TheMidasTouch's Massage Interview
Some people say that being a Masseur is addictive. Would you miss your Masseur days ?
I do remember, in my earlier days, the feeling that the greater beneficiary of the massage would be and is the client. However during my 11 years, I've found that I TOO feel regenerated and I love to see how I make my partners feel.
So, Yes. It IS Addictive. And yes I will have bittersweet memories of how relaxed and at ease I could make people just by my hands.
Why did you become a Masseur?
I was a broke 22 y.o. determined to leave my parents house, so at first it was for the income.
However I STAYED a masseur because I now have a mastery over my craft and I can use it to give a personal and discreet yet irrevocable joy.. love the energy that comes over me.
How often do you travel? Do you prefer to travel or are you more of a homebody?
I pretty much travel 2 to 3 times annually. My last trip in the was Barcelona Spain. Going to Vienna Austria Next
Tell us a little about yourself, if you were to pick something what would you like your clients to absolutely know about you?

Do you consider yourself a successful Masseur?
I consider myself a successful masseur because I absolutely love what I do and although i have repeat clients and people tell me that i have a nice touch, I'm passionate and serious about getting better and exceeding where i am right. Now.
What distinguishes you from all the other Masseurs?
