To avoid any misconceptions as to what we offer and what you can expect, we are including some real questions and answers that have been asked of us. These FAQ's represent the bulk of questions most commonly asked and certainly do not include all the questions that come up. We have elaborated on the answers for greater clarity, but the wording of the questions is exact. Reading these might save us a bunch a time, and help you determine if what we do is for you.  

To get the best treatment, ask questions if there is anything you do not understand or is not covered here Specify your likes & dislikes prior to beginning the Massage Session.  You should not eat for one hour prior to the massage nor consume alcohol prior to you Session. We would also ask that you leave your "attitude" at home or turn it off while you are in our Studio. 

We would ask that you leave your jewelry at home or take it off prior to the Session so that is does not interfere with the Massage and that we do not get oil on it. Our studio is a no fragrance zone, both artificial (it is best to avoid wearing heavy colognes) and natural (an unwashed body) fragrances. Please keep the smells to a minimum.

Q: Are you registered
Massage Therapists?  
Yes,  we are both registered massage therapists in the State of Texas. Our Registrations are on display in our Studio. There are people claiming to be registered and offering Massage, that are not registered, we know, because we have talked to several of them.  We have our Registration Certificates on display in our Studio.  Being Registered means that you know the anatomy (structure) of the body and the physiology (functions) of the body and understand how it all works. This is very important in order to make a massage beneficial to the recipient. Beyond that it is also necessary to know anatomy and physiology so that the Therapist does not do any harm to the client. People who receive a Massage from anyone who is not knowledgeable are putting themselves at risk of injury. We each have had 350 hours of training and have taken and passed the State exam.

Q: Do I need to make an appointment?    
Yes,  you must make an appointment. We do not take walk-ins. We take appointment 7 days a week beginning at
11:30 am, every hour and a half,  the last appointment beginning at 8:30 pm.  Appointments are booked every hour and a half so that we can offer both 60 minute Sessions and 90 minute Sessions. If you make an appointment,  it is important that you try to be on time. You will have a 90 minute "time slot" for your Session. So if you have booked a 90 minute Session and if you are late you may not get the entire hour and a half.    We do not go beyond the 90 minute "time slot" if we have a Session scheduled after yours. If there is no appointment following yours, you will get the entire 60 or 90 minutes.

Q: Do you take early morning  (before 11:30 am) appointments?
Yes, however only Estevan is available before 
11:30am and prior notice is always required 
(you must make the appointment the day before.
                                                                                       
return to top of page
                                  
Q: How far in advance should I book? 
Please try to plan ahead- 24 hours if possible- to guarantee the appointment you desire. The best way to reach us is by web page in the section marked "appointments" or by phone at 713 802 0439.  We generally do not answer the phone after 10:30pm unless we are taking late appointment that evening or before 9:00am. If you need to call before 9:00 am please leave a message and we will return your call or email.

We are delighted that our regular Client base is growing as people discover us and discover that we are very good Massage Therapists. Many of you are coming to us on a regular basis. Also many Clients are now booking appointments days in advance. This makes it more difficult for you guys that wait until the last minute to call for an instant appointment.  These guys might just be out of luck half of the time.
                     
Same day appointments may also be available, but your choice of time, or Therapist may already be taken. Those of you who plan ahead are almost guaranteed of desired date, time, and Therapist. If we have openings when you call,  we will gladly make last minute appointments; however, afternoon appointments, especially 4:00pm,  5:30pm &  7:00pm are the most popular times of the day and they tend to go first. So if you plan ahead by a day or two you are much more likely to get the time slot that you want.

Q: What happens if I am late?  
If you are going to be late for your appointment, it is very important that you call us and let us know. We WILL NOT
GUARANTEE that we will hold your appointment if you are more than 15 minutes late and do not call us to inform us of your
running late. We will try our best to work with you if you call and inform us of your running late. 

