A Kansas massage therapist has been charged with sexually assaulting multiple women who were his clients, according to court records. The accused, identified as Aaron P. Borger, 44, is charged with two counts of rape, five counts of aggravated sexual battery, and four counts of misdemeanor sexual battery, according to Kansas court records.

Authorities claimed that Borger worked as a massage therapist at a yoga studio in Baldwin City, Kansas. The alleged assaults took place from 2024 through April 2026. Borger was first arrested on April 8, the Baldwin City Police Department said. At the time of his arrest, he was initially charged with two counts of rape and one count of aggravated sexual battery.

"The arrest is the result of an investigation into an alleged incident that occurred last week, during a massage therapy appointment at Om Grown Yoga, a business located in Baldwin City," the police department said, as quoted by PEOPLE.


The court records reveal that he has been charged with additional counts for alleged offenses ranging from 2024 to April 2026 since then. According to police, Borger was initially reported on April 3 by one woman who alleged that he digitally penetrated her during a massage, PEOPLE reported, citing an affidavit obtained by the outlet.

After Borger was arrested, more women stepped forward claiming that they had been assaulted by him during a massage, according to the affidavit. Police stated that Borger also worked out of a chiropractor's office in Grandview, Mo.

“Our office thanks these victims for coming forward and sharing their stories with law enforcement,” Douglas County District Attorney Dakota Loomis said in a statement, according to KCTV. It was not immediately clear whether Borger had entered a plea.
