My
Philosophy
of Massage

Welcome to Man Alive in Manchester & Media City where I offer a place for men to become more fully alive as they are opened up with energy through massage or Reiki in my experienced hands.
I discovered the magik and energy there is in man on man touch and massage. I found out what it can do and want to share that with you. I can treat aches and pains; relieve tension and stress held in muscles; induce deep relaxation; awaken and enliven the whole body; create a pleasurable and sensual experience and be a channel for healing. I certainly hope the benefits of time spent in this way are not just experienced during the massage but can feed into your wellbeing afterwards. It may also help you to get more in touch with your own body and feel more fully alive.
I have created a warm, homely, space with men in mind. Peace and calm fill the room to help ease all anxiety and stress away. In that relaxed state the intimate connection allows energy to flow through body, mind and spirit. I tailor the massage to your needs and requests. I work from home which is near Manchester City Centre, just outside Salford Quays, near Media City. If you come by car, parking is free and easy and on public transport the tram and bus stops are very close. My working time is flexible from early morning to late in the evening. Shower facilities are available before or after the massage if you want to use them.

Swedish Massage
I am fully trained in whole body Swedish Massage which is the basic western massage. It is a therapeutic massage which is de-stressing and relaxing but also tones up muscles and skin, releases tensions held in muscles and generally improves feelings of wellbeing. This combined with some deep tissue or myofascial release is what I suggest to those whose primary concerns are stress, aches and pains. Whole body massage lasts 1 hound I use coconut oil without and added fragrance. Where concern is about a limited part of the body half hour sessions can be booked. During Swedish massage the private parts are all kept covered and not touched.
Tantric Massages
Tantric Massages are an Eastern way and come from a different spirituality and philosophy to that in the West. In tantric massages we connect as energy bodies as well as physical bodies with energy centres, the Chakras that include our sexual energies. So these massages are energetic, spiritual and may be sensual. loving, healing or pleasuring. Massage offers one way into the transformative journey of Tantra and I am happy to be your guide on the start of the journey. All massages are given with energetic connection and begin with some form of honouring. I am happy to discuss this in detail. All massages will last at least 90 minutes and some would require much longer. everything will be clear with what the relevant charge is before we start.
Naturist Massage
My naturist massage as the name indicates is performewith both of us naked. Unlike Swedish massage in which body parts are uncovered bit by bit in the Naturist Massage the whole body is exposed and this allows the more holistic approach to the massage with longer sweeping strokes and more body to body contact. The connection with the whole body is enlivening, gives deep relaxation, energetic connection with a more sensual than therapeutic massage. It lasts an hour but a shortened version is possible for 30 minutes £40.