Q: What happens if I don't show up for my appointment?  
If you make an appointment and do not show for that appointment without calling to cancel, do not expect for us to take your appointment again. There is no excuse for not calling to cancel, unless you are hit by a bus! You would be angry with us if we did not show for your massage! 

Q:  I just decided I need a massage, why can I not get an appointment right now?
As of now, we offer 54 massage appointments per week. However we can only work on one person at a time. If you cannot get
an appointment, it is because you have not thought ahead, we never have all 54 openings filled. For those of you who wait
until 30 minutes before the time you want for an appointment, you have a 50-50 chance of getting the desired time. The early 
bird gets the worm every time !!

Q: What is the address of your studio?
This question is asked of us almost daily. We do not give our physical address to you unless you have made an appointment. Our Studio is in our residence and we do not want those individuals ringing the door bell at all hours of the day and night thinking they can just walk in and get a massage. Besides that, you do not want the door bell ringing when we are working on you? The general location of our Studio can be found here. There are those people who have no sense of what is proper, and call us at all hours of the night and those very same people would be ringing the door bell as well if we were to publish our address.

Q: Is it proper to tip? 
A: Many people do tip their Therapist, just as you would tip your waiter. It is entirely up to you to make the decision as to tip or not to
tip and the amount of any tip is up to you. We always appreciate tips.  

Q: What is the customary tip for a massage therapist or spa treatment?
A:
Tipping is customary, a normal tip for a spa service ranges from 15%-20% and is based on how well you enjoyed the experience. 
The normally tipping range falls between $10 and $30 for a massage session, but your decision to tip and how much is personal, and entirely up to you. 

Tips are always welcomed and appreciated.

      what to expect                                    
                                                                                                                  

Q: What can I expect to happen in a Massage Session?   
A: This is a strictly Professional full Body Massage; You may place limits or restrictions, if you desire, on what parts you want excluded.  Some may have problem areas to avoid or tickle issues, etc.   All of our Massages are performed with expert professional care. They are therapeutic, relaxing, Professional Massage Sessions, and you should not think that a Session will ever be anything other than a Professional Massage. 
We do offer several options of types of Massage Sessions available, including Swedish
or Classic European, PNF Stretch Sessions, Tandem or 4 hand Sessions, Hand and Foot reflex Sessions, as well as other Spa Treatments including hot wax, salt glow exfoliation and dry scrub exfoliation Sessions.  Some of the services may be mixed in a single Session.  Call for more details.  

Q: I've got a cold, will a massage be a good thing for me?
A: No, in fact if you even think you have a cold, please wait to make an appointment. Respect our health and the health of our other clients and wait at least ONE WEEK after your last symptoms disappear. If you feel ill before an appointment, just call us and cancel (but please try to make sure you do it before 10PM the night before if at all possible). We will understand, and appreciate it. Oh, and try ZICAM NASAL COLD REMEDY...It really works!

Q: Can I expect to receive the full time I asked for ?
A: Yes, if you book an hour session you will receive a full hour of massage. We know that there are some other Therapist the charge for an hour and only give you 45 minutes or less and we believe that is wrong. If you pay for an hour, you will get a full hour of massage from us. Just keep in mind though, that we may have other massage appointments scheduled, so if you are extremely late, and we have another session scheduled, your session will not be extended into the next appointment's time. To get the full time you schedule you should be on time. 

Q: I’ve been in a car accident and my neck and back are really sore. Should I get a massage?
A: Anytime you’re involved in a serious accident of any sort, you should first check with your doctor if you’re planning on getting a massage. 
Massage cannot cure injuries, but it can be an excellent way to help treat pain from auto accidents, but you should be thoroughly checked to ensure that you 
have no herniated discs or skeletal injuries before a massage therapist works on you. Also, make sure you explain your pain and injuries to your masseur 
before he begins to work on you, and tell him if you feel pain or discomfort during the massage.

