Our manifesto
A better way to discoverindependent massage professionals.
MasseurMatch gives clients clearer information before first contact and gives independent therapists a professional public presence without putting a booking platform between them.
Directory only
Discovery and direct contact, without a booking middleman.
Human reviewed
Profiles are reviewed before they become public.
Independent
Therapists control their practice, rates, and client relationships.
Why we exist
Less guesswork. More useful context.
Finding the right independent therapist should not require piecing together anonymous listings, incomplete profiles, and unclear contact paths.
01
Clear discovery
City, service, session format, published rates, and profile details are organized so clients can compare what actually matters before reaching out.
Search with context
02
Visible trust signals
Profile review and identity verification are shown as specific signals with specific limits, rather than broad claims that imply more than was checked.
No badge inflation
03
Direct relationships
Once a client finds a therapist, communication and any service arrangement happen directly with that independent provider.
No booking commission
Two sides, one directory
Built for the person searching and the professional being found.
For clients
Compare before first contact.
Read the profile, understand the therapist's location and session formats, review published services and rates, and use visible trust signals as one part of your own decision.
MasseurMatch never substitutes a stock photo for a real provider and does not turn a profile review into a guarantee of service quality or professional licensing.
For therapists
Own the relationship with your clients.
Build a public profile around your actual practice, appear in relevant city and service discovery, and publish the contact information you want prospective clients to use.
MasseurMatch does not take a percentage of session revenue or control how you run your independent practice.
What we stand for
Trust is strongest when the limits are visible.
The directory is designed around precise claims, professional boundaries, and useful information rather than manufactured certainty.
Specific verification
An Identity Verified badge means identity evidence was reviewed. It does not mean MasseurMatch verified a professional license, performed a background check, or endorsed the provider.
Professional content
Profiles and photos are moderated before publication, with policies intended to keep the directory lawful, professional, non-sexual, and useful for genuine massage discovery.
Responsible privacy
Sensitive identity evidence is handled privately during review and raw verification images are deleted after the final decision, while limited audit status can be retained.
Meet the team
Technology shaped by perspective.
MasseurMatch is built by people who believe thoughtful technology can make independent professionals easier to discover while keeping trust, clarity, and human connection at the center.
Founder & CEO · Cuba
Rene
Founder & Chief Executive · Web Development Specialist · University of Havana graduate
Born and educated in Cuba, Rene brings a technical perspective shaped by curiosity, resourcefulness, and a strong foundation in web development. A graduate of the University of Havana, he approaches digital products with an eye for both the systems behind them and the people who ultimately use them.
At MasseurMatch, that perspective supports our goal of creating a faster, clearer, and more dependable experience for independent professionals and the clients looking to discover them. His work reflects the principle behind the platform itself: technology should remove friction, build confidence, and make meaningful connections easier.
MasseurMatch exists because of a decision he considered unfair. After being banned from a competing directory, Rene chose to answer it by building rather than arguing — starting the platform himself so that independent masseurs would not depend on a listing that can disappear without a clear reason.
As founder and chief executive, he is still building toward that goal: a better platform for masseurs, with rules that are written down, limits that are stated plainly, and therapists who keep control of their practice, their rates, and their client relationships.
Direct line
“If you have a problem and you need to talk to me directly, email me and I will be happy to help — whether it is your listing, your verification, or anything else on the platform. There is no anonymous support queue here. The message comes to me.”
