Services
Carino Massage was developed from theories of ancient Central American Papil and Mayan Indians and their practice of "anointment of oil." Many cultures around the globe view massage as a necessary part of life for a person to be whole and healthy, not just as a luxury or special occasion gift.
The "Carino" style combines fluid, circular strokes using the palms, fingers and knuckles, with focused integrated breathing (much like that of yoga-style breathing techniques).Muscles are stimulated from multiple directions and pressures, while the therapist maintains contact with the body throughout the entire treatment period.

Love love love this place!! Johnny Ray is magic. With my first good exhale I knew I was long overdue for a massage - I mean who knew your armpits could be tight?!?! Geez, I really needed that! He takes so much care and treats the body with respect and reverence. His hands are strong and work out all the kinks, but in addition to a great massage he creates a nurturant, peaceful environment - it’s so relaxing you can really just let go and trust that you will leave a better version of yourself than you walked in. I highly recommend this spot - you’ll be clamoring to go back - I sure am!!!

Run. Now. Make an appointment with Johhny Ray. Seriously, hands down best massage I've ever had.
Been going to Johnny Ray for 10+ years and he is nothing short of AMAZING. I do not use this word lightly, but the best one word description of the experience of his massage is Godly. You feel so taken care of, supported, uplifted- physically and mentally.
He has a talent I've seen in no other masseuse and a gift of reading bodies.
His set is up is nothing fancy, but great location on Melrose in Weho and the space is super clean/safe.
Do yourself a favor and book now, as he fills up fast.

The best professional in the business. Johnny is a true intuitive healer and the only person I trust for massage. He has helped alleviate my upper back/neck issues to help me get my range of motion back. Literally the best massage I have ever had. I leave there feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. I don't ever want to go anywhere else.

Just returned from a thoroughly relaxing massage from Johnny! He certainly knows the right pressure, soothing strokes, gentle stretches, breathing patterns and thought-provoking self-assuring responses to make any tight muscle, stressed mind or injured area relax! I feel refreshed to take on the world, prepared for a great night’s sleep and reminded that self-care really matters. Thank you, Johnny for the attention my mind, body and soul needed! I will be back!

I’ve been going to Johnny Ray for close to 4 years and he is top notch. His massages are magical and therapeutic! He knows just the right amount of pressure to add to work through tight areas but also creates a wonderfully relaxing experience. I look forward to this blissful time each month and am so glad I found him!

Johnny Ray and Cariño are two of my favorite parts of visiting L.A. Johnny knows how to balance working out the kinks and relaxing my stiff old muscles, but also is always careful to be more gentle in my more sensitive spots. He has a great memory so I can just lay there, enjoy the massage and drift off into my zone.
I just love this spa!!
