I enjoyed an excellent exchange with oscarchristian during my recent visit to Montreal. He's a dancer and his body is firm yet flexible, an utter joy to work upon. He gave me a very good massage in return and demonstrated a sound understanding of touch and the benefits that can bring. With a little more training and experience, he has all the talents to become an excellent masseur.
We recently exchanged at Funkybootz's home. He prepared a floor level working space and arranged good lighting and music. At my request, he turned up the temperature so we could both be comfortable during the massage. The exchange was good. I enjoyed massaging Funkybootz as he takes care of himself and as a former dancer he still has good muscle tone. He gave me a good massage in returning, confirming that he understands the foundations of the art. With some additional experience he will undoubtedly become a competent masseur. I would recommend an exchange with Funkybooz.
It took some time to organise an exchange with malegrooming, but without question, the wait was worth it. He's a charming man and a gracious host. It was a hot and sultry evening so I was thankful for the cold drink offered to me upon arrival. He made me feel at ease and we chatted a little before getting down to massage. As I had travelled, he offered to massage me first. The table was already set up and so I undressed and made myself comfortable. The massage was very relaxing and I was particularly grateful to malegrooming for paying attention to my shoulders as these areas seem to be the focus of any tension that I carry. malegrooming is a qualified masseur who wants to build up his experience with a view to building up a professional client base. With his combination of technical skill and generous personality, he is destined to succeed. I should also add that massaging his body was an absolute joy. He's impeccably groomed...as one might expect from someone who calls himself malegrooming. He looks after himself and he is in excellent physical condition. I'm looking forward to our next meeting in the very near future.
I met with N8whit this morning at his home in North London. He was a gracious and attentive host. He had taken the trouble to set up his massage table in the living room, insured a good working temperature and ambient music. We decided that he should massage me first and I must say I was very impressed with his technical skills. It's hard to believe that he has not received formal training as he was clearly very knowledgeable and skilled in the art of massage. He combines good pressure with light strokes and within a few minutes I found myself drifting into a semi sleep; a most conducive state for receiving a massage. I would strongly recommend an exchange with N8whit.
In terms of massage experience, these are early days for walthamstowe17 yet he shows a natural understanding of touch. His approach is unhurried and he takes time to check that he is applying the right levels of pressure. He's eager to learn and I have no doubt that this attitude, coupled with some natural talent, will result in him becoming a very accomplished masseur.
Casualrio was such a generous host. He made me welcome and set up a good space for us to exchange in. He massaged me first so that I could relax after my rather stressful day. He applied long, deep movements which were just the ticket as far as I was concerned. He's wrong to think that he got the better deal when we exchanged - as far as I'm concerned the swap was entirely equitable and I would be very happy to exchange with him again. Highly recommended.
gingerclimber and I began corresponding over 6 months ago but were unable to schedule a date which matched both our diaries until this week. It was worth the wait. It was most definitely worth the wait. I’m struggling to understand how someone can have such an excellent understanding of the human body without formal training. His touch is intuitive and he has acquired a plethora of advanced techniques for manipulating and caressing muscles and tendons. He made me feel relaxed and once he started his routine, he never broke his touch which in my mind shows sophisticated empathy with the recipient.
gingerclimber is rather modest about his own body, describing it as “average” in his profile. He is more athletic than this word implies. His active participation in sports such as climbing has developed his muscles well and it is a pleasure to work on his body. He is personable and genial. He is easy to talk to; a few moments in his company makes you feel very relaxed. This is important, as I think a good massage needs to transcend beyond just the physical experience. For me, it is as much about what happens in the mind and without question, gingerclimber hit all the spots.
Despite our absurd schedules, I sincerely hope we can arrange another exchange in the very near future and I highly recommend a massage exchange with gingerclimber.
From time to time you meet someone who throws the rule book out and shows you that there are other ways of doing things. timcrock definitely fits that description when it comes to bodywork. He starts unconventionally…but I don’t want to give the game away as the element of surprise is such an integral part of the experience. He understands touch, he understands pressure, he understands sensuality. The fact that he has no formal training is irrelevant as he clearly knows what he is doing. If you can maintain an open mind and be willing to experiment with new ways of doing things, I would strongly recommend an exchange with timcrock.
nat380 is a charming, genial and intelligent guy. He is well versed in a variety of massage techniques and it would be difficult to tell that he has not been formally trained. He gave me a very relaxing massage, alternating between firm pressure where needed, and relaxing stokes designed to send you half asleep.
After our massage we had time to relax and talk. This was a wonderful way to allow both of us to become grounded again and savour the afternoon's pampering. I would strongly recommend an exchange with nat380 and I'm looking forward to exchanging with him myself in the very near future.
xjz89 and I exchanged recently and it was a delightful and educational experience for me. I massaged him first and after a brief discussion of our preferences, he asked for a relaxing massage as that was what he needed after a long week at work. Several times during the massage he drifted to sleep and later said that was a good measure of just how relaxed he felt.
My needs were somewhat different. I suffer from tension and knots around my scapula and xjz89 identified these quickly and got to work on my trapezius, deltoideus and rhomboids to ease the knots and help me to relax. He has a sensitive approach and is clearly knowledgeable. He combines theory and technique brilliantly and I’m really looking forward to exchanging with him again to continue to extend my knowledge and, equally importantly, to have a thoroughly rewarding exchange. I recommend him highly.
