Talking you through your first treatment.
I offer massage based on time rather than treatment areas, so that I can tailor the massage to suit the individual. Before your first visit we will have 5 - 30 minutes on the phone for a consultation so that I can get to know you and we can decide if there are areas you would like more focus and whether it is a relaxation treatment or easing of muscles (or both!)
There will be questions about your lifestyle so that I can build up a picture of your repetitive actions that may be causing muscle tension and to help me decide what strokes are best to use.
The consultation also serves to make sure that I am carrying out the treatment safely, adapting if needed, according to any ailments you might have. There is a list of contraindications on my homepage, if you suffer from any of these, unfortunately I am not able to carry out the massage. Feel free to give me a call to discuss.
Next we decide what oil/wax is best for your skin (or the one you like the smell of most!). See oils I'm currently using here.
If you prefer not to use oils, we can discuss working through clothing.
I will talk you through the best way to get on the couch (let me know if you think you'd prefer the electric couch that can be lowered), then leave the room allowing you a moment to undress. Leaving your undergarments remaining on, you position yourself on the couch, covering yourself with a blanket.
You will let me know when you are ready, I then enter the room, make sure your comfortable, cover you in more blankets for snugness and begin the massage.
You'll be left feeling relaxed or invigorated, depending on your chosen outcome. Take a look at my clients reviews to see how they felt afterwards.