Q: I’m diabetic. Is it okay to book a massage?
A: Advanced diabetes can cause a decrease in circulation to the extremities. Massage can help revitalize circulation. It can also directly affect blood sugar 
levels, which can be both good and bad. Consult your doctor before booking a massage, and make sure your therapist knows you’re diabetic.Is there a bad 
time to book a massage?
You shouldn’t book a massage when you’re sick. Massage causes a release of toxins from the muscles into the bloodstream, and if your immune system is
already under attack from sickness, this can make you feel worse. If you’ve just had a major operation, ask your doctor before booking a massage. Likewise, 
if your immune system is compromised due to medication or disease (like diabetes or HIV) you should also consult your doctor before booking a massage.

Q: Is it ok for a person to make pleasurable noises while being massaged ?
A: We do not censor our clients as far as what sounds they may make. It is not unusual for a client to groan or make sounds while being worked on by us. 

Q: Does the massage therapist talk during the massage or is there just silence ?
A: We do not talk during the massage session. There will be relaxing music during the session. We feel that talking detracts from the intended relaxation of a massage and it distracts us the Therapist from our concentration on performing a good massage.

Q: Are you guys discrete? 
A: Yes, of course we are discrete, why would we be anything other than discrete. 
There is an unspoken confidentiality between Therapist and Client.

 

      client consultations                              
                                                                                                                        

Q: Is there a consultation prior to my massage?
A: Yes, we do require all clients, on their first visit, to complete a very brief form that is information about your recent illnesses, injuries, and a brief medical history. The information is confidential for our eyes only. This is for YOUR protection and for OUR protection, and it is required of all Registered Massage Therapists by the State of Texas.    Yes,  we are aware that many other Therapist do not do this,  but THEY are violating the law. 
At this time we will have a brief consultation with you about the session and the work to be done on you. This consultation is only on the first visit and takes about 2 minutes of your time. If you come for your appointment, and do not complete the form or refuse to complete the form, we will NOT be able to provide you your massage.
                                                  Consultation Documentation required by the State:
Therapists in the State of Texas are required by law to provide an initial consultation to each client prior to the first massage
session and obtain the signature of the client on a consultation document. 

This document must include:

          return to top of page

Q: What can you do for a bad back?  
A: We do not specifically claim to cure anything although, many times, some physical symptoms just disappear with one or more sessions. We also will consult with our clients to discuss problems that might persist,  to help identify the cause and determine a remedy. If we feel that you need help beyond our level of expertise, or we do not believe we can help you,  we will refer a client to a specialist or therapist  that may be better qualified to meet you specific problem. 

                                             

                     

Q: Do you offer deep tissue work? 
A: That depends on what your concept and definition of "deep tissue" might be. Our touch is definitely firm to moderately deep and you will know that you have had a massage after you get off of our tables. However if you are looking for pain, bruises, elbows, and wanting someone to make you scream,  then you should look elsewhere. We don't do any of that on our tables, but we can refer you to a therapist that will make you scream.  We do have some deep tissue training and as I have said we definitely have a very firm touch and we do also offer PNF stretch sessions that work deeper layers of muscle tissue. 

Q: Do you beat on me? 
A: No, neither of us uses tapotement (hacking, chopping, or beating) in our Swedish Massage. Some Therapist may do that technique, but we do not. We use stroking, compression, kneading, friction, and some finger pressure for most of a Swedish Session. Each of us has our own individual style and techniques and our individual Massages will be quite different from one others. Neither of us does a "fluff" Massage,  both of us have a firm to very firm touch. We have heard feedback of some horror stories of what clients have gotten from some other Massage Therapist, and we are confident that will not be your experience with either of us.

Q: Do you use oil?         
A: Yes, we use an unscented coconut oil that is good for your skin. We also towel the oil off of you after the Session.  A shower is available for your use if you feel the need to shower. Shiatsu, and Sports/P N F Stretch Sessions are done without oil, unless they are done in a combination Session including a Massage. We prefer to use our own coconut oils because there is no scent and the viscosity is exactly right for Swedish massage, plus it is good for your skin and will not irritate it. So please do not bring any special or scented oils or lotions and ask us to use them even though they may be great, they may not be great for our massage techniques.

