Yes. Pressure is always customized to your needs and comfort level. Deep tissue techniques can be incorporated when appropriate, but massage should never feel harmful or overwhelming. Communication during your session is encouraged.
Massage should be effective, not painful. Some techniques may feel intense at times, but discomfort should never cross into pain. Please let me know if pressure ever needs to be adjusted.
Try to arrive a few minutes early so you can relax and settle in. Stay hydrated, and avoid heavy meals immediately before your session.
Your first visit includes a brief intake to discuss your health history, goals, and any areas of concern. You will always be properly draped for privacy and comfort. The session is tailored specifically to your needs.
Only to your level of comfort. Most clients undress to their underwear, but you are welcome to remain more covered if you prefer. Proper draping is used at all times.
This varies based on your goals. Some clients benefit from weekly or bi-weekly sessions, while others come in monthly for maintenance or stress relief. I’m happy to help you decide what frequency works best for you.
