Massage in London (meet Sasu)

 

Hello I am Sasu I live in Surrey, outside London U.K. and have been a practicing Deep Tissue and Swedish Massage Therapist for 20 years. I combine massage with Kinesology and Reiki. I discovered the gift of my healing hands and intuitive nature while living in Morocco working in the hospitality business in 1988. I did my training in Aberdeen, Scotland in 1994 which is also where I learnt my English.

I used to work in the film industry as a Massage Therapist and am looking forward to getting back into working with thespians and performers and the world of back stage.

I was born in France and speak fluent French, Spanish and English and a little German. I love to travel and visit Argentina annually where I also go skiing. 
I am passionate about motorbikes but haven’t managed to put my massage table on the back yet? Rock music swings my life since my teens.
I love dancing particularly to music with a good beat and ski to Dire Straits!

I am available for tours and festivals and looking forward to practice my skills on you. Just email me and write "SASU/LONDON" in the subject line to book me: info@drdot.com

Feedback:

12/04/08: "I wanted to let you know that Sasu is a FANTASTIC new addition to your team. She has AMAZING hands, and a highly intuitive touch. This is the best DotBot massage I've had yet.

I think Sasu was not expecting the musician schedule – we had her waiting for a couple of hours with no work, and then everyone came at once! Sasu, just so you know – that can happen. Musicians can be unpredictable 🙂

Sasu, thank you for coming down – everyone said how wonderful your massages were, and we appreciated your time. See you next time in London!

And, Dot, thanks as always for the great massages 🙂

Massage in Toronto (meet Dina )

My name is Dina and I was born and raised in Toronto, Canada. I spent most of my youth involved in competitive figure skating only to discover later on another true passion… snowboarding! My education as a massage therapist began early in my constant attempts to try and heal my own injuries.

I’ve been practicing the art of massage in a clinical setting for over ten wonderful years. To have the opportunity to help assist clients manage, reduce and heal painful injuries and/or discomfort has been a very liberating and educational experience.

I’m a huge fan and practitioner of Myofascial & Trigger Point massage, a deeper, corrective type of soft tissue release combined with specific on-table body stretches. On the other hand I am just as inclined to provide a lighter more rhythmical massage experience geared towards the stress-laden muscle tension created primarily by our taxed out nervous systems. I incorporate essential oils in most treatments drawing upon my 6 years as a Certified Clinical Aroma-therapist. In addition, I am a Registered Massage Therapist and certified in LaStone (hot stone) and Bamboo massage.

Email me if you want to book me (put DINA/TORONTO) in subject line: info@drdot.com

Massage in Raleigh, North Carolina

 

Meet Rae, the newest member to the Dr. Dot massage team down South:

 

"Having a chance to blend 2 of my biggest passions is a dream come true, and I am ecstatic to be on Dr. Dot’s team!!  
 
I was raised by hippie parents on all the right music—Beatles, Zeppelin, Moody Blues, etc.  Today you can find everything from Aimee Mann to James Brown to U2 in my collection.  I am a music fiend!  Much of my youth was spent watching MTV (when they still played music), and I mastered every Janet Jackson routine and Motley Crue drumbeat there was.  I decided early on that I was going to either be a rock star, or marry one.  

The night I met my husband, he was playing guitar onstage.  Trying to impress him, I offered to massage his hands, even though I had no training.  I guess I did well, since we’re still together!  Soon after we met, I chose to leave social work behind for massage school.  My first day, a fellow student let me practice on her.  She told me it felt like I’d already been doing massage for years, and I knew then I had found my calling.  I spent the next 18 months learning massage, yoga, reiki, and anything else I could get my hands on.  

Looking back, it now seems obvious I was meant to do healing work.  Growing up in an affectionate family taught me power of touch, and it seems from an early age I had a natural gift of intuition.  Using massage and energy work enabled me to heal my body and mind when I developed problems that doctors and medications couldn’t fix.  Now I live a full life without any meds, not even a multivitamin!  It is so important to me to continue sharing this gift with others, to help them take charge of their health.  

My approach is intuitively and holistically based, treating your whole being.  I consider myself a channel, working where my hands are guided.  Each session is tailored to your specific needs, and I can provide anything from a soothing Swedish to an intense Trigger Point session.  If you need healing and I’m not available in person, I can send you Reiki as well.  

Chances are, I’ll be at your show anyway, so it would be an honor to have you book me: info@drdot.com  (put "for CHANDRA/NC" in subject line).

 

Thanks, Rae"

Dr. Dot

 

 "Hi!  I’m Kim!  Born and raised in New York City, I have been a professional massage therapist for the past 4 years.

I started my massage career out in Los Angeles after leaving the daily grind of a major record label.   My love for music led me to combining my talents (and loves), music and massage.  I started out massaging professional athletes at a high end spa.  Then, two years ago I went out with The Bravery doing merch and massage.  It was the perfect opportunity to combine my loves. 

Now based in the NY/NJ area, I specialize in Deep Tissue and sports massage.  All my massages include a combination of stretches, Swedish strokes, Shiatsu, and deep muscle work to provide my clients with the optimal experience.  I have been trained in:

•    Deep Tissue
•    Sports Massage
•    Shiatsu
•    Reflexology
•    Pregnancy Massage
•    Acupressure
•    Trigger Point

I look forward to working with you and your bands.  And of course, I tour!

Peace & Love,
Kim"
