Hands-on bodywork · at your home
Thai Massage and therapeutic flying — strong, attentive work that meets the body where it holds and finds genuine ease through it. Delivered in your own space.
Explore the work ScrollThis is hands-on bodywork drawing on 25 years of practice across Thai Massage, partner acrobatics, and somatic movement. One session, one integrated practice — the work meets the body in front of it rather than following a fixed routine.
A session moves between deep, grounded Thai work on the mat — compression, traction, assisted stretch — and therapeutic flying, where the body is supported and decompressed in the air. Where it serves you, the two flow into one another.
It is not passive, and it is not a relaxing massage in the usual sense. The work is strong, precise, and listening — leaning into the places that hold, and softening them from the inside so the whole body can find more space and ease.
The work softens in the tough places to find greater ease — accessing the yin in the yang, and the yang in the yin.
Sessions take place in your own home, on a mat — there's no need for a treatment table. A small travel contribution may apply for visits beyond the immediate area; I'll always agree everything clearly with you before your first session.
Sessions are offered as home visits across the Tring to Watford corridor and the surrounding towns and villages — out toward Berkhamsted, Hemel Hempstead, Aylesbury, and the lanes between.
Travel further afield is possible by arrangement, depending on timing — particularly for block bookings, where a longer journey makes good sense for both of us.
Not sure whether you're within reach? Just ask. The simplest thing is to tell me roughly where you are when you enquire, and I'll let you know.
This work began in 1999 with a severe break of tibia and fibula — and a direct encounter with what it means to lose, and slowly recover, the most basic relationship with your own body. What followed was a 25-year inquiry that has never stopped.
The hands-on side of that inquiry runs deep. Jesse studied Thai Massage with Pichest Boonthumme, Asokananda, and Kira Balaskas, and trained in partner acrobatics and therapeutic flying with some of the practice's foundational teachers. The two strands — pressure on the ground and decompression in the air — became one body of work.
Jesse is the founder of The Felt Body, a named, teachable system synthesising a lifetime of practice across yoga, Thai Massage, AcroYoga, and somatic movement. He brings genuine expertise, unhurried attention, and a deep respect for each body he works with.
Tell me a little about what you're looking for and roughly where you are, and I'll find us a time. If you're unsure whether you're within reach, or which option suits you, just ask — there's no obligation.
