Masseurs here in the Villages.

[Taltarzac725]

Who are some reasonably priced and good massage therapists here in the Villages? Any that come to your home. We had a lady who came to our home named Dottie I believe and wonder if she is back in business. She had had to take care of family members and the like.

you could try calling Pat at 772-713-3844. Pat is a woman :)

Chachacha you referred me to Pat about a year ago and I still go to her. She does the most thorough massage I have ever received. She is a gem. I hate to think of the day that she no longer does massages.

No offense, here is a copy/paste - post from UrbanDictionary:


"masseur
Generally considered to be a man who practices massage therapy, however this is a misnomer. A masseur is a man who practices massage and has none of the western medical training and is not licensed and may be associated with prostitution. In most states this is illegal.
I did not spend 15,000 dollars on school to become a masseur. The start up for prostitution would have been much cheaper but I wanted to make sure I didn't do anything stupid like perform hot stone on a client with severe heart problems so I became a massage therapist instead."

Anyone who went to school and is licensed will refer to themselves as Massage Therapists.

Thanks for the correction.

:popcorn::popcorn:Since OP asked for references not definitions. We do use massage envy up north have four very qualified therapist. We have tried ME here and so far have not found anyone equals our sessions up north. But it is a trial and error since each individual is different and the needs and wants of their session. They do not come to your home

If anyone knows Dottie would still like to know if she is working as a massage therapist? She is married to Joe and had/has a shelty named Laddie. I took care of her six cockatiels a few years ago so I do know where she lives. I suppose I could just drive by her house. She was good friends of some Doggie Doo Run Run regulars but they lost their beloved dog and as far as I know have not got a new one.

Dottie used to come to Doggie Doo Run Run. One day I walked into find her getting ready to give my Mom a massage in our house. It was a "hey, I know you moment" being a complete surprise to both of us.

Pat is excellent by the way. She helps a family member of mine.
