Silvio
My Approach
“At its heart, all my work is an act of care, creating the conditions for a connection.”
Flow State began with a simple belief: when given the right conditions, the body already knows how to heal, release, and return to balance.
I believe that any meaningful treatments should adapt to the individual rather than asking the individual to adapt to the treatment.
Drawing inspiration from a range of holistic traditional approaches, each session is shaped around what your body needs on the day. Some treatments may feel deeply nurturing and meditative. Others may involve more focused work on areas of long-held tension and restriction.
Pressure, pace, techniques, and areas of focus are adjusted throughout the session, creating an experience that feels personal, intuitive, and uniquely yours.
As the body softens and the mind begins to quiet, many clients find themselves entering a state where time seems to slow down, breathing becomes easier, and a deeper sense of ease emerges naturally.
About Me
Over the years, Silvio has explored a wide range of bodywork traditions, movement practices, and approaches to wellbeing. He believes that the most effective treatments rarely come from following a rigid routine. They come from listening.
Every person arrives carrying something different. Stress, physical tension, fatigue, overwhelm, old injuries, or simply the weight of a busy life. Rather than applying the same sequence to every client, Silvio’s approach is guided by what is present in the moment.
His treatments blend skilled work with intuitive touch, creating sessions that are deeply restorative, highly personalised, and often difficult to compare to a conventional massage.
Known for his calm presence and attention to detail, Silvio creates a space where clients can fully let go, slow down, and reconnect with themselves.
“Massaging has become my zen practice, a moving meditation, I believe it to be an essential addition to any wellness routine. I find incredibly effective in providing a wide range of benefits and it’s really rewarding to help someone feel better, whether by reducing pain, increasing range of movement, or simply creating space for them to relax and let go.
I love connecting to every single one of my clients and I work with awareness to invest my heart, body, soul, and mind to make every session truly special.”
Why my sessions begin at 90 minutes
True restoration can’t be rushed.
The work I do unfolds gradually following your body natural rhythm - your breath.
Ninety minutes is the minimum time needed to move through the body with care, allowing release to happen organically rather than be forced.
This is not a massage squeezed into an hour.
It’s time reclaimed, a space for your system to unwind, restore, and remember its natural flow.

150 Minutes
This is for those who appreciate the luxury of time.
An opportunity to slow down fully and give yourself the time you rarely allow in everyday life.
This extended treatment allows for a deeply personalised experience. There is space to follow instinct, to listen and explore what lies beneath the surface, to meet the body where it truly is
Combining focused work with long, flowing periods of relaxation. Areas that often feel rushed in shorter sessions can be explored with care and attention, creating a treatment that feels both comprehensive and unhurried.
The rhythm slows, the breath deepens, and a natural stillness begins to emerge.
The result is often a profound sense of release, renewal, and ease that stays with you long after the session ends.

Signature Experience
The full expression of this massage style
An immersive journey for body and mind, created for those moments when a deeper reset is needed.
This is where time dissolves and the ordinary falls away. Over three and a half unhurried hours, each movement unfolds like a meditation :
Slow
Precise
and profoundly attuned to what you carry.
Layers of tension melt, the nervous system softens, and a quiet clarity begins to emerge.
Each part of the body receives the attention it deserves, creating a deeply restorative experience that feels uniquely personal.
Every touch is intentional, every transition seamless. What begins as deep release becomes something greater — a state of stillness and renewal that lingers long after the session ends.
Many clients describe reaching a place where time seems to slow down, the mind becomes quieter, and the body feels lighter than it has in months.
More than a massage, this is an act of self-care, a journey back to your natural state of flow.
My Reviews
FAQs
-
My work draws on traditional massage styles - Thai, Ayurvedic, Yoga, and Deep Tissue - and is shaped by years of yoga and meditation practice, forming the foundation of how I work.
Each session flows with intuition and presence. Techniques are tools, not rules, and every movement responds to your body’s needs, creating a quiet, gentle conversation between touch, oils, and awareness.
I use a blend of stretching, pressure points, mobilisations, and fascial work to ease tension, restore movement, and bring balance. The massage is oil-based, typically using sweet almond oil blended with essential oils chosen for your body’s needs. Occasionally, an Ayurvedic element such as Calamus (Vacha) powder is added - a fine, gentle scrub that supports circulation, clarity, and balance.
Every session is shaped by your body’s rhythm on the day. The intention is to guide you into a state of holistic ease, where tension softens, breath deepens, and mind, muscles, and body move together in comfort and flow.

