2. Services: Unlike massages that you typically find in health centers, Yusoff's massage is actually a physiotherapy session that is intended to rejuvenate one's health, as well as treat specific ailments that include:
- sprains;
- tiredness and fatigue;
- wind (sakit angin);
- backaches and back pain;
- poor blood circulation;
- stroke;
- male impotency;
- female problems, such as whitish discharge, irregular periods, uterine prolapse ("dropped womb"), and inability to conceive; and
- post-natal care for mothers.
Since Yusoff personally attends to all his customers, telephone bookings can avoid disappointment if the schedule is full for the day, although walk-in customers will be entertained, if the day's schedule permits. Working hours are from 10.00 am in the morning to 6.00 pm in the evening, 7 days a week. For those who can come only after working hours, special arrangements can be made.

3. Uniqueness: Using a unique Chinese massage technique that was passed down by his maternal grandmother, Yusoff's massage therapy focuses primarily on the abdomen area and six major abdominal muscles. Apparently, no one in Johor Bahru (or other towns, for that matter) does massage the way he does. Costing RM70.00 per one-hour session, with one hour usually sufficient for one session, Yusoff typically spend half the time working on the abdomen area, massaging on the intestines which are usually unworked during normal exercises, as well as realigning the six main abdominal muscles. First-timers normally feel very drowsy after their maiden massage because the break-up of dirt lining the small and large intestines sends some of the toxins into the blood stream. A short nap returns one to normalcy. However, after two or three visits, a customer will no longer feel this effect.

4. Yusoff's background: Yusoff learned the art of massaging from his maternal grandmother and also muay thai boxing when he was still young. In 1985, he started massaging full-time and during these past 26 years, he has achieved a number of "miraculous" results that he is extremely proud of, just like other highly-dedicated health professionals. A humble man, he is only to happy to share his personal success stories, if you ask him to, where patients whom Western medicine has been unable to treat had miraculously recovered after visiting him only a few times.
Yusoff is a devoted Muslim who has helped many people cleared away their black magic afflictions by chanting verses from the al-Quran. He does this for free as he says that the power comes from Allah and not from him. Even so, it may be considerate to give him a small ang pau (red packet) for his time and effort, even though he does not ask for it.
