Hopefully you’ll find the answer to all your questions here. If you don’t just drop me an email, always happy to help and I’ll probably even add it on here!
“Where do I have to go for my treatment?”
Your massage will be performed at XXX. The address and all relevant information will be sent in an automatic email confirmation.
“How accessible is your massage studio?”
ANSWER
“Are you LGBTQIA+ friendly?”
Yes absolutely, it is an important part of my ethos. I use gender neutral language when discussing body parts and offer a non judgemental space. All of my treatments are carried out in salons that are LGBTQIA+ friendly.
“Is there an age limit?”
Due to my insurance, I can only carry out massage therapy on 18+ clients
“How long will my Massage last?”
It will depend on which massage option you have chosen. The lengths of the massage are on the Services Available page. Every massage will have a 15 minute health consultation beforehand, so please ensure you arrive with plenty of time to spare!
“Does it hurt?”
Simple answer, it depends on the client. I will make regular checks with you during your treatment on the levels of pressure and if you want a stronger or lighter approach. Tight muscles and knots can be uncomfortable and painful at times when they are being released, but I must make it clear that you do not have to suffer to achieve effective muscular release!
“Do I have to undress fully?”
It depends on which treatment you have purchased. For a full-body massage you will be required to undress down to your underwear. I will let you get changed while I wait outside the treatment room. You will always be fully covered with warm towels throughout treatment and the only exposed part of you will be the area I am massaging at the time. In addition, before the massage I will inform you of all the areas of your body I will be treating. You have the option to request me to not treat a certain area, just let me know! I will never massage any part of you that you are not comfortable with.
“Are there any side effects or things I should know for aftercare?”
You can feel a bit sore, tender and tired afterwards for about 24 hours. My best suggestion is to take it easy and rest and drink lots of water without doing any exercise.
“Will I need to come back regularly?”
That completely depends on you and how you feel massage aids you in your day to day. It can be useful for regular treatment to ‘keep on top’ of knots developing and ensure your overall muscle health.
“What do I need to bring?”
There’s nothing you NEED to bring with you. However, I do recommend bringing a bottle of water for after the treatment to keep hydrated. You will be provided with towels upon arrival.
“What oils do you use?”
I have a few options of massage oils. I have homemade CBD Massage Oil, homemade Lavender and Eucalyptus Massage Oil and Sunflower Oil. When you arrive for your massage, you have the choice as to any oil you wish for your treatment.
“I don’t want to chat throughout the treatment. Is that ok?”
That’s totally fine, the only chat we need to have are the essentials for the treatment!
“Can I/I do not want to listen to music throughout the treatment?”
I normally put lo-fi music as a standard, however I’ll always ask what you would prefer, I’ve had country to heavy metal requested even! If you’d prefer nothing at all, just let me know.
“Can we have breaks?”
Yes absolutely at any time, just let me know. Please just note that breaks will have to be included in the total massage time booked.
“I’m quite nervous about a treatment, can we chat before the session for reassurance?”
Yes I’m totally happy to chat any client through beforehand to reassure you about the treatment and talk through anything you might want or not want to happen in the treatment.
