About Us

my naked journey

My naked journey started over 50 years ago. I loved the freedom, feeling the wind brush against my skin, the sun’s heat warming every inch of me. Fully feeling at one with mother nature. It needs to be experienced to fully appreciate the written words here.

Even on rainy days it was wonderful. The first time I experienced this was in an open-air swimming pool, the heavens opened, and it poured down.

The contrast between the warm water in the pool and the cold rain hitting you, it’s hard to put into words, but I didn’t want it to stop.

In a way it was my first sensual massage experience 😊 What that did teach me was the unlimited sensations we can experience, if we open our minds to it.

Which led the way to my massage journey.

naturist massage the beginning

I first became a therapist because of life changes. Having to stop my job as an electrician due to health reasons, massage therapy was one of the keys to my recovery. A balanced lifestyle and diet and exercise were the others.

I realised that massage therapy was a natural treatment to helping with issues such as anxiety, stress, panic attacks, pain, certain injuries, to name a few. People I believe, are becoming more conscious regarding their health and wellbeing, massage therapy I feel has been at the forefront of this change.

At this point I decided to turn my life around and enrolled at the Institute of Traditional Herbal Medicine and Aromatherapy. After the initial two years training, I started practicing massage treatments in 1995.

visiting massage

At that time, I was mainly visiting clients in their homes or hotels around London and Hertfordshire.

Lugging a large massage table around Greater London wasn’t fun. But once I got to work with the clients that was fantastic.

bond between the masseur and the client

In normal day to day life, we never really get know most people that intimately.

With massage you do.

More so if you are both naked, the vulnerability tends to melt away. It becomes a level playing field, and once I touch the client that’s when the magic starts to happen.

There is a very intimate bond between the masseur and the client, and the massage can have a very profound and therapeutic effect when implemented correctly.

That means to be in the moment with the client. To be touched is something we all need.

It’s what life has thrown at you along the way, will determine how you react to touch.

The Workshop

The workshop naturist spa and massage centre was founded in 2011.

I’d always dreamt of having my own naturist spa and spent quite a few years trying to find the right venue.

Now years later it feels like home, to us and to our clients.

At the spa we have, I feel, only the most experienced massage therapists. Our therapists will always try and ensure the highest standards for your massage treatment, they will also address any medical concerns and give advice before your session.

Acceptance of your body

One of the main advantages of a naked spa is the feeling of complete liberation and acceptance of your body.

In our spa, there is no judgment, no expectations based on appearance or body shape.

Everyone is vulnerable in their natural state, at the same time the experience can be incredibly empowering and liberating, and helping you to develop a more positive body image which in turn will hopefully boost your self-confidence.

Embracing your nakedness

Stripping away all the layers, physically and metaphorically speaking, allows you to fully embrace your nakedness. Without the constraints of clothes, your skin can absorb the natural elements more effectively, and have a positive therapeutic benefit.

Interactions with other people become more authentic and genuine. This can promote a stronger mind-body connection, leading to a heightened sense of peace and tranquility.

Don't let initial reservations hold you back from experiencing a visit to a true naked spa.
