What is Touch & Teach?
A Touch & Teach Session begins with me providing you with a personalized, professional massage in the comfort of your own home. During this time, I’ll focus on addressing any tension, muscle soreness, or areas of concern, using techniques designed to meet your specific needs.
Following the massage, I’ll guide you through a lesson tailored to your level of experience.
-
If you’re new to massage, I’ll teach you:
-
How to prepare for a massage, such as setting the table at the correct height, creating a relaxing atmosphere and mentally preparing to give a massage
-
Some basic anatomy and physiology, focusing on major muscle groups of the back body
-
Fundamental massage techniques, including how to apply the right amount of pressure and the correct posture to use when giving a massage
-
-
If you’ve had some experience or training in massage, I’ll offer feedback and advice to help you fine-tune your skills. You’ll have the chance to practice on me, or you can work on a willing partner or friend, and I’ll be there to offer support and guidance.
This hands-on learning approach is ideal for couples, housemates, or anyone interested in improving their massage abilities, whether for personal relaxation, to help loved ones, or to expand their knowledge of bodywork.
What are the benefits?
These sessions combine the immediate benefits of a professional massage with the long-term value of learning new skills:
-
Tailored Massage Treatment: Start with a personalized massage designed to relieve tension, soothe sore muscles, and promote relaxation, right in your own home.
-
Learn Basic Massage Techniques: Gain practical, hands-on skills that you can use to give relaxing, effective massages to others—whether you’re just starting or refining your techniques.

Hands-On Practice: Practice what you’ve learned in a relaxed, supportive environment, either on me or with a willing partner or friend.

How often should I book a session?
Touch & Teach Sessions can be a one-time experience or part of a more regular routine. If you’re looking to build and refine your massage skills, you may benefit from booking sessions every few weeks to practice new techniques and receive ongoing guidance. Alternatively, these sessions are also ideal as an occasional treat, combining a professional massage with the opportunity to learn something new.
Couples or housemates may want to book regularly to practice massage on each other, enhancing the care you can offer to your loved ones at home.
What to expect during a session
Here’s how a typical Touch & Teach Session works:
-
In-Home Massage Treatment: We’ll begin with a tailored massage session, where I’ll focus on relieving muscle tension, reducing stress, and addressing any specific concerns you have. This gives you the chance to relax and experience professional techniques firsthand.
-
Personalized Lesson: After your massage, we’ll move into the teaching portion of the session. If you’re new to massage, I’ll show you how to give a basic massage using simple, effective techniques. If you already have some experience, I’ll help you improve your skills, offering feedback and advice on pressure, hand positioning, and more.
-
Practice Session: You’ll have the opportunity to practice what you’ve learned. You can either work on me as I guide you through the process, or you can practice on a willing partner, friend, or housemate. I’ll provide ongoing feedback, helping you build confidence and refine your touch.
By the end of the session, you’ll have not only enjoyed a deeply relaxing massage but also gained practical skills that you can use in your everyday life.
