Alternative Session For Women's Health & Well-Being

---

Alternative Mixed Session with a Difference – For Women Only

Please note: this session is strictly for women. I've had several situations where men have tried to book their wives in for a session and claim their wives can’t come, but they want the session. There have also been cases of individuals identifying themselves as women but are males.

We welcome everyone’s individuality, but for this session, participants must be women who were assigned female at birth.

Special $150 2-hour session. $200 in 2026. Once you book in for this session and you are a regular client, the price stays the same for the year you booked in for the session. If you need more than one session, like most ladies do, I can make it a bit cheaper. 

Please read the Important Notice for safety for all at the end of this page and Testimonials. You will need to meet me before discussing the session, so you know how and what's going to happen in the session, and have a look around and meet me in person before, as you will be more comfortable and relaxed before the session.  I can answer questions by email or text, also. My table is not the size of a Thai massage, so I am unable to take a larger person due to the safety and comfort of the client and myself. 

This session is not for everyone, so if you are really ready to let go, then please contact me for any other information you might need. This is all about letting go of stress and relaxation. 

To ensure each person has the space to fully relax and express their emotions, partners are kindly asked not to remain on-site or wait in their car during the session. If a partner needs to be involved, we’re happy to arrange a separate meeting the day before. This helps maintain a safe and supportive environment for everyone, especially in situations where privacy and safety are important.

(Safety Notice) For your safety and peace of mind, if your partner is controlling and would not allow a session with a male, you might consider seeing a female practitioner.

Book for the evening since it’s the best time to relax, but it can also be arranged during the day if you can only come between school hours or when your partner is at work.

⚖️ Important Note
This session is conducted with the utmost respect, professionalism, and care. While deeply nurturing, sensual, and restorative, it is focused on full relaxation, emotional release, lymphatic flow, pain management, as much as it can, depending on what your body needs, and holistic well-being. Boundaries are always respected, and your comfort and safety are paramount.

What can stop my body and mind from totally relaxing?

1. Unhealthy eating.
2. Overweight for your body size.
3. Large tummies: Excess abdominal fat, especially around the tummy area, can affect the body's natural circulation and organ function. When fat accumulates around the midsection, it can put pressure on internal structures, potentially impacting blood flow, lymphatic drainage, and even hormonal balance and cause back pain.  
4. Vaping.
5. Smoking.
6. Taking drugs.
7. Stressful job.
8. Stressful relationship.

These are just some of the worst habits and stresses that affect our bodies and minds from healing and relaxation. 

Can I book this session if I’m a larger size?

Your health, comfort, and safety are my top priorities, so I want every client to have a truly relaxing and safe experience.

To ensure this, I need to be upfront about the limitations of my massage table. For optimal comfort and safety for both the client and myself, my table is best suited for clients approximately size 6 to 14. This session is not suitable for larger sizes.

It’s important to be honest about your body size, as this is a safety concern. I’ve had instances where clients underestimated their size, which can make it difficult to support the body comfortably. Arms may not rest naturally, turning over can feel unsafe, and there’s a risk of falling—this has happened before, resulting in injuries.

For clients outside this size range, I highly recommend Thai massage or other therapies with extra-large tables, which allow for full support and enable you to truly relax and enjoy your session safely.

Thank you for your understanding. This ensures that every client receives the most comfortable, safe, and restorative massage possible.

To respect the privacy of my lady clients, names have been changed, and none of these testimonials are from Google reviews. Every woman’s experience in the session is unique, and there is no one-size-fits-all outcome. 

Some women may feel deep relaxation and emotional release, while others may find it takes more time to fully let go. This is completely normal and nothing to be concerned about. Life circumstances, stress, or personal experiences can influence how much you can relax at any given moment. The session provides a safe, nurturing, and supportive space for you to explore your body, mind, and emotions at your own pace.  

🌸 Natural release, and emotional well-being. 

Hi Ray, thank you so much for helping my body and truly listening to me without judgment. You were the only one who understood what I was going through after many years of pain and frustration. Physiotherapists gave me exercises, and doctors prescribed medication, but nothing seemed to help my condition. As a young married woman who had never had children, I struggled with severe pain in my lower back, hips, and pelvic area, especially when trying to be intimate. The pain was so intense that it would stop me from reaching a climax, leaving me feeling defeated and deeply sad. My husband didn’t understand what I was going through, and even counselling didn’t ease my pain.

From the moment I came to you, your understanding of the female body and your therapeutic techniques, especially the pressure point therapy and Alternative Session with a Difference, made all the difference. After just one session, I experienced a significant reduction in pain, and for the first time, I was able to feel pleasure without the same discomfort. After several sessions, the pain was completely gone. Thank you for your kindness, your professionalism, and your healing hands. You’ve given me back confidence, comfort, and a part of myself I thought I’d lost forever.

 🌸 A safe and liberating space to fully unwind.
I was a bit nervous at first about being nude in front of another person, but as soon as the session began, I felt completely safe, respected, and supported. The gentle guidance, mindful movements, and nurturing sensual massage helped me relax more than I ever thought possible. Gradually, I let go of my tension, breathed deeply, and allowed my body to soften completely. By the end, I was surprised at how much I had enjoyed the experience: it felt liberating, restorative, and deeply nourishing for both my body and mind. E. Japanese - ACT2025.

 🌸 Empowering, restorative, and deeply nurturing.
Hi, Ray, your session was a truly transformative experience for me. From the moment I arrived, I felt safe, supported, and completely cared for. The combination of mindful movement, gentle stretches, breathing exercises, and full-body massage allowed me to release tension I didn’t even realise I had been holding. I felt my energy shift, my body soften, and a deep sense of calm and clarity settle over me. It’s rare to find a therapy that attends to the body, mind, and emotions so thoughtfully, and this session does it beautifully. I left feeling empowered, rejuvenated, and more connected to myself than I have in years. I would wholeheartedly recommend it to any woman seeking holistic care and true relaxation. Y.