Q: Do you use draping or cover me during the massage? 
A: Draping is at the option of the client. It is not required as long as it is agreeable with the client and the Therapist. We prefer to not use draping during a massage. Draping impedes the flow of a good massage, especially our Tandem/4 hand massage,  and also burns your actual massage time, so you get less actual massage if we are having to deal with draping and undraping body parts. If the client does requires cover,  it is only a very small towel. We cannot and will not do the Tandem Massage with underwear remaining on your body. If you have issues with being unclothed, the Tandem Massage is NOT the Massage for you.  Most of our client prefer to not be covered during their massage.

Q: If you don't drape or cover me,  will I get cold during the massage?
A: Not a chance of getting cold!  Our table is heated top and bottom. We have added a 1500 watt electric heater above the table and the table itself is covered with an electric heating pad. So you will stay toasty warm top and bottom during your entire massage.

Q:  How often should I get a massage?   
A: Our body is a marvelous machine, that is constantly being abused by stressful daily lives, toxins, and pollutants. That is why it is important to increase blood and oxygen circulation with routine, thorough, therapeutic, and relaxing massages. The benefits of massage are cumulative, if supported by regular maintenance treatments. Optimally, "regular maintenance" translates to weekly or biweekly or monthly sessions depending on your lifestyle and stress level.  We offer both 3, 5 and 7 session series packages at substantial savings to help make massage a simple and affordable way to stay healthy. 

In a "Stress Emergency",  Swedish Massage or Classic European full-body Massage is an easy and pleasant coping strategy that requires nothing more from you than to let go and receive.  Massage does not just feel good,  it also reduces the heart rate and blood pressure,  increases blood circulation and lymph flow,  relaxes muscles,  and improves range of motion. It is great for relaxation and refreshment.
Massage is a great "treat" for those special occasions or a welcomed "relief" for troublesome aches. 

Q; Who really needs a massage?  
A: Anyone who is interested in maintaining a healthy lifestyle, experiencing new methods of relaxation or alleviating the stress, aches and pains that are a part of everyday life. The benefits of therapeutic massage are widely recognized.
Professional massage improves your health and well being by releasing muscle tension, improving circulation, reducing the effects of stress, and can even alleviate pain. Massage therapy is often used to compliment chiropractic treatments, speed recovery from injuries, help problems associated with postural dysfunction, and in conjunction with activities such as yoga, pilates and weight training.

Q: What massage style is right for me? 
A: A brief consultation will help determine the type of massage therapy required to meet your particular needs. Whether you prefer one specific style of massage or a combination of different treatments, personalizing each session is an important part of attaining the best massage possible.
You can choose to relax with a basic Swedish massage or try a more invigorating experience like an exfoliation spa treatment. Some people prefer a much more specific focus certain areas of your body. One day you may find that you will want to experiment with a new massage style or spa treatment, while another day you will simply select your favorites and enjoy.

Q: Why do I get thirsty after a massage? 
A: A good Massage is draining the interstitial fluids from your muscle tissue into your lymphatic system which ends up in your kidneys, bladder and ultimately down the toilet. Toxins are being removed from your tissue during a Massage and are in the fluids that end up in your kidneys and bladder . It is important to drink plenty of water after a Massage to flush your kidney of the toxins that have been removed from your muscle tissue.  

