 EveryBody is a Sea of Currents


When people ask me, Gayle Temkin,  what kind of massage I do, I say:

"A good one!  What kind do you want?"


My intuitive hands know how to comprehend bodies.  For example, stress and pain have different qualities;  they feel choppy and move against one another as pictured.

Knowing how to quell currents is a unique talent of mine. 

You'll leave feeling calm, cool, and cheerful.


Consider booking yourself in if you want to feel at rest and connected within yourself. 


I call what I do OceanaBodyworkTM.


 I’ve been doing massage for over thirty years in Illinois, Florida and Texas.  My Texas registration number is 0920.  I am the former owner of Austin Massage Associates, and the Founding Directors for OceanaBodywork.com and the Coalition for Emotional Literacy (theCEL).  You can find out more about the Coalition at www.theCEL.org.


I began my massage career in 1978.  Logging thousands of hours around my table -- practicing numerous modalities -- here are some of the techniques I use:


  • Swedish
  • Esalen
  • Polarity
  • Electro-Magnetic Therapy
  • REIKI , Level III
  • Deep-Tissue
  • Trigger Point
  • Hydrotherapy
  • Gait Training
  • Reflexology
  • The SCENAR (biofeedback instrument to relieve pain)
  • Hot/Cold Stones
  • Kinetic Therapies and more

The Treatment Room is maintained as a Hallowed, Sacred Space.  There are:


  •  Candles for purity of spirit
  •  Bells for clarity of mind
  •  Special stones for grounding to the earth
  •  Feathers for the lightness of being
  •  Crystals for self-empowerment
  •   Essences, when useful, to
      • soothe the nervous system
      • clear sinuses
      • sharpen mental focus
      • enhance sensuality
      • revitalize the body

 Daily rituals clear the space



Unless you are a physician referral, we don't do long intake interviews.
