of the art Rapid Release techniques which ensure that you are reduced to a blissful puddle. If you are in the Tampa Bay Area, please don't settle for a mediocre massage. Your body will thank you! read more

So I got stranded at the Tampa airport Sunday night. I was under a ton of stress for other reasons also. Monday I googled "massage near me" and Ricks was the first that came up. I called him and he was able to accommodate me on such short notice....I have had tons of massages and I have to say this was hands down the best and most relaxing one I experienced. Rick was also kind and compassionate to my situation. I highly recommend looking him up when your in the Tampa area or have time to kill before your flight. Thank you Rick! I'll be back!

I was a loyal customer to Rick, and then I overslept once and missed my appointment by 20 minutes, called him to see if I could still come in late, and he said he will NEVER work with me again. I cannot believe he would do this to a client who has been seeing him regularly for almost a year. DO NOT GO TO HIM HE WILL BETRAY YOU WHEN YOU MAKE A MISTAKE. Sorry to say I would not recommend his services after this uncaring move. read more

The best massage and the owner Rick is very friendly! He help me to reduce the stress and my body especially shoulder feel relief after the massage. Love this place definitely recommended!!! read more

I am in town for a conference with no plans to leave the airport, and I am so excited I didnt!!! Best therapeutic massage EVER!!! I felt absolutely amazing afterwards! Rick also has a great bedside manner, which is very important for a massage therapist! I will potentially schedule another trip to Tampa just to visit the airport Marriott so I can get another massage! read more

Wanting to extend my "vacation mode" a bit longer, I searched for a massage parlor in the Tampa airport while waiting for my delayed flight. Rick greeted me right away and made me feel comfortable upon entering his business. One of the best massages I've had, honestly! He listened to where my problem areas were and was the perfect combination of gentle and tough where I needed it. I feel great post-massage and highly recommend stopping by if you're in the airport. read more

Rick is an excellent massage therapist! His knowledge is exceptional. He uses tools as well as hands. I got a full hour with him and all my needs were met. He's over at the Mariott attached to the airport! Many thanks! read more

What a great massage Rick is a real pro I have had 100's of massages over the years and I think he was one of the best. I was walking thru Tampa airport looking to kill some time so I walked toward the hotel hoping I could get a quick massage before my delayed flight took off. Next time I am near Tampa I will see Rick again for sure Jeff G read more

This place is absolutely amazing!! I've gotten massages all over the country in many big cities and at places that are claimed to be the "top" massage places but this is on a whole another level! Rick is so understanding of what your body needs and how to actually fix it! Hands down best deep tissue massage session I've ever had! I'll definitely be coming back everyone I'm in the Tampa Bay Area! read more
