FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Your Questions, Answered
WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT FROM MY FIRST SESSION?
After you arrive, we will take a moment to go over your individual concerns and preferences for the massage: areas of focus, level of pressure, and if the massage is going to be full body or not. Next I will go over how to get on the massage table and whether to start face up or face down. At this point I will step out of the room for you to disrobe and get on the table, under the sheet and blanket. It is fine to leave undergarments on, or have them off so long as you are covered by the sheet and blanket. During the massage you will remain modestly draped. After a few minutes, I will give a knock to check if you're all settled in on the table before re-entering to give the massage.
WHAT STYLE OF MASSAGE DO YOU DO?
Technically, the massage that I give ranges from Swedish to deep tissue, or a combination of the two, depending on the needs/preferences of the client. My approach changes for every client. Typically, I start out with medium pressure to bring blood into the area, and then transition toward slower, slightly deeper work. My intention is to find the "sweet spot" where the client can "feel it," but not to the point of discomfort.
DO YOU DO DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE?
The short answer is, "yes." I try to understand and work to meet the needs of every client and I would say that in general I tend to give a firm massage. That said, my own well-being is important to me, so if you like extremely deep massage, your needs/desires may surpass my limits.
