Yes. His doctor had actually recommended for his lower back pain for him to do some stretching, some exercises, and that a deep tissue massage would probably help. So he booked one in New York City and he was really looking forward to having some relief from his pain. And he walked in. The place was just very serene. It was a nice scented room, candles, lovely music playing.

The massage therapist told him to get onto the massage table. And he did. And thought, this is amazing. Then the massage therapist came in and he put two warm hands onto Rick's back.

He wanted to scream out and say, ah, but he didn't. He hesitated and thought, OK, that's just the first. That's just the first part of the massage. But then he continued over and over again.
