More About Me (Therapeutic Directory)
Hi, and thanks for stopping by. I’m here to explore my interest in massage through meaningful exchange that supports relaxation, physical relief, and mindful connection.
My experience so far has been informal—mainly giving massage to partners and friends who appreciated my calming, intuitive touch. Over time, I’ve developed a grounded and respectful approach, and a natural ability to help others feel at ease and supported. Currently, I’m studying Health Science with plans to pursue massage therapy certifications either during or after earning my BSc. Massage Exchange offers a great opportunity for hands-on experience as I continue learning and developing my technique through mutual exchange.
My professional background is in technology. In 2024, I completed two Master’s degrees to strengthen my skillsets and pivot into a technology area aligned with my long term personal goals. I'm a life-long learner.
Outside of work and studies, I enjoy travel, holistic health, and spending time in nature—whether that’s hiking, relaxing by rivers, or exploring new beaches. My passion for travel even led me to pursue and earn an IATA certification. I’m continuing to grow in the areas of tech, wellness, and travel, as I believe each contributes to a well-rounded life and future.
Some of the massage styles I aim to explore, offer, and receive include:
• Swedish massage
• Deep tissue massage
• Thai massage
• Trigger point therapy
• Myofascial release
• Shiatsu
• Foot reflexology
• Indian head massage
• Facial reflexology
• Chair massage
• Aromatherapy massage
These interest me because they balance relaxation, technique, and intention—each offering something unique to the experience.
A few non-exhaustive safety and practical considerations:
• I follow standards for hygiene, communication, and consent.
• Boundaries are always discussed beforehand.
• If I’m giving, I ask the receiver to provide the space, linens, oils, and tools.
• If receiving, I will supply everything needed for the experienceunless offered by the giver.
• Respect and comfort are always mutual priorities.
If you’re looking for a calm, thoughtful, and open-minded massage exchange partner who values mutual respect and communication, I’d be happy to connect.