Q: What are the aftereffects of a Massage?
A: Some clients may experience certain aftereffects following a Massage and you should be aware and that this is no cause for alarm. Usually the effects are felt following the first or second Massage, or if you do not get frequent Massages. Some people may feel a slight headache, upset stomach, and nausea, or the feeling they get with the onset of a cold. There may also be some soreness if concentrated work is done on specific areas and muscles. Such reactions are due to an increase in metabolic waste materials in the circulatory system. The particular symptoms the client experiences depends on the organs that are being overtaxed. The intensity of the massage movements should be limited on a first Massage or if you received infrequent Massages until the you have built up more tolerance. These symptoms should be short lived and drinking plenty of water following a massage is always strongly advised to flush the toxins released from your muscles out of your system as quickly as possible and keep them from being reabsorbed by the muscle tissues.

     Tandem   or   4  Handed  Massage                          
                                                                                                                                                           

Q: What is a Tandem or 4 hand Massage?
A: The most frequent question asked is what is a 4 hand or Tandem Massage.  More than a massage, tandem massage is an experience. Four hands massage your body, sometimes in unison, sometimes apart. The nervous system stops tracking the motion and settles into profound, deep relaxation and peace. Basically it is a Swedish Massage or Classic European full-body Massage performed by 2  Massage Therapists working together doubling the amount of muscle  being  massaged.   Jeff and  Estevan have developed a UNIQUE Tandem or 4 handed Massage technique that is very invigorating. Our Tandem Session is a well coordinated performance designed to double your massage pleasure yet not be stimulus  overload. 
Much of the Massage is in synchronized movement,  however not all of the Session is in sync. . . . .  
The feet,  the back,  and the head,  face,  and scalp are areas that are not Massaged in Tandem.  These areas are done separately by one Therapist,  while another area is being massaged by the other Therapist at the same time.   For example your feet would be massaged at the same time that your back is being massaged.  Your arms, legs, glutes, and hands are massaged by both Therapists, one Therapist on each leg, glute, arm, and hand at the same time.   It is very difficult to explain the experience and sensation of a Tandem or 4 hand Massage,  without actually experiencing a Session for yourself.
We prefer to perform our Tandem or 4 handed Sessions without draping. The flow of the Massage is compromised and cannot be easily maintained with the obstructions of draping. The Tandem massage does not work if we the Masseurs must deal with draping. If the client does requires cover,  it is only a very small (15" x 24") towel. We cannot and will not do the Tandem Massage with underwear or other items of clothing remaining on.  If you have issues with being unclothed,  this is NOT the Massage for you.

Q: What will it feel like?
A: Like losing yourself. Like letting go. Like the ultimate pampering. Decadent.

Q: Tandem sounds sexual. Will this be a sexual experience?
A: Although a tandem massage often feels sensual, we do not provide escort services or sexual services. Arousal is a natural part of being touched and nothing to be ashamed of. We encourage you to fully let go and enjoy whatever you are experiencing.

Q: Will I be fully nude?
A: It is easiest for us to work on your body without a drape. However, we can definitely work with a drape if you would like. You should feel completely comfortable.

your first massage

Our Tandem Massage is not the appropriate Session for specific isolated bodywork.  
If you need certain areas of your body worked more than others, it is better to get a Massage
from either Jeff or Estevan 
individually. 
A solo Massage can easily be adjusted and modified to meet your specific needs unlike the Tandem Massage.
Our Tandem Session is a well coordinated performance routine that we DO NOT vary from to concentrate on 
specific body parts requiring special attention.

Q: How did you guys learn 4 Handed Massage?
Our Tandem Session is our very own creation and development, and definitely unlike any session offered by other Therapists.
We trained at the same Massage School and were taught by the same teachers,  we partnered during Massage Training, and have partnered through out our practice, and we have performed literally hundreds of Tandem Sessions. This level of experience gives Jeff and Estevan the credentials to qualify as the best of the best in the Tandem Massage field.  Others Therapists may offer a Tandem Sessions,  but just having 4 hands massage your body does not necessarily make for a great Massage experience. Unless the two Therapist know each others Massage style intimately and have performed  Tandem  Sessions  many times as a team, you may get a less than pleasant  massage experience.  A truly good Tandem Session is carefully coordinated,  not just massage chaos! 

