Interactive Massage and Bodywork Sessions
An Interactive Couple’s Massage Session or Workshop is like a four-handed massage (where one person receives a massage from two massage therapists at the same time) BUT your friend or partner is one of the people giving you the massage…with the very close guidance of your instructors…at about half of the cost of a normal four-hand massage! This is a really popular choice for couples who have attended one or more of our standard Couple’s Massage Workshops and want to take their massage to the next level.
Four-Hand Ultra Relaxation Massage
We will begin with the flows and intentions that you learned in the Couple’s Massage Workshop and then take your partner into deeper and deeper levels of relaxation. You will work in tandem with me, following my lead at first, and then we will take turns leading and following each other as you grow more confident. The goals being to give your partner the most relaxing massage experience of their life while you learn the intentions and techniques to do this on your own.
Four-Handed Fusion
After you have learned the basics of four-handed massage, it is time to try the four-handed fusion massage. This massage requires two massagers because it is the fusion between them, and then with the receiver that makes this experience so incredible. We start out pretty much as we do in the Ultra Relaxation Experience above, taking turns leading and following, but then we start to blend into one another so that our work feels more like one symbiotic person. Reacting to, with, around, and through each other. The energy, flow, and physical touch can be unlike anything you have ever experienced.
Turning The Tables...
There are many ways to change things up using the four-handed model. It is a great way for what we lovingly call “throuples plus”, people with two or more partners that want to learn how to all be involved with the massage at the same time or for a couple that wants to learn how to give a four-handed massage, you are welcome to bring a friend to practice on (or I am sure one of my therapists would sacrifice themselves to help you out!).
If you want to plan something fun, creative, and memorable for your special group, please call or email us soon to start the conversation.

This was a brilliant class to take!! Super professional and educational!! Even though there were many couples in the room, he was able to personalize each couples needs. He taught maneuvers that were very successful and easy to do. He definitely knows what he is doing!!

This workshop is fantastic – I highly recommend it to anyone interested in learning more about massage and/or who wants to share the gift of massage with a friend, family member, or loved one. The instruction Joe gave throughout the evening was thorough, easy-to-follow, and fun. The best part was his customized approach of teaching to his audience’s interests (instead of rattling off any kind of memorized lesson plan). I appreciated his attention and response to our requests, and his hands-on demonstration was a treat to watch (and receive!). His passion and knowledge is evident from the moment you meet him – he is truly a guru in his field.

My partner and I get regular massages and wanted to learn how to give each other massages in between the pro sessions. “Touch” is high on both of our love language profiles so we figured the workshop would be a perfect way to enhance our connection. Joe’s workshop provided us with a fun, engaging and highly effective forum to practice multiple techniques in an intimate classroom “lab” environment. His welcoming, warm demeanor, experienced facilitation and great insights on giving and receiving feedback from your partner all combined to create a truly unique and worthwhile learning experience. Post-workshop, we were provided with a thorough list of resources, including videos to help us remember and reinforce specific massage techniques. We feel well-supported and encouraged to keep practicing the power of touch together.

Joe not only gives excellent massages, he is the perfect person to run a couples workshop. He makes the evening so fun. My husband was hesitant to go to the workshop. He thought there would be a lot of uncomfortable moments, which there were none. In fact we came away very impressed with how Joe made everyone feel comfortable and how we all learned how to give a decent massage without becoming fatigued. My husband now is willing and able to give me a massage…not as good as Joe’s but at least my hubby’s is free.

An amazingly powerful experience for us as a couple that has been together for 46 years. This 3 hour session with Joe taught us a new way to nurture and please each other in an enlightening way. He put us at ease right away and the studio was very comfortable. This workshop is a must for couples who are dedicated to continuing to build their relationship in a passionate, nurturing, healthy way.
