You will not need to bring any extra clothing Before you come. Stay hydrated before and after your massage. if you have any health conditions any reasons as to why you think massage is not good for you, please tell your therapist and check with your doctor before hand. We use a popular massage oil called Grapeseed Oil good for all skin types.
As with all treatments, inform your therapist of any medical conditions you may have and tell them if you are — or just think you might be — pregnant.
It’s best to avoid heavy meals and alcohol in the hours leading up to your massage.
What to expect from a massage?
Your massage will probably last around 60 or 90 minutes. Your therapist will give you time to undress privately and lie down on the massage table, which is usually padded for extra comfort, where you may cover yourself with towels. You don’t have to be completely exposed at any point; your therapist will uncover one little bit of you at a time depending on the area she is focusing on. If you’re worried about anything, don’t hesitate to say so.
Some therapists like to play music during massage, as it can help you to unwind. Don’t be afraid to say if you’d prefer not to have it – or indeed if you’re unhappy with anything else in the treatment room. Being content in your surroundings is important for relaxation and will help you sink happily into your massage.
The same goes for talking. Most therapists are very sensitive to how much their client wants to communicate and will limit or encourage conversation accordingly. Some people like to chat a bit; others don’t. It doesn’t matter as long as you’re comfortable, relaxed and receptive.
Afterwards, you’ll probably feel quite relaxed and maybe even sleepy, so give yourself plenty of time to unwind. Savor the feeling of having every muscle in your body gently stretched and smoothed out.
