Intuitive Massage York
My name is Rakesh Aggarwal. As a York based massage therapist with over 20 years experience, I offer clients a unique guarantee. Your guarantee is this: when you have your first massage from me I must significantly relieve or reduce the pain you're in within 7 days. I'm passionate about helping my clients lead pain free lives.

This risk-free guarantee is in place in order to encourage you to come to my York practice for a massage, which may change your life. I use techniques derived from Swedish massage, sports massage, Thai massage, acupressure and Reiki to give a deep but sensitive massage. This type of massage allows tight, tense muscles to relax.
Services
I have been massaging for over 20 years and use techniques derived from Swedish massage, sports massage, Thai massage, acupressure and Reiki to give a deep but sensitive massage. As well as relieving localised muscular tension, the massage therapy can help with your overall wellbeing. It can be extremely beneficial for physical and emotional issues.
A Reiki treatment can be empowering and feel like a wonderful energy flowing all around you and through you. When giving Reiki, I treat the whole person - including body, mind, emotions and spirit. The benefits can be remarkable - many have reported results that have been miraculous. You may or may not feel sensations during a treatment.
Warmed oil is massaged gently into your neck, shoulders, back, arms and legs. This induces a deep feeling of relaxation, allowing any stresses to dissolve away, leading to a profound sense of well-being. People have described it as feeling like you've been wrapped in cotton wool and the reset button pressed on your body and mind.
This was one of the most natural treatments I have received. With no knowledge of my history and injuries due to a severe accident Rakesh identified all my bad areas and carried out one of the best treatments I have ever had and would recommend him to anybody. Rakesh instinctively knew how much pressure to apply so that areas of tension were relaxed in a soothing way.
After this, the therapist will ask you some questions to find out what you would like from the massage, and if massage is the right treatment for you. If massage is right for you, the therapist will then proceed with a treatment. You only need to get undressed to the point you feel comfortable. You will be left in privacy to get undressed and make yourself comfortable on the massage couch.

Rakesh is a natural healer. I've been a few times and a couple of times he has had quite a transformational effect. The last time I went, as I was walking back to work I felt tears falling down my face. I wasn't upset. I think he was able to release a lot of emotional stress in the treatment he gave. Highly recommend.

Visited Rakesh today as I have had neck pain nearly all year at times quite severe. He spent nearly an hour massaging my neck but mainly my back. I can honestly say tonight at home I feel no pain at all. I booked to return in January for a follow up and considering how good this has made me feel I will be returning. Rakesh is a top man and I am 100% impressed.

Full on massage on a back that has been far too tight for far too long. Not only the massage was amazing, Rakesh is such a nice guy and makes you feel at home. Great experience, will definitely be back.

Rakesh has a real gift. He has a unique ability to release the tensions which the body holds and promote healing and a tremendous sense of overall wellbeing and peace. He is a consummate professional and one of York's real gems.

Rakesh is a natural healer, a great people person and highly professional. He has shown genuine concern regarding my well being and extensive knowledge and capability in terms of improving it. In just one session I benefited from ample improvements to my neck and back pain and within a few sessions, really felt transformed. We are very lucky to have Intuitive Massage here in York!

Rakesh has a great welcoming yet professional manner which is easy to relax around. The first time he massaged me he found a knot before I had told him where I could feel stress, he has an uncanny ability to find this seemingly hidden tension. After my first massage I felt so relaxed that I was almost ready for bed (it was 3pm!) and after a couple of treatments the change was incredible. My shoulders felt far more flexible and loose, the tension had vanished away! Would highly recommend to anyone! :D

Rakesh has a very welcoming and easy manner and this immediately put me at ease. The setting is very quiet and relaxed and lends itself to healing. The massage exceeded all expectations, Rakesh was able to locate areas of discomfort using intuition and gradually eliminate them through a range of techniques. The experience left me feeling relaxed and better equipped to cope with the demands of my work and everyday life. I really cannot recommend Rakesh highly enough, he has a natural ability for massage and his professionalism and experience are self-evident.
