What to expect
Massage guidelines:
I'm honored to set the tone for your first massage. Although this experience is completely customizable, there are some basic guidelines to follow pre, present and post massage to ensure that you get the most from our time together.
Pre-Massage
- The day before your massage make sure to hydrate, eat and rest well.
- If possible, print and fill out your intake form ahead of time and think about what goals you might have for this massage.
Massage day!
- Please begin by silencing your phone as you come into the studio, this helps reduce distractions and shows respect for our shared space.
- Come in comfortable clothing and shoes that are easy to remove. I will invite you to dress down to your comfort level which could mean shorts and/or bra or fully undressed. Either way you will be properly draped with a sheet and blanket at all times.
- Remove all jewelry, glasses, hearing aids and tie your hair up loosely. This allows the massage to flow naturally.
- Throughout the massage the most important thing you can do is Breathe and Communicate your needs as they arise.
- Keep in mind that just about everything in this space is adjustable and customizable: lighting, temperature, music, pressure etc.
Post Massage
- After your massage I will offer you water and feedback about our session. This may include pointing out areas of tension or holding patterns in your body. I might suggest certain stretches or exercises to support those areas.
- I'll get you checked out and suggest a time frame for re-booking.
- For the rest of the day be extra kind to yourself. This may look like taking a nap, a bath or a gentle walk. If that's not available than I encourage you to slow your roll as you go about your day and be mindful of your body's needs.
