Description

Specialties

Eli is both a massage therapist and a gifted healer with a natural instinct that guides him as he meets your needs. With a deep understanding of trauma release, he meets the client where they are, offering his skills to bring them to a calm, relaxed state with a feeling of both trust and safety.

Eli provides quality detailed bodywork using a variety of techniques including Swedish, deep tissue, Thai massage, reiki, cranio-​sacral, sports medicine, yogic stretching and beyond. His international training and his born ability to hear the body, address its needs, and bring about a deeper state of peace is tailored to fit your personal requirements.

This is massage therapy at its best, where the emotional and spiritual meet and are addressed as well as the physical, offering a safe space to release past pain and to move towards a freer, less painful future.

History

Established in 2007.

During a three-​year service in a military tank battalion, my body was injured over and over again. I searched for ways to heal both the physical effects of my time in the military, as well as the residual emotional trauma I endured. I went for a free massage workshop one day and started practicing with friends. Through massage I found that my muscles recovered from sports activities faster, long term back problems dissipated, and I began to sleep better. The touch itself helped my nervous system calm down, helped me feel more connected and more at ease. Soon after I realized I had a real talent for helping and healing people with my hands.

For years I took workshops in Tel Aviv, Los Angeles and San Francisco, offering pro bono services as I developed a better understanding of my own body and my own healing abilities. In 2007 I formalized my massage training with certification from the San Francisco School of Massage. I have been formally practicing massage therapy ever since.

My interest in bodywork goes a long way back to an early childhood interest for touch and healing through touch. I do my bodywork with my accumulated knowledge and deep intuititive abilities to find the tension and relieve it effortlessly. My massage is composed from a profound intuition mixed with swedish, deep tissue and Thai massage techniques. I am a professional therapist, and a compassionate fellow human being to meet. Hope to meet you too.

Eli is a special soul, one of those rare people you meet once in a lifetime and will never forget. He is a gifted healer with a skilled touch and a patient and personal demeanor. I enjoyed my bodywork session on a physical and also deeply spiritual level. Do yourself a favor and let him share his gift with you, at least once. Thank you, Eli!

Amazing massage! Really felt like Eli was in tune with my needs and listened to my requests. I came into the massage incredibly stressed and with a sore back– I left feeling relaxed, calm, and like I could breathe again. I can’t wait to go back, thanks Eli!

Bitches be trippin? Bossman nagging? Taxman knocking at the door? Dogs barking literally and figuratively? Caught up in the rat race? Stomach in knots? Wound up? Stressed out? Coming in hot?
Eli can help you.
Eli is a true healer. He has a kind, nurturing presence that immediately assists me in dialing myself back a notch. He takes time before the massage session to connect with me and help me relax to the point where I am more open to the healing he provides. He’s even taken me through guided meditation to calm me. Living in the Bay Area is wonderful, but let’s face it… it can be crowded at times, traffic can be gnarly, life can be stressful. We all need therapists like Eli to help us view the world differently and help us become more attuned to what our bodies are telling us. Finding an excellent massage therapist is a blessing! I’m glad to have met Eli and I highly commend him to you.

Eli gives a blissfully deep therapeutic massage. Having a number of chronic pain issues, I can tell him exactly what I need and he delivers on a consistent basis. Extremely skilled in his techniques, communicative, and knowledgeable about the body. Just generally a welcoming and kind person, and very easy to be around. So glad I found him!

Eli is INCREDIBLE.
I’ve had many massages throughout my life, and it is clear when a masseuse is sensitive to what you’re feeling, responding dynamically, and truly attuned to you vs. going through the motions of their pre-​choreographed massage.
Eli is a true healer. He starts off by asking how you’re doing and really getting into the present with you. His touch is strong yet soothing. He encourages you to stay in the moment with your breath. He even designs his space beautifully, with warm colors and soulful music.
I highly recommend Eli to everyone looking for a delicious, nurturing yet therapeutic massage!

Eli is an intuitive healer without being too over the top or spiritually intrusive. His massage work helped me get back into my body when I was having a hard time emotionally, and facilitated the release of a lot of emotions I was afraid to face before our session. He also helped balance my back and loosen my shoulders. He is skilled at what he does and conscientious and compassionate. I felt cared for.

The second I walked into the door i took a deep breath and relaxed. Eli accepted me with a big smile and a warm heart. The massage was professional, accurate and as a dancer my body got what he needed. He took good care of me and i was very very happy that i met Eli :)

Eli’s work extends beyond the blissfully physical, deep into the emotional and spiritual realms. At one particular point during the massaging, I remember feeling at home in myself in a way I hadn’t since childhood. Then afterwards, as he left me in the warm room to chill, I had a damn good, cathartic cry that I’d been needing for months. Keep working your magic, Eli!

I’ve had several massages c Eli. He has strong healing hands and pays attention deeply. Yes he moves my muscles around but also the energy and I always leave feeling nurtured & refreshed. If you pick Eli for your massage you can expect skilled work from a practitioner c excellent communication skills. Highly recommended.

Eli Zaturanski is a talented, experienced and skilled massage therapist, and I would suggest him to anyone. He really understands the body and how to combine different types of massage styles to give your muscles the work-​through they need. He tunes into my particular needs and I always feel like he is putting his entire mind and body into healing mine. After getting a massage from Eli, I feel less tense and my body feels healthier, but I also feel like my spirit is uplifted. I think this is because Eli is a real healer, and he can hear what my body needs, where I store tensions and emotions, and work through them with moving my limbs and through breathing. I also like that he will talk or be quiet depending on your mood, and since i usually like silence when i get a massage, this is very important! I also love the music he plays and the oils he uses. It is really a full body spirit music aroma makeover.

Eli is an incredible massage therapist. The treatment and care I am given each and every time makes me not only a returning customer, but makes me feel other massage pales in comparison. He incorporates yogic stretching and integrates many forms of body work into the session. He also really sticks with spots, massaging through and working on areas that need a lot of attention, allowing time and making me trust in his expertise and understanding of my body’s needs. He is thoughtful with his techniques and really wants you to have a relaxing experience as well as one that will be truly beneficial and restorative for your body. As an athlete and a professional who handles a lot of stress in their work, he assuages everything and really resets my body to a good place.

I guess there is little on this Earth better than a satisfying massage. I’ve had my second massage with Eli and am more awestruck than I was the first time.
From the moment you sit down to talk to him about what is going on with your body, his full attention is fixed on you. Its hard to explain but you will become aware that you are being completely heard, and that all of your concerns are being noted and affirmed.
I am very adamant about having deep tissue massage, and recently had one elsewhere that got down to the grizzle, but didn’t feel loving. Eli combines a great sensitivity with his strong pressure. He encourages you to sigh and breathe when he hits a rough spot (and oh man did I have some bad knots in my shoulders…).
He has incredible touch. I literally felt like I was floating afterwards and sort of rested for a good 10 minutes before I got up. Again, the benefit of this not being a salon but at his home is that you are not being ushered out in a hurry. I felt so cared for and relaxed. You have no idea what you are missing until you experience an Eli massage.
Either you’ll believe me or you wont, but know that you’ll only benefit inexplicably from one of the two options.

I got two healing massages from Eli, the most recent was last month.
What can I say– Eli has powerful hands with strong healing energies that vibrated throughout my body. He was receptive to my requests of avoiding areas while concentrating on others.
The space itself is cozy and warm with a comfortable massage table, clean and simple.
Eli is a warm and kind person with a wide smile and an open heart!
I’m definitely looking forward to my next session…
