The Setting

Your massage will take place in a warm, quiet and secure setting.  Our heated tables are custom designed for your comfort.  We have a large variety of soothing music or environmental sounds available for your selection.

A light hydrating oil or lotion will be applied to your skin as a lubricant,  (therefore you may wish to bring or wear comfortable clothing to change into after your massage).  We use both water based and oil based products.   So please ask  if you should have a preference.

Deep heat, essential oils and hot rocks are often incorporated into the treatment as well to facilitate deeper relaxation.

What do I wear?

Many clients are worried about what to wear for the massage.  Usually clients are fully disrobed, however, if you are not comfortable disrobing completely we will adapt to your needs.  

Safety and Ethics

Clients will be carefully draped with sheets and blankets at all times to ensure that a sense of safety and propriety is maintained.  If at any time during a treatment session you become uncomfortable you are encouraged to let us know immediately.

Parents are encouraged to be present in the room at all times while children are on the table.  Children will remain partially clothed.

Reminders

Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate!!  Massage has a very detoxifying effect on the body so it will be especially important that you drink plenty of water before and after your massage!  This ensures that your organs and muscles receive the support they need to process any toxins released during the treatment.

It is advisable to enjoy some downtime after your appointment to maximize the effects of your massage and to transition gently back into your fast paced life.  If it is possible, schedule your next appointment on a day when you can kick back a little.  Go slowly, take a nap or go for a gentle walk.  Breathe!