 
Q: What if I get a Tandem Massage the first time and then I just want a solo or 2 hand Session thereafter?
Many of our clients start with a Tandem Session and then choose to come back to either Jeff or Estevan on a regular basis. Some of our clients even alternate between Jeff and Estevan for the variety of Touch that this will afford. Jeff and Estevan each have their own  unique style of Massage. Their individual styles are different from each others and also from the Tandem Massage Sessions which is a collaboration and combination of their individual techniques.

Q: What do you look like?
A: Really now!  Is this important to a good Professional Massage?  The physical appearance of the therapist has nothing to do with the quality of your Massage.  We do not ask YOU what you look like!  Besides you will be face down for most of the Session and will not see anything. However if it is that important to you images of us can be found here.

Q: Are you gay or bi?     
A: A person’s sexuality is his or her own business.  Sexuality is not an issue.  We treat everyone with the same dignity and respect they deserve without making an issue out of ones preferences or physical stats. We also expect to be treated with 
respect and courtesy by you. If you are gay, bi or str8 or combinations of the above or don't even know, that's of no concern to us.  So, whatever you are, or we are, makes little difference in the quality of your Massage Session, or the enjoyment and benefits received from the experience. 

Q: Are your clients only gay males?  
A: Not at all.  We have clients of all persuasions, straight, bi, gay, and undetermined. We have clients that are married with kids. We do not care what your orientation might be, our only concern is that you be a gentleman and are respectful to us while in our Studio, and come to us for a quality professional massage in a comfortable environment. 

Q: Why do you work only on men?
A: Early on in our practice,  we did offer our services to both men and women. However, we encountered many problems, and  we decided that we needed to offer our services to just one gender because of several issues. The issues ultimately became one of comfort, both ours and our clients. Our studio is very open (a two story space with a loft arrangement)  and we have two tables and two massage areas, both very open to each other, making mixed gender clientele difficult.  We may have two sessions occurring at the same time, making privacy a problem.  A second reason is the draping issue.  We prefer our clients to be without draping or covering because dealing with cover is awkward, interferes with the flow of the massage,  especially the Tandem Massage,  and generates additional laundry.  Most men (99%) prefer not to be draped (some demand not to be draped) and are comfortable without covering and most women prefer to be draped, again a matter of comfort and privacy. (Of course if the client needs or requires draping, and we do have one or two that do, we will drape the client.)  These are the two primary factors that determined our gender policy. We do reserve the right to limit our clientele. Gender is by no means the only factor that determines whether we will work on a person. Just remember you are a guest in our Studio and we do not have to tolerate abuse of any kind.

Q: I am married and/or Str8, have a significant other and must be discreet , and wonder what it would be like to experience a Male2Male Massage?
A: Not unusual at all. If for what ever reasons you feel a need to be discrete,  this is a great place to experience masculine touch that most all males desire. We provide about as comfortable, safe and discreet an environment as you will ever find. We understand the need for discretion that some men seen to require, and no one will ever know that you ever came to us for a Massage Session. Our records contain the absolute minimum information and are absolutely confidential. However we do required all first time clients to give us basic medical history as required by the State of Texas
As far as safe goes, cleanliness is tops on our list. You're always assured clean linens, towels, highest quality in oils and products etc. We do have shower facilities available for your use. And we are very healthy and want to stay that way.  If you're wanting to experience male touch and the satisfaction it can bring, then by all means this is the place to start. 
We have worked with hundreds of males just like you that require the touch of another male, coupled with the caring, and the closeness of just being with a male, while simultaneously feeling completely at ease.  And no need to be nervous, chicken, or timid about making an appointment for a Massage Session.

