By far the best massage I got in a long time. Paulo is a great therapist, he welcomed me very well and treated me with courtesy and respect throughout our meeting. His hands put me to ease right from the beginning, the room, ornaments, candles, music, lightning were all part of an unforgeable evening; his hospitality is second to none! I would recommend him without any hesitance. He knows his stuff and besides all the effort, he also gave me tips and advice regarding the massage business! Definitely on my buddies list, can't wait to meet him again!

Paulo reached out to me about a month before my visit to London, so we had plenty of time to exchange messages and make arrangements. I traveled to his home, super easy to find - a short walk from a nearby Underground Station. The massage table was set up, the room was heated, the water bottles, clean towels, and heated almond oil were waiting. His massage certifications are framed on the wall... he worked hard to get them, and his training was evident when I had my time on the table. I was glad that I elected to work on Paulo first - he's awesome, and after the massage I received from him, I wouldn't have had the energy to do a great job in return. He vigorously and liberally spread the oil on me ("no that's not part of the massage.... i'm just getting oil on you", he said) and then systematically, slowly, and intently worked on me. I'm not sure which I enjoyed more: the brisk strokes to relieve the stiffness in my neck and shoulders or the firm pressure on my feet that felt great after a day of walking around London. He also led me through some assisted stretching exercises which felt great. A hot shower to rinse off the excess oil afterward, and the massage exchange was complete. Great conversation, awesome massage. Five stars.
I had a very relaxing massage yesterday from Paulo. He is a polite guy with a nice and genuine personality. Since the moment I entered his massage room, I felt the warmth of his place. The atmosphere was amazing and relaxing, a decorated lightning with a holistic music. Paulo's massage technique was so professional, he knew how to use his arms and his intuitive hands with the right pressure and flexibility. He was a very good teacher too and I learned a lot from him. I strongly recommend everybody to receive a massage from Paulo's healing hands. I give him 5 stars for the relaxing time he offered and I would definitely repeat it again with him.
Another great session last week with this fabulous pro masseur who has all the experience and knowledge to provide a fantastic session. His welcoming venue is impressive at any time, while at Christmas it looks more like a winter wonderland than a front room in London, where he welcomes clients and visitors with a friendly and relaxed approach that would have the most steely cold body warmed up ready for a workout.. His style is a nicely balanced mix of firmer bodywork and a deft lighter touch to deliver another fabulous session as this is the first time I have met up with him for a while, and we have done sessions before. Working on his body in return offers the opportunity to gain valuable feedback and try out some new routines knowing that a professional therapist is not going to let you go too far wrong. Thanks again for a great evening and looking forward to 2015.
I had the pleasure of receiving a massage from Paulo today. From the very beginning, he was welcoming, knowledgeable and respectful. The massage room was warm and properly lit and he brushed off my tardiness very gallantly. During the massage, he kept explaining what he was doing and I always felt in safe hands. Speaking of which, Paulo has the most amazing hands, firm but gentle. The warm oil he used on my skin felt fantastic! The whole affair finished with a very relaxing head massage that just about lulled me into a very peaceful sleep.
I would recommend him in a heartbeat - he is truly one of a kind.
Paulo a master a guru!! worked on me last night and I gave thanks to this site that encourages professionals and amateurs alike to exchange. Without this site I wouldn't have met Paulo and then I wouldn't have had one of the best massages I've ever had. I have a rule not to exchange more than once with someone but with Paulo, I'm going to break that rule.
A master! And a really sweet guy too.
Hope to see you again soon..
I recently had a swap with Paulo and he received me in his space which he had made very atmospheric with candlelight and soothing music. Paulo is a very friendly and caring person. Also he is an extremely skilled masseur and works on a professional level. He has various diplomas in massage and therefore he is skilled in several techniques. At the end he also gave me a very nice head massage, so all in all it was an amazing experience.
I recently had the chance to meet PauloNW6 for an amazing massage. Paulo is a really caring person who truly does his best to deliver a very professional massage of the highest quality. Paulo treated me to a delightful head massage at the end of the session. It felt so right that I was almost falling asleep. I really felt great and relaxed after leaving his place and can only hope to meet him soon again. I'm a beginner and he really provided me with a lots of tips. Thanks Paulo!
