About Us

Raúl S-V Calderón MA, MFHT

Following many hours of massage treatments, privately and within the clinical environment, and an intensive training in both the best massage and yoga practices, Raúl S-V Calderón embarks on a new venture launching SANAR, Massage Therapy.

SANAR, “to heal” in Spanish, provides bespoke therapeutic treatments to ensure clients receive the appropriate level of care according to their needs and physical condition.

The unique insight that yoga knowledge provides to understand the human body and mind, combined with the therapeutic properties of the most advanced massage techniques, makes SANAR, Massage Therapy the right place to benefit from the long-lasting positive therapeutic effects of massage and/or yoga therapy. 

SANAR’s main mission is to provide an individualised and unhurried service to everyone, and to ensure that all treatments received meet clients’ expectations. Careful attention is given to consultation before, during and after any treatment.

“This new venture is informed by my experience, as well as fuelled by my passion and commitment to provide exquisite care and attention to my clients. I hope that on your first visit I can understand your needs, so I can treat you as you expect. I will be delighted to see you happy afterwards, and of course to see you again”. Raúl