           Our  skills  and  expertise                              
                                                                                                                                                  

Q: How do I know if you are good?
A: You don't.  But,  we are!!   In fact readers of TEXAS TRIANGLE magazine voted us runner up to best massage in Houston in 2004.  And we don't know if you will be a good a client, one with which we will enjoy an ongoing relationship. There has to be trusting among men someplace and we put our trust in you,  and you have to put your trust in us. We are both experienced Professionals and we are both very good Massage Therapists. We have completed 350 hours of training and taken and passed the State of Texas examination for Registered Massage Therapist. We have massaged literally hundreds and hundreds of Clients. In addition to that we have taken 6 hours of continuing education each year since becoming Registered Massage Therapists. But if you still doubt us, you can see what some clients have said about their experience with us by reading their comments.
All of these are actual comments we have received by email from clients.

          what not to expect                                            
                                                                                                                                                  

Q: Do you take special requests?
A: Yes. Some requests are considered; however, depending on the request, not every request can be honored.  We would have to discuss them prior to the beginning the Massage Session. If your request is ridiculous, please don't bother to ask. ( you should know what is a ridiculous request )  If it is reasonable and it is something we can do to make your session better we will discuss it with you prior to the session during our consultation. (example, you prefer a certain type of music or you really want an area of you back worked on more, or something similar.) We do get a lot of stupid requests and ridiculous question, especially on telephone calls, and they are always rejected.

Q: Can I bring my own oil or lotion for you to use?
A: Please do not bring any scented oils or lotions!  Both of us have very sensitive noses and our sinuses are easily aggravated. We prefer using our unscented coconut oil ONLY because it has no smell and the viscosity is exactly right for Massage.  Our coconut oil  WILL NOT irritate or harm your skin in any way and actually it is very good for your skin.   

Q: Can I bring my (boyfriend/girlfriend/wife) to watch?

A: No! Getting a Massage is a private and personal experience and we do not "perform" in front of others. We do have a waiting area with television and stereo if needed for a companion,  but watching the Massage Session is not permitted.

return to top of page


Q: I think I might get an erection. What if that happens?

A: Who ever said that was a crime?  Here you are free to be your male self (as long as you behave yourself),  without embarrassment or judgment from us.  Just relax and enjoy your massage.  We are not disturbed or embarrassed if that does happen during a Massage Session. This is a natural reaction to being touched.  Some, but not all, of our clients do get an erection at some point during their Massage Sessions.

Q: Can I touch you during the massage?
A: No! Touching the Therapist is not a part of a Professional Massage. Our suggestion is you just lay back and enjoy and 
let us guide your Massage. The client should be totally passive 
during the entire massage session. The only exception to that would be in a Stretch Session which requires client participation. 


Q: Are you nude during the massage? 
   

A: No!  We wear shorts or sweats, depending on the weather,  the entire time. Some clients bodies have more dense muscle tissue than others and are more difficult to Massage, so when the weather is warm,  we may work without a shirt because we can work up a sweat during longer sessions or when working on bodies with dense muscle tissue. 

Q: Can I get you off during the massage?
A: No! That is not the purpose of a Professional Massage.  We do not want to be touch by our clients. Best you just relax
and lay there enjoy your Massage Session and let us do all 
the work. You should only come to us for your health benefit, relaxation, and pleasure, not ours. When you are touched properly,  it is this change in energy flow that puts you in 
balance with life physically,  mentally,  and spiritually and produces the prolonged wonderful after feeling.

Q: How big is yours?
A: Really now! Is this important? Are you that shallow?

          We do not ask you for your stats and our client requirements are simple. 

If you are male,  are a nice person and a gentleman, and are 18 or over, and respectful,  you are welcome. Your sexual orientation, age, body build, race, etc., is of little concern. We do not discriminate or single out anyone unless you give us reasons to do so.  You can feel comfortable with us no matter what you are or think you are.  Everyone is welcome on our tables for an enjoyable Massage Session you will remember.  The only other exceptions to this would be if you have a contraindication that might cause you harm if a massage were to be performed or if you were to exceed the rated weight limits of our massage tables. We do ask and expect that your body be clean and free of odors and not be contagious with a cold and or the flu.  
 
