Why coming to them matters more at this stage

Leaving the house for a session is easy to picture at thirty. At eighty, every step of the trip costs energy: down the stairs, into the car, waiting in a room that is not hers. In Rio's heat or on a wet day, that cost already eats into what the massage was supposed to give back, before it has even started.

I bring the table into the living room or the bedroom. She does not have to get dressed to go out, does not have to wait standing, does not have to travel home afterwards. She stays exactly where she is already comfortable, and the session happens around her.

Whoever books is not always the person receiving the massage. Send me the address and the phone number of the person I am coming to see, and I go straight there.

What I need to know before I come

Tell me in your first message how she is: whether there is any limit on her movement, a specific pain, or something she prefers. That is what I plan the session from.

Tell me about any relevant health condition — medication she takes, recent surgery, anything I should know before I arrive. Where massage is not advisable for a medical condition, I only work with a signed medical clearance. After surgery I start from seven days, also with signed medical authorisation.

QUESTIONS FROM PEOPLE WHO CARE FOR SOMEONE

What people booking for someone else ask

Is the massage really different for an older person?

Yes, and what changes depends on the person. Tell me her situation before booking and I plan the session from that.

Do I need to mention medication or surgery?

Yes, and it matters. Where massage is not advisable for a medical condition, I only work with a signed medical clearance. After surgery I start from seven days, also with signed medical authorisation.

Does the session have to be on the table?

It does not. When getting onto the table is difficult, I work on the bed, in an armchair, on the sofa or on the rug.

Can I book for my parents even if they did not ask?

You can. Plenty of people book for a mother or a father who never asked for it. Send me the address and the phone number of whoever is receiving the massage.

What does the session cost?

R$ 280, travel included.

Tell me the address and the day. I bring the rest.

Same-day reply. No sign-up, no app.
