"My name is Choo Kah Ying. I have been honoured and privileged to have known Roger as massage professional and friend for the last 10 years. He introduced me to the power of the loving touch when he massaged Sebastien, my then-9-year-old autistic son. I was moved to tears to see someone who professed to be inexperienced with autistic kids interact and connect with Sebastien in such an authentic and respectful fashion. (A detailed description of their first massage experience is documented in my book, Raising Sebastien: Realising the Potential of Your Autistic Child.)

 

Over the next decade, Roger would have massaged/counselled me through my divorce, the death of Timmi — my beloved cat, and my rocky journey of parenting Sebastien. Always couching his advice in playful terms that belie their wisdom and power, he has challenged me to embrace out-of-the-box attitudes towards Sebastien. Although my parenting of Sebastien, now 19, continues to be fraught with challenges on a daily basis, I have also come to recognise that my journey with him has been a “gift” that is constantly pushing me out of my comfort zone and forcing me to address my own limitations. 

 

Nonetheless, to this day, what has lingered in my heart, which testifies to Roger’s gift of love and wellness to the world, is the sendoff he gave F., a friend of mine who was going through the last phase of his struggle with cancer. That afternoon, Roger held the hand of F. and smiled gently at him, as F. slipped in and out of consciousness. Roger created a circle of love around F. by having a handful of us in the room link hands together with one another. From time to time, F. would open his eyes that were bright with serenity and joy and thank Roger. After a while, F. awoke completely and proceeded to chant loudly with renewed energy. As his family joined him in the chant, we decided to leave to give them their space. We learned later that F. had passed away hours later in a complete state of peace, which also gave F.’s family tremendous solace."

"Roger Curtis is one of the best massage therapists I have encountered. He has great technique, getting right to the source of the discomfort and fixing it. 

I have so many good things to say. He has large strong gental hands that just seem to roll out the kinks and strains and pains effortlessly. Roger is a good listener with a lot of knowledge to share if you ask."

"I received Roger's massage when I was undergoing big changes in my life -relocation from Asia to Europe (I am an Asian), and job change. I was a bit worried and sick because I am going to face a great deal of uncertainty arising from such big changes.  The morning after I got his massage, I suddenly became clear and confident about my both relocation and employer change. Moreover, strangely, I couldn't wait to go there and have fun in my new journey. It was a feeling that I have never experienced before. Roger's massage is truly unique to me and shifting myself into higher self. I felt lucky for me to be able to encounter him."

"I have known Roger since 2005 when I attended a workshop where he was providing BodyWork.  I have had all different types of bodywork before but nothing like the work Roger did.

 

Roger’s work has developed into something quite unique as he is working on several layers of energy in the body simultaneously allowing for more breakthroughs.

I can highly recommend Roger’s bodywork sessions. He has a wonderful kind, gentle, humorous, safe energy."

"My lifetime experience of male behaviour had made it difficult to trust males especially in the context of massage. Roger Curtis has been a big factor in restoring my faith in men. His kindness, gentleness and sensitive manner have always enabled me to feel safe both with his massaging and his counselling"
