Monkey Massage

… so we’re just going to work on relaxing that scalp for a few more minutes, then it’s off to the whirlpool before the aromatherapy. Remind me again: Did you want the banana- or the coconut-scented candles?

  2. victoreia says:

    Monkey is very relaxed!

    (And the scalp massage is why I pay the bucks for the expensive salon hair-cut!)

  8. Dash says:

    And the wee minkeh is having her head ‘ssaged at the beach, no less!

  9. Martha in Washington says:

    I’m pretty sure that’s the look I would get on my face if anyone ever massaged my head.

  10. biscuithead says:

  11. dub1 says:

    It’s like looking in a mirror [except the pink sweater and blue eyeshadow]

  12. Kar says:

    Is that thing purring? And can I blame him/her?

  13. Alice says:

    It’s worth looking at this gals other youtube videos. She seems to make a habit of massaging cute animubuls :) Soooo prosh!!!

      Toucan and sloth massage are my favourites…. especially the toucan- it closes its eyes and chirps in massagsmic bliss.

  14. blair says:

    all that needs is a couple of slices of gherkin (un-piggled, of course)

  15. Martina says:

    Dogs look like that too, when I massage their heads. Cats too!!! Even if I’ve never met said dogs and cats!! But the monkey is ONE lucky monkey!!

    I live with the ex-boyfriend– he is my best friend… And he still massages my scalp. It makes me sleepy.

  16. Theresa says:

    And now, the obligatory Peter Gabriel ref, short version:
    Monkey!
    Monkeh-eeeeeeee!

  17. bob drummond says:

    I wish my wife Marlene could massage my head neck and shoulders like that .
    It would feel like Heaven !

  18. Jan says:

    Now convince me that we aren’t descended from apes…! That face is just soooo human. Cutest thing I’ve ever seen on here :)

  19. Rachael says:

    There is someone out there whose job it is to gently massage tiny minkees’ heads? And that someone is not me??? Life is so unfair!

  20. Kim says:

    I’ve already massaged my dog’s head and whispered “Monkey massage” … it was almost as relaxing as this lovely video.

  21. skippymom says:

    1. This is just so sweet. I may have to watch it a few dozen times.
    2. I wonder whether monkeys give good massages.
    3. Is there somebody peeking around the left rear corner of the blue thing?

  22. Leilani says:

    Ummmmmmmmmm, are we sure that monkey’s alive?

  23. That’s no monkey, that’s Karl Pilkinton!

  24. Gundea says:

    Why do the monkey wear a sweater ? Monkeys do not belong in captivity!

  25. Erin says:

    Why is it wearing a sweater????

  26. lara says:

    poor monkey looks like toy for tourists. but at least he’s enjoying this massage.

  27. Cappington says:

    I am the person who massaged said monkey and posted the video. I’m currently away from home- massaging my way around SE Asia. Please stay tuned in the coming few weeks for other animal head massage videos.

  28. Cappington says:

    Also, I agree with Lara, monkeys shouldn’t be kept as pets or for tourists entertainment. However, this particular monkey had been born with a deformed hand and lower arm and as I was told, had been abandoned by his mother. Conclusion- nature and tourism can be cruel but you got to admit, for those few minutes, everything was right in his world. Pretty right in my world too!
