My approach draws on tantric massage and other forms of bodywork. Over the years, these influences have come together in a way of working that is my own. I adapt each massage to you—what brings you here and what feels right for you.
You can lie down, close your eyes and let someone else take care of you for a while. Feel the warmth, the touch on your skin, your shoulders gradually softening and your breath becoming deeper.
Sometimes you mainly need to rest. At other times, you may want to pay more attention to your body, its sensitivity and sensuality. You can follow your own experience and see where it takes you. I’ll be there with attentive touch, responding to you and adapting the massage as we go.
I adapt the pace and pressure to you. We can spend more time on some parts of your body and less on others.
You might feel deeply relaxed, joyful, emotional, sensual or aroused. Or the massage may simply feel good and relaxing. Even if you come more than once, each session can be different.
This can feel a little like meditation. You can notice the touch, your feelings, emotions and thoughts as they come, and let them be as they are. Your experience can be just as it is. You don’t have to change it or make it go anywhere. You can allow yourself to be with what you’re feeling, as you are.
The massage can also make space for your relationship with intimacy and sexuality. If you wish, touch on intimate parts of the body can be included. We’ll talk beforehand about what that means for you and where the boundaries are, so we both know what feels okay.
Sometimes it’s hard to put into words what you feel or want around intimacy. You may not know exactly what you need or how to approach it. You might come with a vague feeling or a sense of curiosity, and that’s okay. Perhaps you simply want to receive touch you’ve been missing, feel more connected to your sensitivity, tenderness or femininity, or let yourself be cared for for a while. Intimacy doesn’t have to be a problem to solve. It can simply be part of you that you want to give a little time and attention.
If you’re looking for a massage focused on care and rest, where intimate touch isn’t part of the session, you might prefer my Nourishing Massage for Women.
