Astrid in Berlin, Germany

Massage Therapist

Hello, my name is Astrid. After becoming a registered Nurse I decided to extend my healing abilities by studying massage. I got my Massage diploma in 1991 and ever since I have been kneading and squeezing muscles, working up a sweat while working on bodies and touching souls. Stretching, pulling, pushing, breathing, feeling, ...

My technique of massage is very fluid and intuitive, staying in verbal and nonverbal communication about what is needed and what feels good. Strong or soft - riding the wave of aliveness. I enjoy the body and as I know mine well, I feel connected to others. It is such a gift, to be able to do something good and get responses of pleasure.

When I heard of Dr. Dot, I contacted and massaged her. I heard, that she is very alive and never holds still, so I was worried, when she didn't say anything or move during the massage. I asked, if something went wrong but she said, that she was very relaxed and in heaven. After the audition, she asked me to join her team.

She also massaged me and I enjoyed her very natural and alive style. So I am glad for the opportunity to be seen in her team on this site and would like to treat you when you pass through Berlin with my healing hands.

“To Whom It May Concern: I have been touring for about 22 years with many different bands (Dave Matthews, Tracy Chapman, Primus, etc etc...) The masseuse I had today for The Weepies show at The State Room in SLC, Danielle, was perhaps one of the best I have ever had. Everything from her disposition to her skills. My entire band and crew adored her. I felt it was important to tell how amazing this woman was, and how she brightened our day. Best Regards, Brett Manager – The Weepies”
