He is professional, friendly, and provides a great The deep tissue massage was really useful, deep, but not painful. Do not forget to make an appointment when you visit in Lisbon. It is a massage that worth every single penny of yours!! Other than the professional massage, Antonio is also a nice guy to chat with!
Many thanks Neo for this stellar recommendation of yours! I've been hiking all over cobblestone streets and up and down hills for so long that the sides of my ankles and feet were going numb. It was worrisome to say the least. At least I didn't feel the pain! I found Antonio on Trip Advisor because no one I asked knew of any massage people personally. Not as popular here as in California where it seems like everyone knows of a therapist. I've had great massage in the past and Antonio is one of the best.
The room is beautifully done, evoking calm and peace. The music wasn't that annoying new age elevator music but a beautiful blend of classical and intimate sound that lulls you into relaxation. Antonio has a gentleness and presence that fosters trust and once on the table it's easy to let go. He obviously has fine training but there were techniques he used I'm sure he developed through his own years of practice. He was extremely intuitive and I feel like I didn't have to say anything because I knew he knew.
I woke up to the places in my body that I'd shut down in and ultimately it wasn't just about numb feet, but a complete holistic metamorphosis whereby I was re-connected and grounded and yet lighter than air.
I wish I could go back right now! Many thanks for this stellar review! I am glad you enjoyed and got the most out of your massage session. Interesting to see that you noticed how specific my approach is while associating various traditional techniques from diverse inspirations in order to adapt the session to the specific tensions and areas of stress of each client.
