Many massage saloons, fitness centers may have variety of massage based on classical massages. If you need just an oil massage it is always good to get the massage in spa center. If you practice some kind of sports I strictly recommend to get it from a fitness center as they are are focused on some certain muscle group and able to treat you high quality Sports massage. Spa massages are mostly little more chilling and endulding style massages some may have oriental massages, too. In some countries massage saloons has bad reputation as being not professional, not hygenic enough, quick service etc. actually this is kind of the case in my country. For sure there are also well decorated, clean and safe places but need some time and work to find them.

That is why mostly people prefer to get massage at spa center. Overall, spa, massage saloon, fitness center, health club and some saunas have some certain of type massages followed by the therapist almost exactly the same for every client which made me decide to be freelance and work with the clients indiviudally. I believe the massage should be personalized and unique for the client. Getting a private massage is always gives you the chance to make your own requests and go beyond standard than routine, serial massage technics applied for all the clients. In that case combining different kind of massages in one session is essential for a perfectly completed holistic therapy.

I myself was manager of hotels’ Spa and health club during my early years of massage careers. I worked based on touristic hotels and I would be responsible to keep some certain concept for all the clients and keep responsible the masseurs with their practice. I believe that the massage is kind of an art and cannot be done just the same routine, followed series for everyone. Everybody has different anatomy and needs. Also I have my own modern approach for massage therapy. Many hotels and spas are full of restriction touching some part of the body such as gluteus muscle indeed this muscle group is the largest group of the body connected to syatic nerves and very relaxing area. When you get a private massage you are the master of your body and all will be discussed with the massage therapist before the session and for me this is the most ethical way of massage. Just to listen to clients comfort zone create a trustful atmosphere and work with harmony of clients request.

It is always good to have your own private massage therapist who you see regularly that knows your personality, body, anatomy and needs very well.

Kindly, if you need just a regular classical massage please book it from your hotel, spa, health club, fitness center !

Contact me if you need a private, unique combination of massages from oriental to western style which you can get only from me!

Yoni (Joni) massage for women. You may get a whole body real massage includes your genitals. Your nipples, your genitals, all of your body parts are YOU. So it is accepting yourself as you are. When you skip massaging genitals they do not go anywhere they are still there with you, part of you and your body. Tantra massage is a holistic therapy. You may judge or see it as a taboo zone etc. but for a tantric therapist your nose is not different than your nipples, your arm is not different from your head, your genitals are not different from your hair. Because the therapist see you as a whole. Not divided to the parts. Tantra massage balances your hormones, your energy. Once your body relax, your mind is relax the moment you are in the state of relaxed body and mind then here the doors open to connect your soul, spirit, inner self, beyond etc…
Once your sexual energy awakened it will put you in state of peace as long as you manage to spread the energy in your body. Let the energy flow all over you.If you are not ready for that experience maybe order light Tantra work and even if you order full body Tantra the entire session modified to consent and within your boundaries at your comfort zone.

The point is how much you are comfortable with yourself with your true existence. The massage may or may not include any part out of your comfort zone as you wish. It is a process of exploring yourself. Experiencing the massage with your senses as it is natural process. Let your body value the massage not your mind. You may get only back massage, only sensual massage, deep tissue, sports, relaxing or full body massage. It depends on your needs, mood and desire. There is time for each of different type of massage. The right type of massage is the massage you and your body desire for.

Alcohol, loosens your awareness and your body will not get the most of benefit of the massage if you consume just before or during the massage. Smoking, do you know how many brain cells dies irrecoverably at each inhalation of a cigarette? It is almost 50.000 – 100.000 brain cells. Carbon monoxide takes place in your blood instead of oxygen. Oxygen is life and energy. We breath and do some breathing technic during the massage to have more oxygen in our blood. I think we all are aware of effects of using drugs. Just to remind you the things you already know…

Massage is a fantastic experience to get rid of toxins from the body as a holistic therapy. Massage helps to detox. Having a better blood transportation will enhance cleansing.

Most of my massage clients are aware and get massage for relaxation consciously. But sometime I meet some clients that are really very restless, hesitated and addicted to smoke and drink to relief the stress because of personal problems, business, love affair. The more escaping from the reality, the more we will be consuming toxics. Lately, I have been asked if it is good to use poppers before the massage for better relaxation. All these chemicals for sure relax you just very short-term, in long-term they will cause worse sex life and addiction to that chemicals. After the massage drinking just a glass of water or aromatic herb tea, eating juicy fruits will definitely help you to relax more without any side effect.

Drinking, smoking a cigarette or marijuana, using drugs etc. will definitely give you relaxation and make your mood up but this will be just for couple hours following a headache, hangover and even more depressive upcoming moments when the effects gone. Sure, you will comeback understanding nothing is changed after drinking alcohol for relaxation you have the same wife, the same husband, the same partner, the same problem, the same job, the same situation. Once you accept yourself, your world, your life etc. as it is and understand some things are cannot be changed then that allowance will create a realistic manner for life. Nothing is always up or down. Staying in the moment and accepting happiness, sorrow, bad and good moments as it is, is the key to have a smooth life with less stress.

Meditation, massage, yoga, pilates, running, cycling, hiking, swimming and many more activities can be replaced with any kind of chemicals and poisoning materials for more balanced and peaceful life.

