Hello,

My name is Carl Occhipinti, and I am a professional masseur living and working in Chicago.  I have a private practice and have been involved in this line of work for most of the past 30 years.

WHO WANTS MASSAGE ANYWAY?

Massage used to be a luxury found only in exclusive spa-type settings.  Now, massage is widely available as many people have found it to be a valuable component of their health and wellness routines, going beyond mere relief from muscle pain.  Maybe you’re in recovery from disease or trauma.  Maybe life has been beating you up lately.  Maybe you have a sense that your body needs a boost that it’s not getting from drugs, exercise, or verbal therapies.  Maybe you want to take greater charge of your health.  Massage can help.

MASSAGE

I was originally trained in Swedish deep-tissue massage, but received further education at the Esalen Institute in Big Sur, California,.  I found the Esalen approach very appealing, and while my personal style incorporates all of my training, it is fair to say that Esalen has had the greater influence.  Please visit the services page to learn more about my massage work and experience.

REFLEXOLOGY

My sessions are roughly 90 minutes in length and begin with a 30-minute period of reflexology, which is a big word for a foot massage.  Since the subsequent table work is done in silence, this time gives me a chance to get to know my clients and ease into the later work.  Oh…..and it feels great.

SPINAL AWARENESS

I returned to Esalen in the autumn of 2009 and was introduced to a healing method known as Spinal Awareness.  I connected with it right away, and am very excited to bring it to Chicago as part of my practice.  It is a type of energy alignment which is based on many of the same principles as the Feldenkrais Technique.  Please visit the services page to learn more about Spinal Awareness.

Thanks for visiting my site.  Please note that first time visitors receive a $20 reduction in the fee by bringing a copy of the coupon on the left.   I look forward to hearing from you.

Carl
