Palm Springs, Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, CA, USA
GIFT CARDS AVAILABLE
My name is Greg and I am a professional
Massage Therapist in Palm Springs, California.
Unlike many therapists in the area, my only requirement for a client is someone
who is looking for relief from stress, aches and pains or perhaps a massage to
pamper themselves for no other reason than "just because". It makes no
difference to me your physical attributes, sexual orientation, gender, age,
or personal challenges.
My massage treatments offer attention to every detail. The music, the comfort of the table, the linens, the temperature of the room and, of course, my massage techniques, which are effective and nurturing. For some, this consists of a faster-paced, stimulating session, like a sports massage. For others, the perfect massage is slow and rhythmic, fluid-like, lulling the body slowly into another world. I have been practicing massage long enough to have developed different styles that can adapt to your specific needs.
My website has been developed over several years to include online appointments, payment options beyond cash only and a list of the many types of services that I provide. I have just recently added Water Massage to the menu.
Now I am adding, for sale, a few of the products that I use in my sessions, and in my studio; elements like music, oils, lotions, creams. When you book an appointment with me, you will be able to experience these things first hand.

Health Benefits of Ghee:
Clarified butter can help boost the immune system, enhance digestion, help with the absorption of vitamins, help to reduce inflammation, promote better memory, produce more and better quality semen, helps to lubricate connective tissues for better flexibility and unlike butter, ghee can be used on mild burns to reduce pain and blisters if applied immediately to the burn. You can take 2 teaspoons of ghee daily as a supplement, but if you are using it to cook with or adding it to your vegetable dishes, there's no need for more. Clarified butter is a fat and you don't want to overdo your daily fat consumption.
We need some fat in our diet to maintain good health. Ghee is a great tasting and versatile alternative to any cooking oil. It's lactose free and if you are looking for a healthy alternative to your present cooking oil, clarified butter will meet your needs and can provide health benefits.
In 2009 an Irish bog yielded a barrel of butter that was found to be over 3,000 years old!
In early times, unlike today, butter was so costly it was used in religious ceremonies. It still is today in India and Tibet.
The first reference to butter in our written history was found on a 4,500-year-old limestone tablet illustrating how butter was made.
During the T'ang Dynasty in China, clarified butter represented the ultimate development of the Buddha spirit.
The ancient Egyptians valued it as a cure for eye problems.
The Isesi Foot Massage is a 30 minute reflexology treatment. The heart of this specialized massage is directed toward the feet and the lower extremities. Warmed ghee, traditional to Ayurveda practices, is firmly massaged into the skin, providing you with the many benefits enjoyed throughout centuries of time. Benefits include; helping to boost the immune system, enhance digestion, help with the absorption of vitamins, helping to reduce inflammation, promote better memory, producing more and better quality semen, and helping to lubricate connective tissues for better flexibility.
INTRODUCING
Hey, it's my massage right? I can call it anything I want...I am featuring a new reflexology massage called the Isesi massage. This type of massage has actually been around for centuries. My massage, like KANSA VATAKI (a intensive Ayurveda version), uses a derivative of butter called ghee (also known as clarified butter), the pure oil is massaged into the skin for many benefits. Ayurveda is the traditional medicine system of India. It is the world’s oldest healing system, dating back approximately 5,000 years. Ayurveda is considered to be the mother of all forms of modern medicine. "Ayur" means life and "Veda" means knowledge. Ayurveda means knowledge of life.
I around 2500 BC the Egyptians are credited for the creation of reflexology. Since the ancient Egyptians valued ghee as a cure for eye problems, I have my suspicions that they also used it to massage the feet of the great Pharaohs and pyramid builders like. Why not?
My newly featured massage is a hybrid version of Ayurveda ideas and also acknowledges a royal Egyptian influence in reflexology. Djedkare Isesi was the 8th Pharaoh of the fifth dynasty. His rein was 2388-2356 B.C. A carved bas relief in his tomb shows a bodyworker doing reflexology!
