Ken can and will adjust the pressure of his massage to your preference. He has a tactile and intuitive sense of which areas need the most attention and he focuses accordingly. I don't even have to tell him what needs to be done. I simply lay down and let him lead. His techniques are superb. Ken has a personality that just relaxes you. He is a genuinely warm and caring person. I met him when he was just a kid on summer vacation and it has been a pleasure watching him grow into a fine young man.
