TouchOfMiles's Personal Masseur Interview

Last Updated: Sep 23, 2021

- My profile says it all - and for the rest of it, you'll get to know that through our sessions together.

- I would love for them to leave feeling relaxed (of course) and at ease. Find a new masseur can be a difficult process. I try to make sure all my clients feel comfortable, understood and at ease. It makes it much easier for them to relax and enjoy their massage.

- I just hit my 5 year milestone and it flew by! I think I will be continuing for many, many years to come.

- I love to read - mostly current events, camping, rugby, rainy day cuddles, and all snacks!

- When I first began working out, I noticed how many people forgot about stretching, proper posture, the art of massage, etc - myself included (back then!). So I wanted to create a way to help others in this capacity. My massages include stretching, body adjustments and different massage techniques.

- I do! They are still with me... 6 years later!

- Absolutely! I would miss the connection I have with my clients the most.

- I do - I am not sure what the measurement is for this however most of my clients have been with me for many years. It brings me joy to see my clients smile with relief after our sessions - and when I get to see the same clients with that joy each session, I see that as success.

- Learn the basics, keep learning and researching, listen to your clients needs - don't just make a routine and go through the motions.

- All masseurs have their specialty, so it is truly up to our clients to determine the best masseur. However I can say my focus is to connect with my clients through conversation and on-going sessions. Connecting deeper allows me to provide relief with techniques specialized to each client.

- I travel often - I love to explore! While I livein Philadelphia, I travel to NYC & DC monthly to visit my regular clients as well as see my friends and family there. My ultimate favorite place I have visited is Paris!

- Yes, as well as on-going training. I am always trying to advance the techniques I was taught. When working with my regular clients, I like to explore their bodies to understand what work is needed - this allows me to research more techniques that are specialized to my client.

- I love when my clients leave our sessions feeling heard and relaxed. I love having conversation with my clients to understand their day to day, stresses, thoughts, etc. When I know more about my clients, I am able to focus my attention on their body work based on what is needed the most.
