YogiBill Highly Recommended
Bristol, Rhode Island, United States of America
Arranging an exchange with YogiBill was extremely easy. He was very prompt with replies and communicated very effectively. Our session was at his location. It was clean, comfortable and his directions were perfect. The massage was seamless. His touch is very calming, relaxing, and I felt a strong connection to hi9m from the first time he placed his hands on my back. We had pleasant and very interesting conversation and I hope that we can exchange again very soon. Highly recommend YogiBill for a great session.

Florida45 Recommended
Cleveland, Ohio, United States
Well, better late than never. I had the pleasure of an exchange with Florida45 while visiting Cleveland on business. Serendipity was with us...as I emailed him as he was online and he was available for a trade the next evening!

And it was a lovely exchange, as well. He is very clean, friendly and conversational. His massage skills were relaxing and thorough and I woul recommend him at any time.

He even did this exchange with a recently broken toe, too!

Thanks for a great massage and conversation. I hope to return to Cleveland. If you are ever out my way, give me a shout!

Sorry to be so delayed with this...Our trade was early in September and done at my office in RI. Great session--For a non-professional, his touch was very good, his rhythm and pacing just right and to top it off, he is a super nice guy. I enjoyed our time together and hope that our paths will cross again so we can have a repeat!

Thanks for a great trade.

This was my first experience with a thai-yoga style massage. It was very different than your traditional western style massage. Done on a mat on the floor, the work both strong and gentle; it included lots of different positions and holds as well as a goodly amount of stretching.

N. did a nice job explaining what would happen, and what to expect. His touch was easy to receive and his explanations were very clear and concise. He regularly asked if I was comfortable with his touch, pressure and position. I have a back injury that he was trying to protect.

Overall, it was quite enjoyable. The session lasted about 90 minutes and N. explained that sessions could be as long as 4 hours if all the holds, positions and stretches are used! By the end of the session, I felt relaxed, centered and energized all at the same time.

I'll try this style of bodywork again. So if you're in the Chicagoland area (or visiting there), give this a try. You might just like it!

BlueIslandCouple Recommended
Burr Ridge, Illinois, United States of America
I had the opportunity to trade with BlueIslandCouple while visiting Chicago this weekend. Although they lived about 30 mins away, they were willing to come to my hotel as I did not have my own transportation. The trade was very easy to schedule; they were prompt, friendly and quite warm. We did an exchange with working two-on-one that was very enjoyable. While not professionals, they have a great touch, sense of rhythm and synchronicity. It was comfortable, soothing and relaxing, indeed. I look forward to future trades when I am brought back to Chicago.

Thanks, Guys.

irishchannel Highly Recommended
Phoenix, Arizona, United States
I thought that my review was submitted, and am truly sorry it hasn't appeared yet. I must have done something incorrectly. Nonetheless, I exchanged with irishman back in September and must say that it was a great experience. His touch was warm and healing; his personality quite open, honest and friendly. His smile is more engaging in person, too. While not a professional his techniques were precise, comfortable and blended his nurturing qualities and sensitive personality perfectly. I would exchange often if I were closer. Thanks, Irishman...hope to see you again soon.

U4EA Highly Recommended
Amherst, Massachusetts, United States
Snickets and I exchanged yesterday and it was a very pleasurable experience. His skills and presence were both strong and sensitive; he listened carefully to my specific requests and met them all easily. We did the exchange in my office, and while not his own personal space, he adapted easily and it was like he had worked there for a long time. He was clean, pleasant and a very good conversationalist. I would recommend him highly.

Thanks for the great session, Snickets.

I had an amazing massage exchange with Letgo. We exchanged email messages prior to our trade to learn more about each other and the work we do. His descriptions of his work were extremely accurate and he provided me with a very good massage.

His touch is very intuitive and genuine. His application of pressure appropriate at all times--firm when needed, lighter to help you relax and receive his work. He uses a nice blend of oil and lotion with just a hint of eucalyptus that keeps you alert and know what he is doing yet allows you deeply relax. In addition, he supports his work with heated packs to keep your muscles warm and lengthened.

I look forward to regular exchange with him.

NatureBoy Recommended
Portland, Oregon, United States of America
NatureBoy and I exchanged emails some time before my Seattle visit. He was going to be visiting the area as well. We were able to connect for one exchange and I'm glad that we did.

The trade was comfortable, casual; good conversation, good massage and overall a wonderful experience.

If you have the opportunity to trade with the NatureBoy, you should.
