MASSAGE TOOLS

Here are some massage tools and accessories that I think can help some of you in your massages. If you end up using any of these, please let me know about your experience with them. Also, please pay attention to the manufacturers recommendations on how to sue these tools and “do no harm” 🙂

Massage Tables

For most practical purposes the absolute best place to give and receive a massage is on a massage table. They are designed to make giving a massage much easier and healthier, and are far superior to beds, etc. especially if you are trying to get any deep work done. 


There are a lot of things to consider when purchasing a massage table and you can check out what I think is important here


If you are in the Seattle area and are a Couple’s Massage Workshop Alumni you can always just come borrow one from me for a special occasion or long weekend. 

The Thumbby

I really like the Thumbby Soft Massage Cone! I like it for a lot of reasons, but probably the most relevant reasons here are:


1) that it will let you generate a lot of pressure without using a lot of force or stressing your joints


2) It is a wonderful self care tool! It sticks to the wall so you can use it to hit your own trigger points, you can sit on it, stick it on the side of your bath tub and lean in and on and on and on.

Deep Tissue Tools

This is Wellgler's Deep Tissue Massage Tool (Amazon). It is a fun tool to try. Actually there are a lot of deep tissue tools that are fun to try but might not work very well for different people for different reasons. I suggest trying them all but making sure you can return them with no hassle (think Amazon Prime, Costco).

I took several couple massage classes before, but Joe's class was absolutely far the best of all. The class was very thorough and he is an excellent teacher. The class was very informative, entertaining and educating. Totally recommended if you are interested to learn a different way of giving a more effective massage.

An amazingly powerful experience for us as a couple that has been together for 46years. This 3 hour session with Joe taught us a new way to nurture and please each other in an enlightening way. He put us at ease right away and the studio was very comfortable. This workshop is a must for couples who are dedicated to continuing to build their relationship in a passionate, nurturing, healthy way.

These guys are great. Very comfortable setting, not awkward at all. We had an awesome time, learned a lot, and they checked in frequently to give advice or teach a more specific technique.