At Flow State, each massage is designed as a journey — not a quick escape.
The body and mind need time to truly let go, to release tension, and to open into deep relaxation.
Shorter sessions often end just as your system begins to soften, so we begin at 90 minutes to allow a complete, unhurried experience.
This isn’t about more time on the clock — it’s about depth, presence, and care.
-
Each session at Flow State is offered as a full-body treatment, thoughtfully adapted to your body’s needs and comfort on the day. The massage may include the back, legs, feet, arms, shoulders, and hips. It can also include focused work around the glutes and hip flexors, as these areas often hold deep tension and play a key role in overall balance and posture.
The whole session is carried out with professionalism, care, and deep respect for personal boundaries. Certain areas of an intimate nature are never touched and always remain covered.
I do not work with sensual or sexual energies in any form — the intention of the treatment is purely restorative. Your comfort, wellbeing, and sense of safety are always at the heart of the session.
If there are any areas you’d prefer not to include, please share them before or during your treatment — the massage will always be adjusted to ensure you feel completely at ease.
-
There’s nothing special you need to do or bring — everything is provided for you, from fresh towels to oils and water.
As this is an oil-based massage, you’ll usually remain in your underwear (bottoms), and you’ll be covered with towels throughout the session. Only the area being worked on is uncovered at any time, ensuring you feel fully comfortable and at ease. Wear something loose and easy to change out of, and try to avoid a heavy meal just before your session.
Arriving a few minutes early helps you settle in, slow down, and begin to unwind before the treatment begins. Most importantly, switch off your phone, take a deep breath, and allow yourself to arrive — your body will take care of the rest.
-
Each session begins with a 20-minute informal consultation, a gentle conversation designed to connect human to human. This helps build trust, understand your body’s needs, and create a framework for the session that feels safe, supportive, and fully tailored to you.
After the session, there is usually time to integrate and return to your day at your own pace. You’re never rushed — the space is intentionally calm and unhurried so you can fully feel, process, and enjoy the effects of the work.
The massage itself lasts for the duration you booked and unfolds at an unhurried pace, allowing your body to fully relax and respond naturally. The consultation at the beginning and the time at the end are additional to your booked massage and included at no extra cost. To ensure you never feel rushed and can fully enjoy the experience, please allow around 30 extra minutes when booking.
*For example, if you book a 90-minute massage, plan for an extra 20–30 minutes for arrival, consultation, and post-massage integration.
It’s natural to notice a range of sensations, thoughts, or emotions before, during, or after a massage. Every aspect of the session - from the first conversation to the final moments — is designed to support your wellbeing, comfort, and deep sense of ease.
-
Your safety and wellbeing are always the top priority. If you have any special requests, health conditions, injuries, or are pregnant, please get in touch before booking. This allows me to give tailored guidance and ensure the session is safe and suitable for you.
At this stage, I do not hold pregnancy-specific qualifications or insurance, so I am currently unable to offer pregnancy massage. I am working towards this for the future.
For other injuries or health considerations, I can advise on what is possible and if/how the massage can be adapted to your needs. Open communication helps make the session safe, comfortable, and fully beneficial.

There’s no single answer — it depends on your body, lifestyle, and what feels right. I encourage everyone to listen to themselves and their own needs, as massage is just one step on a much wider journey of self-care, self-discovery, and connection with your body. It is an act of care and attention, and its value is in how it supports your ongoing relationship with yourself rather than a fixed schedule.
Many clients find that a massage every 3–4 weeks creates a good rhythm for wellness, self-care, and maintaining balance in daily life. Some clients may benefit from a little extra care at the start, with sessions once a week or every couple of weeks, to help their body reset and get back on track.
To support this, I created the Circle Flow Monthly Massage Club, which allows you to receive a gentle, regular rhythm of care. For those who prefer, I also offer bundles and packages, which let you schedule multiple sessions at a reduced rate. This gives flexibility while helping you maintain a consistent, nurturing routine.

All sessions are by appointment only, booked through the website. This ensures your time is reserved especially for you and the space remains calm and unhurried.
• Cancellations or rescheduling: Please provide at least 48 hours’ notice. Over time, I’ve realized that 24 hours is often not enough. With limited availability, I need to ensure that your reserved time can be reallocated if necessary. This is why a 48-hour notice is required — it allows me to manage the schedule fairly and offer the session to someone else if needed. If you cannot make your session, please get in touch as soon as possible. I will do my best to accommodate any changes or adjustments.
• Late arrivals: Arriving late may affect the session. Every lateness of 15 minutes or more could result in the session being cancelled or treated as a no-show, particularly if there isn’t enough time for the full consultation and a minimum 90-minute massage.
• Preparation & arrival: Arrive a few minutes early to settle in and start relaxing. This also ensures you have enough time for the initial consultation and post-massage integration, which are included on top of your booked massage duration at no extra cost.
This structure ensures you get the most from your session, with space to arrive, unwind, and leave without rushing, fully embracing the benefits of the experience.

I believe normal is a myth — and if you met me already, you’d know that’s true! Some clients feels like laughing or cry a little and some don’t feel any strong emotional release at all.
That doesn’t mean the massage isn’t working — it simply means that this isn’t what your body needs to release right now. Every body responds differently, and every reaction is valid.
Any emotional response is completely natural and nothing to worry about. It’s a sign that your body is opening, processing, and reconnecting with itself.
Your session is held in a safe, unhurried space, so you can feel whatever comes up whether it’s relief, joy, calm, or simply nothing noticeable. Part of the experience is allowing yourself to be fully human, exactly as you are, without judgment or need to hold back
