My name is Giovanni Udoni, I am a professional massage therapist specialized in Ayurveda. I was born in Italy and grew up there but have lived in Berlin since 2003.
Massage methods and holistic remedies have always fascinated me, especially traditional medicine, philosophy, nutrition and various aspects of our human nature.
After visiting several Asian countries, it was on a journey through India in 2009 where I discovered Ayurveda. One year later I went back to India with the intention of deepening my knowledge on ayurvedic massages and treatments. I took part in massage classes and after that my life changed. As a result of this amazing experience my interest expanded also to ayurvedic philosophy, nutrition and herbal medicine.
In the following years I started learning more ayurvedic massages and treatments on my own. My passion for Ayurveda continued to grow until I decided definitively to become a professional ayurvedic massage therapist.
I started my education at the Ayurveda school A.I.M.A. (Indo-Italian Association for Ayurvedic massage) in Milan. After 3 years of theory and practice I attained my diploma as an Ayurveda massage therapist. I then decided to learn something more about the world of massage and I went to the school “Terramedus – Akademie für Gesundheit” in Berlin. There I learnt the practice of Swedish massage as well as various other wellness treatments.
For me a massage is not just about the manual skills, a massage encompasses empathy, compliance, contact, trust and love. Through massages I wish to transmit wellness and energy and to awaken deep feelings, perceptions and passions in human beings. For me it’s also a way of contending the daily efforts of modern times and the stressful pace of work, reminding us that life is also a good chance to contemplate the world around us. Awaken your consciousness and let your spirit come back to you through massage.
