Welcome to my little corner of cyberspace.

Many people have commented over the years about
the title “Professional Sensualist.” “How did you
come up with such a perfect word combination?” “What
inspired you to choose that description?”

It goes back to when I was just
starting to explore the possibilities of offering my
arts to those who seek them. I was a Professional
Dominatrix in the Bay Area at the time. As a Dominant,
one of the ways that I described myself was a Sensual
Dominant; my focus was the art of touch and the scenes.

I understand that the arts of power exchange and
intense sensation are not for everyone.
As I explored my own sensual side,
I came to feel a need in the world for
those who offer sensual services.
Human connection is a critically important aspect of human
sharing. There have been scientific studies that show
infants who are not touched do not thrive.
I believe adults have a similar, deep-seated need. As a
culture, we seem to be removing ourselves from our
families, from our partners, from ourselves. This
separation has created some interesting social
disfunction.

” Touch is one of the most essential elements of
human development, a profound method of communication,
a critical component of the health and growth of
infants, and a powerful healing force” (Bowlby, 1952;
Harlow, 1971, 1986).

“Ample research has demonstrated
that tactile stimulation is extremely important for
development and maintenance of physiological and
psychological regulation in infants, children and
adults” (Field, 1998, 2003; Montagu, 1971, 1986).

“Touch has been an essential part of ancient healing
practices. Touch has roots in shamanic and religious
practices, and is reported to have been an integral
part of health care practices and medicine since their
emergence from the realms of religion and magic”
(Levitan & Johnson, 1986; Smith, Clance & Imes,
1998).

With awareness and choice we can create something
different than disfunction.

I am a creative romantic. Always have been. I’ve always
crafted elaborate scenarios. “Why not open myself
up and create beautiful sharings in a Professional
context?” I asked myself.

Thus was a Professional Sensualist born.

The possibilities abound… let’s play!
