Like in a nest, in hands attentive to your needs, you can enjoy a renewed energy and a recovered sense of fullness.
A precious blend of Western and Eastern techniques, its purpose is to reconnect with your body and your heart, through the kind of care we need to feel at ease in our own skin.
A deeply enveloping and warm massage, to give back the sense of containment sometimes sought in cigarettes or other "comforters". It allows both to relax the body and to release the psychological tensions caused by life's difficulties.
Rediscover your unity and your energy in a moment of weariness.
The hands weave, around you, an energetic cocoon to gather "the pieces" together and recover your unity within a feeling of protection and fullness.
Offer yourself pleasure and softness.
At other moments the hands slip beneath you to support and cradle you, allowing you to surrender to the softness and sensuality of the moment in a renewed sense of trust.
The hands linger, attentive to your sensitivity, on cold spots or those that awaken your inner tensions, to restore the warmth that will bring comfort.

The Cocoon® massage in practice
The Cocoon® massage is Jean-Paul Lacroix's signature creation, offered since 2005 at home, in Paris and the close suburbs. It is a deeply enveloping wellness massage with warm oil, requiring no particular preparation: each session begins with a moment of exchange to welcome whatever you are going through, and the massage then adapts to your sensitivity of the moment.
People often choose it in times of fatigue, separation or overwork — or simply when the need for gentleness makes itself felt. Where the tantric massage opens a path towards vital energy and body awareness, the Cocoon® massage favours envelopment and inner safety: being held, gathered, rocked. The two approaches complement each other, and many people alternate between them depending on the moments of their life.
A session costs 250 € (see all prices). To discover what others have experienced, browse the testimonials and the videos; and if you would like to learn to massage, Cocoon also offers a residential tantric massage and tantra-shamanism workshop.
