The Body Connection
The Body Connection offers a broad range of massage & bodywork sessions to support the everyday needs of the male body - including remedial massage, stretch & deep relaxation.
But...for those who are curious, there is also an opportunity to go deeper - to explore more authentic connections & to experience joy & pleasure through intentional, therapeutic touch.
Honest & genuine connections are at the heart of my practice. These values shape the space we share - a shame free space where men feel welcome & safe. A place where you can be yourself & let go without fear of judgement.
​
Let's lets work together & unashamedly explore the brilliance of your body.
ABOUT ALEX
About Alex
-
10+ years industry experience working as a massage therapist & bodyworker.
-
Worked in some of the top clinics in Sydney
-
I seek out world-class teachers & training opportunities to expand my knowledge & deepen my skill set
-
​As a member of a professional massage association, I am committed to ongoing learning to maintain my accreditation
Why work with me?
Quite simply...I love what I do.
I am a highly qualified Remedial Massage Therapist & Somatic Bodyworker & over the years I have studied a wide range of massage & bodywork modalities. I am always seeking new opportunities to expand my knowledge & to deepen my skill set.
​
But when it comes to massage & bodywork, there is really only one way to learn & that is hands on bodies. You learn by feeling. It has taken years of full-time work & hands on practice, working with many different bodies - to feel confident & qualified for the work that I offer.
​
And...when it comes to Somatic Bodywork, I know what it is like to feel disconnected from yourself. As a Somatic Bodyworker, my role is to help guide you out of your head & back into the felt experience of your body - known as embodiment. Because we cannot fully enjoy our bodies, if we are trapped in our minds.

My Story
Our stories…
are the main reason we are not connected to ourselves. All my life I have been trapped by my story. The little gay boy from the country, who never felt like he belonged or felt good enough. Mine is just a story, one of many. You may relate, you may not. It doesn’t matter. And I want to acknowledge that people have stories that are way worse than mine. But I think to grow, we need to try & let go of these stories. They are not who we are. This is not the person I am today. But I am grateful for everything that has happened to me & the people in my life, even if they don’t understand me. I am a stronger for it & a more balanced human being because of my struggles.
But this is mainly a story of connection.

REVIEWS
Alex is by far the best massage therapist I have ever seen. I saw him consistently throughout my half marathon training a few months ago and it made ALL the difference to my performance and the way I felt. All of my little niggles would just melt away.
Fast forward a few months…I went away overseas for 6 weeks but maintained my training for upcoming half marathon. I was wondering to myself why my body continually felt sore, then I realised I hadn’t been having my Alex massages!Needless to say I’ve just returned from vacay and immediately visited Alex…I feel normal again!!!

It was the best and most intimate full body massage I have ever had. Alex was very attentive to tight and sore areas that needed extra pressure. I was able to be completely in the moment which took away any of life’s stresses and distractions. It also helped that the rain sound was so soothing. I will be back
- DANIEL
Incredible, I had Alex. Awesome sports massage and loosened my knots. Will be back
- HARRY
Just thought I would let you know how good that massage was. I have never had a massage like that before. Some of the strokes & positions & stretches were fantastic. I was very relaxed & aroused throughout & you built up lots of sexual energy. It was a fantastic experience.

Thank you to Alex for the massage and stretch today. A weight I forget that I carry is gone. While I'm sure I talked too much, thanks Alex for putting up with me — and for those unexpected chuckles. I'm still grinning. :)
