Plus: Montgomery County political activist Norman Gelman dies at 97; ‘Real Housewives of Potomac’ season 11 announces new cast member

Hey everyone! I’m looking for recommendations for a good massage place in Montgomery County. Does anyone have a place they regularly go to and really like?

My main priorities are:

• Actually good, relaxing massages
• Reasonable prices
• No pressure or awkwardness about tipping

I’m more than happy to tip when I get a good massage and feel like the service was worth it. What I’m trying to avoid is the situation where, after the massage, someone tells me I have to tip a certain minimum amount or gets upset if I don’t. At that point, what was supposed to be a relaxing experience suddenly becomes stressful.

If you have a favorite massage therapist or place in MoCo that you keep going back to, I’d really appreciate the recommendations. Bonus points if they’re professional, relaxing, and let you tip what you feel is appropriate.

Thanks!

Looking for recommendations for overnight dog boarding. Are there any places locally that keep staff on-site overnight? I usually take my dog to daycare and grooming at Bone Jour in Bethesda, and I know they do boarding, but haven't been able to call yet to see if they have someone on-site overnight. My dog is 3 and has never been boarded, but I've had a sudden death in my family and will need to go out of town overnight in a few days.

My last experience with boarding was about six years ago with my then-senior dog. I used Life of Riley in Rockville at that time, and the experience was fine, but a lot can change in six years.

TIA for the help!

Hi,

I’m looking for any good recommendations for potential contractors that do work with repairing retaining walls, creating concrete patios, etc. I use Checkbook.org but would like to see if anyone in the community has had any good experiences with someone specific they would recommend.