Unfortunately, we are not meditating we are trying to meditate. Reaching a meditative state of being can take a life time practice. But it is always good experience to get back to our inner-self our true-self deep inside. Once we learn to meditate then there is no more need of meditation because we reach the total awareness.

How massage helps with meditation?

A relaxed body and mind can reach the meditative state. A tense body, full of thought mind cannot reach the joy of moment and existence. So, here the masseur helps you with professional touch to give you total body relaxation and confidence. During the massage if you try to relax whole body consciously and then try to be in total silence with yourself after the session taking your journey to meditation will be much more productive. Taking that time only for yourself freely will create an atmosphere to connect yourself deeply.

Meditation balances your epifisis and hipofisis which are very important for right amounts of hormones for perfectly functioning body. Kirlian photography prove that before and after meditation body energy flow totally changes, so there is no doubt that meditation helps healing. Living life meditative means to be at the moment when walking just walking, when eating just eating, when making love just making love you are totally there in the moment. Some claims the best meditation is sleeping it is in away right but this is mostly unconscious form of meditation. Meditation should be done consciously.

Masseur should be in a meditative state that ends up with a very successful massage therapy. The massage receiver also should be totally relaxed on the massage table. Consciously relaxing the body part of the massage therapist touch during the massage is an art and it is always recommended. Relaxed body will help the masseur to work with the energy and feel more connected to you. Relaxed body and mind prepare you for meditation which leads you to your inner silence, your true-self. In Western culture massage therapy is mostly anatomical and physical practice in the meanwhile in Eastern culture energy flow is quite important besides the physical therapy. Therefore many massage therapists practice spirituality such as yoga, meditation, martial art etc. That helps to understand existence, the connection between us to create more compassionate and delicate massage with love.

Besides my daily yoga and meditation practice. I meditate just before the massage therapy and mostly after the session to balance the energy.

Prenatal massage is specifically adapted for the anatomical changes women undergo during pregnancy. Benefits include relief from common discomforts like backaches, stiff neck, leg cramps, headaches, and edema (swelling). It can also reduce stress hormones, improve sleep, and promote overall relaxation. Therapists trained in prenatal massage use safe positioning, often side-lying with supportive pillows, to avoid pressure on the abdomen and ensure comfort. Deep pressure on certain areas, particularly the legs and abdomen, is avoided, as are specific acupressure points associated with uterine contractions. It's essential to seek a certified prenatal massage therapist and consult with your doctor or midwife before receiving massage, especially during the first trimester or if you have a high-risk pregnancy.

Orgasms vary from person to person and for each individual at different times. Sometimes orgasm is an explosive, amazing rush of senses, while others are milder, subtler, and less intense. Yoni  massage (for women) helps you to control and get the best of orgasm with all over body touch. Tantra sensual massage awaken your sensual energy and with some soft stimulation all over your body is sensitive with fully relaxed state. Orgasm is a total body response, not just a pelvic event. Brain wave patterns have shown distinct changes during orgasm, and muscles in many different areas of the body contract during this phase of sexual response. The most characteristic physical feature of orgasm is the sensation produced by the simultaneous rhythmic contractions of the pubococcygeus muscle (pc muscle). Along with contractions of the anal sphincter, rectum and perineum, the uterus and outer third of the vagina (the orgasmic platform) for women,  this constitutes the reflex of orgasm. Orgasm Differences Between Men and Women. Despite the anatomical differences between male and female genitals, orgasms in men and women are physiologically and psychologically, very similar. Feeling of orgasm in men has been described quite consistently as beginning with the sensation of deep warmth or pressure that corresponds to ejaculatory inevitability, the point when ejaculation cannot be stopped. It is then felt as sharp, intensely pleasurable contractions involving the pc muscles, anal sphincter, rectum, perineum and genitals. Women have described the sensations of orgasm as beginning with a sense of suspension, quickly followed by an intensely pleasurable feeling that usually begins at the clitoris and spreads throughout the pelvis. The genitals are often described as becoming warm, electric or tingly, and these physical sensations usually spread through some portion of the body. Most women also feel muscle contractions in their vagina or lower pelvis.

A major difference between the female and the male orgasmic phase is that far more women than men have the physical capability to have one or more additional orgasms within a short time without dropping below the plateau of sexual arousal.
TANTRA YONI MASSAGE helps you to experience multiple orgasms.

Chair massage, or seated massage, is performed while the client sits fully clothed in a specially designed ergonomic chair. Sessions are typically shorter, often 10-20 minutes, making it ideal for workplace settings, events, or quick stress relief. The massage focuses on high-tension areas like the neck, shoulders, back, arms, and hands – common problem zones for desk workers. Offering chair massage at work can significantly reduce employee stress, alleviate muscle tension from prolonged sitting, improve focus and productivity, and boost overall morale. It's a convenient and appreciated wellness perk that demonstrates employer care for employee well-being.

Massage therapy offers significant benefits for mental health by promoting relaxation and reducing stress. Physiologically, massage can decrease levels of the stress hormone cortisol while boosting levels of mood-regulating neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine. This hormonal shift can help alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression. The physical act of touch itself provides comfort, reduces feelings of isolation, and promotes a sense of connection and well-being. Regular massage can improve sleep quality, reduce physical tension associated with stress, and provide a dedicated time for relaxation and self-care, contributing to a more balanced emotional state.
