Adriano Owlfinch

Qualifications

  • BCMB Massage Therapist Level 4 Certified and MTI Registered

Adriano Owlfinch specialises in massages for two-, and four-handed massages alongside his wife Phaedra. He is an MTI Registered, fully qualified professional Massage Therapist, having trained at the Bristol College of Massage and Bodywork (BCMB).

Adriano is fascinated by the infinite complexity of the human body and its connections to the mind. He loves that something as deceptively simple as offering touch to the soft tissues of the body can have such profound effects on our stress, sleep, mood, pain, injury recovery, posture, movement.

His focus is to connect with clients as individuals and adapt your massage according to what you need in the moment. He sees it as a creative process, not just following a routine, and takes into account your emotional as well as physical needs.

A book called The Body Keeps the Score was instrumental in attracting Adriano to massage. He has been amazed by how massage can access the profound connection between body and mind when it comes to holding on to and processing trauma, chronic stress, and anxiety.

His intention is to provide a safe, comfortable place where you can inhabit your own self, and experience the healing that massage from a safe, comfortable pair of hands can provide.

In his spare time, Adriano plays table-top role-playing games, makes podcasts and paints digital illustrations.

Success Stories...

Couples / Pairs Massage

“For our anniversary, we booked a couples massage with Phaedra & Adriano. They welcomed us to a very calm and relaxing environment. They were both very professional and incredibly considerate throughout. We greatly enjoyed the massage, which was exactly what we needed. At the end they even provided a sweet treat. We highly recommend this experience and hope to book again soon.”

Four-Handed Massage

“I had the 4-handed massage from Phaedra and Adriano and was extremely pleased with the service. I felt very listened to during the online and in-person consultations. I have fibromyalgia, which can lead to pain during massages and this was completely understood and I felt that the massage was personalised to respect this. I felt very relaxed in the space, and very comfortable with both Adriano and Phaedra. I have sensitive skin so the options to have different oils and not have specific areas massaged was appreciated. The 4-handed massage was very good, their synchronicity was fantastic, and it was a decandent experience. I will be coming back!”

“My partner and I booked a couples massage with Phaedra and Adriano. The session started by entering the beautifully set-up room, with candles and ambient music in the background. We started off with the initial consultation and I received a lovely considerate massage from Adriano. He checked in with me regularly and adjusted to my requests, focusing on the areas I asked him to. I was very pleased with the massage and left feeling very relaxed. I would highly recommend – thank you Adriano and Phaedra.”

Massage

“It was my first ever time having a massage and although I was anxious initially I was greatly reassured by Adriano’s care. He paid very close attention to medical concerns brought up during the consultation before the massage. He was very respectful, reassuring and was very attentive to my specific issues. Adriano was very conscious in respecting if there were areas I preferred not to have worked on. As I had never had a massage before, I didn’t realise I had areas I had emotional links to. I appreciated the professionalism in how he kept to his word when I noticed mid-massage a physical/emotional trigger and he moved to another area fluidly. I felt normal and reaffirmed, safe and able to speak on my body and have it respected. I realise I should have been having massages years ago and I can’t wait to have another one!”
