I am Carlos, creator of Ananda Massage and a massage therapist.
I came to massage after going through a personal journey that led me to question many of the ideas with which we learn to relate to our body, our image, our desire and our way of seeking well-being.
During that process I understood something that is now an essential part of my way of working: our body is not something we have to learn to hide, control or use to get approval.
It is the place from which we experience much of our life, and learning to feel it and inhabit it naturally can greatly change our relationship with ourselves and, consequently, with others.
My own experience also taught me to distinguish between simply touching a body and, in addition to contact, truly connecting with another person.
For me, that difference is fundamental.
That's why I created Ananda: to offer a professional, comprehensive and sensitive massage in which contact, pleasure, relaxation and sensuality can be part of the same experience, always with respect and without turning anyone's body into an object.
I'm not a psychologist, nor do I offer therapy. And I don't need you to come here with any problems to solve.
I am a massage therapist, and my job is to offer you a good massage and create the conditions so that you can relax, feel and enjoy your own body for a while.
The rest of the experience is yours.
