Ben is a great masseuse! I bought 3 sessions and just finished my 3rd session. Ben is really great about targeting your needs and really honing in on your problem areas. He customizes the massage and tailors it to the individual. Swedish, deep tissue...you name it. He does it all! He has converted the first floor of his home into his wellness studio and it is just lovely. I can't recommend him enough. He is a true professional.

I had my first session with Ben this week and it was amazing! I have chronic back & shoulder pain, and shoveling out of the snowstorm this weekend did not help. I felt like a new person after my session and felt just a little bit taller walking out. Ben was incredibly professional, polite, and friendly. He made me feel very comfortable and welcomed. Easy street parking nearby and driveway parking.

This was my first time ever getting a massage and I wasn't sure what to expect. Ben made me totally comfortable from the onset and answered all my questions/explained how the process would work. In terms of the massage - it was exactly what I was looking for. Highly recommended and a great value in terms of price.

I love how Ben takes the time to really get to know you and listen to your needs. His warm personality and cozy studio provide the perfect escape from day-to-day stresses. Ben’s technique, using a combination of his hands and forearms to work your body, is just perfect to work out tight muscles. Booking online is a snap and Ben is very accommodating of varying schedules. The Brookland location is very convenient and there’s plenty of street parking available.

I had a great massage with Ben. I had spent several months hiking the Appalachian Trail, and my body was in knots. Taking a quick break in D.C. allowed me to visit Ben's office. He was able to provide me with a fantastic massage. Ben addressed all of my tight muscles, and I left feeling so relaxed. And as a licensed massage therapist myself, I was impressed with client-centered approach to the session. I would definitely recommend booking a treatment at Auman Massage. Thank you Ben!