However, if you visit us once and are an unpleasant person, aggressive, disrespectful, rude, smell foul, or cross the line in any way, do not expect for us to book you for a second appointment. We reserve the right to refuse our services to anyone. Just remember that you are a guest in our home and we reserve the right to not give you another appointment if we feel uncomfortable with you in any way,  just as you have the right to not come back if you are not happy with us or do not like your Massage. 

You will not be asked any personal or probing questions. We do require all of our clients to complete a simple client medical history form that takes about one or two minutes prior to your initial Massage Session. This information is completely confidential and is for your protection and ours. If you do not want to complete the information asked of you we will not do the Massage. At this time we will have a brief consultation with you about your medical history and the massage session.  It is important for your Therapist to know your medical history so that you will not be injured in any way during a Massage Session.

          Be Touched - You Deserve It!                               
          So,  why not treat yourself to the experience of being touched and then feeling free 
          and at ease with yourself.  The mere act of touching can leave a marked and positive change 
          in your life energy pattern. And when you are touched properly,  it is this change in energy 
          flow that puts you in balance with life physically,  mentally,  and spiritually and produces the 
          prolonged wonderful after feeling.

This work has taught us that the one thing missing from the lives of virtually every male is touch. 
We have a touch deprivation crisis in our society. Touch is virtually non-existent in the lives of 
most all males. For whatever reason,  males never seem to have received touch from their fathers,  
mothers or anyone else. Even married males are touch starved.  

Being touched in just the right way can
have the most profound impact that can penetrate 
into your very core of existence and leave your entire body and spirit filled with a glowing warm 
feeling that can last for days. Our Massage Sessions can correct touch deprivation crisis and 
you will not be touch starved when you leave.

why not treat yourself to the experience of being touched?                                             
Many clients tell us the feeling remains with them for days and this can be explained because 
of the magnificent and strangely powerful mysterious human energy that flows between two 
people when they are properly and sensually connected. One client in particular who lives in 
another city in Texas and visits us on a regular basis say that since he has been coming to us 
everything in his life has improved, his sleep, his sex life, and generally 
he feels better physically, and mentally.

      Your Attire                                           
                                                                                                                   

Q: Will I be fully nude?
A: It is easiest for us to work without a drape. However, we can definitely work with a drape if you would like. You should feel completely comfortable.

Q: Do you use draping or cover me during the massage? 
A: Draping is at the option of the client. It is not required as long as it is agreeable with the client and the Therapist. We prefer to not use draping during a massage. Draping impedes the flow of a good massage, especially our Tandem/4 hand massage,  and also burns your actual massage time, so you get less actual massage if we are having to deal with draping and undraping body parts. If the client does requires cover,  it is only a very small towel. We cannot and will not do the Tandem Massage with underwear remaining on your body. If you have issues with being unclothed, the Tandem Massage is NOT the Massage for you.  Most of our client prefer to not be covered during their massage.

Q: If you don't drape or cover me,  will I get cold during the massage?
A: Not a chance of getting cold!  Our table is heated top and bottom. We have added a 1500 watt electric heater above the table and the table itself is covered with an electric heating pad. So you will stay toasty warm top and bottom during your entire massage.

The clothing of choice of you during your Massage Session is normally none at all (nude), 
however, you may modify that by request. We can always keep you covered if you prefer.  However, cover or 
draping does restrict the flow of the Massage and that is why we prefer no draping during the Massage Sessions.
Draping in a Tandem Massage does not work, therefore if you want to be covered and are getting a Tandem Massage,
we will use a very small towel to cover you.
We would ask that you leave your jewelry at home or take it off prior to the Session so that is does not interfere with the
Massage and that we do not get oil on it. Our studio is a no fragrance zone, both artificial (cologne) and natural (unwashed)
fragrances. Please keep the smells to a bear minimum.
