LOS MANOS HECTOR FLORES, or as he’s come to be known around here as our “GOD”, is literally the most intuitive and knowledgeable massage therapist we could find within a 100 mile radius of the city of Los Angeles, After discovering HECTOR as the most requested therapist at the OJAI VALLEY INN AND SPA, we literally went there once a week for a year and begged him to come down to work with us.

Hector was schooled at the Utah college of massage therapy and his extensive knowledge of anatomy and kinestheology (how the body moves) means that he can solve aches and pains like a concert pianist plays chopsticks. We’ve decided Los Manos has eyeballs in his fingertips, or something. Here’s a tip: let him perform a series of massages on you. If you have a problem area, chances are a few sessions with hector, it will be history.

Hector specializes in opening the rotation of shoulders, and hips and for locating the root causes of physical and emotional strains that have plagued you for ages. Even men who “prefer female massage therapists” who try Hector make the switch. As one of our more stressed out clients recently stated after his first session, “Oh my God, my VOICE is even different!”

HECTOR and his wife NORA specialize in a 2-on-1 tandem treatment which is absolutely out of this world. There are a lot of hands and pressure everywhere, and after a few minutes you lose track of time and space and who is whois touching what. You’ll a reach a relaxation that is, well, pretty hard to describe and is one of the most pleasant experiences we’ve ever had within the realm of the state law. A wonderful and unusual gift for the massage afficianodo.
