Allegations against Baltimore Ravens’ star kicker Justin Tucker have surfaced of inappropriate sexual behavior by six massage therapists at four high-end spas and wellness centers in the Baltimore region, including Ojas Wellness in Pikesville, Apothecary Wellness, The Healing Path in Lutherville, and Studio 921 in Locust Point.
