DexterousHands's Personal Masseur Interview

Last Updated: Oct 11, 2023

- I garden, go to farmers markets, check out great restaurants, host friends for parties/game nights. Travel as often as I can to get inspired, read, breathwork, energy work, workout.

- Refreshed/taller/calmer and grateful to have found me!

- I think it's important to get certified and have a complete understanding of body/tissues/organs/bones as well as understanding of contraindications, what to say/not say to clients. That being said - if a person who wants to learn massage has an intuitive touch they will far exceed someone who does not. It's like a painter - not everyone has it in them to be Van Gough.

- I do 1-2 big international trips a year but I do love my home. Los Angeles is a great place to live and work.

- I have a few years left in me!

- I'm a certified CMT who's been doing bodywork for over 10 years for myself, reiki 1 & 2 attuned, life coach, live a very healthy lifestyle (sober 11 years), I also love self care and include that into my lifestyle often.

- Put in the work and get certified so you know the body, muscle/tissue. Really commit to understanding proper body mechanics so you don't injure yourself and shorten your career/burnout. Get lots of massage from spas, masseurs so you understand what feels good and what doesn't and try to take one "move" they have done on you during your massage and incorporate into your sessions. Be your best self and take care of yourself. Body/mind/energy -

- I've always had intuitive strong hands - all of my friends and family would ask me to work on them when I was younger. I like the ability to have a flexible schedule, pursue my other interests and focus on one person at a time in a healing environment.

- Refreshed/renew/excited to have found a great masseur that they will come back to often.

- Yes, I would say I have worked with some of the most influential and talented men around the world. I never know why a client comes to me.

- I'm an empath, intuitive, kind and am meticulous in everything I do.

- I enjoy meeting all different kinds of high quality men. Massage is such a healing intimate way to get to know someone. I have seen clients regularly for years and I get to know who they are.

- Yes! I actually asked other masseurs who were friends and very busy with clients to let me work on them and they would give me their constructive feedback and it really helped me adjust my style/pressure and touch - I'm really grateful for the men that took the time to help me when I was just starting over ten years ago.
