Recently I spent a delightful evening with joanc53. The remarkable number of reviews she has testify to her fascinating career, erudition and skill as a masseuse, all of which I was privileged to enjoy. She has a confident and caring touch that combined pleasure and therapy quite perfectly. On reciprocation, she generously left me to go my own untrained way and showed great appreciation, which was kind and encouraging. Although I have received massage for years I am still learning in my delivery of technique but I hope and believe Joan enjoyed my touch. I hope we can meet again.

I found joanc53 a very interesting person with whom I could have enjoyed discussion until the early hours.
Her massage technique was better than many professional massages. I may have drifted asleep a few times, which is a testament to a relaxing experience.
I look forward to further exchanges!

Have just spend a delightful 3 hours in the company of Joan. Joan is a very well travelled, well versed woman who puts you at ease from the off. Having chatted for a while Joan massaged me and I have to say it was heaven, her slow strokes, with just the right amount of pressure, sent waves of enjoyment through my body. Unfortunately my reciprocal massage was nowhere near as good as Joan's but she seemed to enjoy it and offered constructive feed back on my technique. The darker side of me thought about not reviewing Joan in an attempt keep her for myself but her credentials are all there in her reviews, and they are spot on. You will not be disappointed with Joan.

I recently had the pleasure of exchanging with joanc53 while I was on a trip to London.
She is a wonderful, welcoming person.
joanc53 mentioned that she didnt have any formal massage training but the fluidity of the stokes, consistency of pressure and variety of hand techniques suggest otherwise. Exceptional!
It is one of the best massages, professional or otherwise, that I've ever received.
I will definitely hope to organise another when I'm next in London.
Thank you joanc53.

I have had massage swaps with joanc53 several times in the last year or so, and on each occasion I have come away with a very great feeling of well-being. This week I met joanc53 once again and had a very pleasant evening - as always she was very welcoming and put me at ease with her conversation about her work and travels. Then I greatly enjoyed her massage; she certainly is very skilled. I do highly recommend her.

I've had an exchange with Joan today and I was very impressed. Joan is a very interesting person with many diverse experiences and is an absolute pleasure to have a conversation with.
Her massage was pleasingly relaxing and invigorating with many interesting methods that I wasn't avare of, so not only did I had a great massage, I also learned quite a few things.
If you are looking for a very pleasurable experience and a quality massage exchange, I highly recommend to get in touch with Joan. She is very busy, but if you'll manage to arange an exchange with her, go for it.

Joan and I had an exchange yesterday, and it was a great experience. We had been exchanging emails for more than a month trying to arrange a meeting, but work schedules, being out of the country, and finding a convenient time was a challenge. As can be read in many reviews on Joan, she is a very interesting person, and as it turned out, she and I had visited common locations, but the work performed was quite different.

The massage session was very good. Joan has a very focused style, using hand techniques that match the part of the body she is working. I found her style very stimulating, relaxing, and enjoyable. When she finished with me, I was so relaxed, I needed a little recovery time before I massaged her. I believe I received good marks for my delivery.

Upon finishing, and before we said our goodbyes, we agreed that we should connect again for another session. I will welcome that, hopefully sooner than later. I highly recommend exchanging with Joan.

This was a really good first massage exchange for me and I'm grateful to Joanc for making it so pleasant and easy. From the unscented almond oil to the massage table you feel straightaway as if you are in experienced hands. As others have said, I have had professional massages that were not up to Joanc's standard. The touch is just right and like others I almost felt myself drift away. I was quite nervous massaging Joanc but she put me at my ease and was kind enough to say that I had a nice touch. So I feel very encouraged by her comments. Joanc is very well-travelled with a job that takes her to extraordinary places, so conversation with her was easy and interesting and her choice of background music also really stands out.

I guess it's been said before, Joan is a very interesting person, makes you very comfortable from the moment you meet her. Joan has a very soothing massage style which totally relaxes and sees you float off into a dream world.
I look forward to another exchange.

Joan put me at ease as soon as I arrived. Her pressure and strokes were fantastic and I was so relaxed throughout the massage. I have learnt a lot this evening which I will take and incorporate into my future treatments and will definitely be exchanging with Joan again. Top marks.

hi all g had my fist exchange with Joan this week, I can only say what a provident meet and fantastic memorable exchange. Joan has the capability to put you at you ease effortlessly, we had a very engaging conversation before which identified our apparent similarities. It became quickly noticeable that Joan's massage skills, far outweighed my rather enthusiastic amateur offering, however Joan did teach me some skills to build my repertoire. I would definitely recommend Joan as a 1st meet, I will definitely be booking further sessions with Joan.
She is a very well travelled and experienced lady, with the softest of touch, I had not experienced before, I can definitely recommend her to all so book a meeting with her.

Pleasant massage swap thank you Jo. I was a little bit nervous as this was my first exchange. Joan is great easy to get on with and she gives a really nice relaxing massage, After arriving and introducing ourselves, we had some nice conversation. joanc53 is a bit of a world traveller who has visited some very interesting places and I was keen to hear about her work, we had a good chat before the session. The session began with me giving Jo a traditional Indian/Pakistani oil head massage follow by back and shoulder massage. Her massage bed is very soft and comfortable. joanc53 is passionate about massage and has learned a variety of techniques. She used some lovely and unique methods that really had me completely relaxed and drifting off. I would recommend Joan to anyone seeking a massage exchange. I’m hoping to have my second exchange soon.

My exchange with and hosted by jooanc53 was a delightful experience. She took great care to create a calm and relaxing setting, with a personally-compiled music tape (no whales or wind chimes, 'proper music' as she pointed out). warming towels, a litre of non-scented almond kernel oil, glasses of water -- and a magnificent, well-upholstered professional massage table. The lights were dimmed. She asked me to be massaged first on the understanding that after the experience I'd be too relaxed to safely travel home. This proved correct: she has a confident and caring touch that, in my case certainly, combines pleasure and therapy quite perfectly. On reciprocation, she generously left me to go my own untrained way and showed great appreciation, which was kind and encouraging. We had great conversation centred, much of it, around her fascinating background. I learned a lot!

I happily recommend joanc53, it was a great exchange.

I had a very relaxing massage exchange with joanc53. After arriving and introducing ourselves, we had a nice conversation while enjoying some white wine. joanc53 has traveled around the world to some very interesting places and I was keen to hear about her work. The session began with joanc53 massaging me. Her massage bed is one of the best I have seen – very soft and comfortable. joanc53 is passionate about massage and has learned a variety of techniques. She used some lovely and unique methods that really had me completely relaxed and drifting off. Then it was my turn! I gave joanc53 a full body massage, focusing on long slow strokes, which I understand is her preference. She seemed to enjoy my touch and was soon relieved of any stress and tension. joanc53’s flat is only a 10 minute walk from the station which makes for convenient access. I look forward to another exchange with this wonderful lady the next time I’m in London!

Our meeting on Saturday was my first under the auspices of MassageExchange, and could not have been a better introduction. She is both intelligent and knowledgeable. Her massage technique was both deft and assured, using just the right amount of pressure and rhythmic content. By the end of the massage I was in a state of extreme relaxation, something I do not often manage to achieve. This is definitely an experience to be repeated

I had the privelidge of an exchange with Joan today, 5 stars is not high enough, but that's all I'm allowed to give! Such an interesting person to chat with, and her massage was sensational!I left her flat feeling so much better, and will certainly be asking her for a further exchange soon, she is so busy with her work travelling the world, and helping people living in undeveloped countries that I expect I will have to join the queue. A wonderful professional massage that would not hesitate to recconmend to anybody!
