Malec Body Therapy

As a curvy girl at a size 16/18, I was hesitant to schedule any type of massage because everywhere you look online shows size 2 models. So I reached out in my community group and got overwhelmed with suggestions of places (70+). However, Malec kept being repeated again and again by many women my size (and smaller). He also popped on saying every body type deserves self care. After some chats with him and conversations- I got an appointment booked. Let me tell you.... as a first timer.... The experience was flat out amazing! He never once made me feel insecure. He listed to what I wanted and was looking for. There was no discomfort or awkwardness and he managed to find every single tight spot to work on. Hurt so good? Yeah it's a thing.... definitely looking forward to my next one... and co

Aaron is an excellent massage therapist. He is very trauma-aware and creates a space that feels safe and respectful. He has an intuitive ability to find tension and adjust the session in a way that meets your body exactly where it is that day. He is always willing to make changes to make the session more comfortable. Highly recommend.

I highly recommend Aaron. I was too shy to have a male massage therapist but was struggling to find a female massage therapist that was strong enough for the pressure I wanted. Aaron was recommended to me by a friend because she had the same problem until she met Aaron. Aaron is very professional and made me comfortable right from the beginning. He listened to what I wanted and customized my massage to focus on the areas that were my main concern. His studio is very clean and cozy, making the massage very relaxing. I was surprised how fast an hour went by. I will definitely be back!

I've visited Aaron's studio twice for two-hour deep tissue massages, and he does great work. I will definitely be back.

Aaron does amazing work and has helped with problems I have been having for years. He is easy to schedule with and in a very convenient location in Cedar Rapids. Pricing is very low for the high quality work he puts into his clients. I have scheduled monthly massages due to his talent. Highly recommend.
