Question 1

I've never had a massage before. What should I expect?

Accepted Answer

First of all, welcome! Many of our clients come to us for their very first massage, and we love helping people feel comfortable and at ease.Before you arrive, you'll complete a brief online intake form that will be emailed to you once your appointment has been made. The therapist will review your intake form before your session. When you arrive you will have a conversation with your therapist about your health history, goals, areas of concern, and massage preferences. We'll explain everything and answer any questions you have before your session begins.Our goal is to make your experience relaxing, comfortable, and tailored specifically to you.

Question 2

Do I need to undress completely?

Accepted Answer

Not at all. Your comfort is our top priority. You should undress to your level of comfort. Some clients remove all clothing except undergarments, while others prefer to remain more fully clothed. Your therapist will work with whatever feels most comfortable for you.You will be professionally draped with a sheet and blanket at all times, and only the area being worked on will be uncovered.

Question 3

What if  I'm nervous or feel awkward?

Accepted Answer

That's completely normal!Many first-time clients feel a little nervous before their first massage. Our therapists are warm, kind, professional, and experienced at helping clients feel relaxed and comfortable.There is no "right" way to receive a massage. We're here to support you and ensure you feel safe, respected, and cared for throughout your session.

Question 4

What if  the pressure is too much or not enough?

Accepted Answer

Please tell us! Either on your intake form, before the session, or during the session. Getting the pressure just right is hugely important in helping you have the best experience possible and wanting to come back again.When we ask how the pressure feels, we genuinely want to know. Every person is different, and your preferences matter.If you'd like more pressure, less pressure, or if something feels uncomfortable, simply let your therapist know. We welcome your feedback and want to create the best experience possible.

Question 5

What if  something hurts?

Accepted Answer

Massage should never feel unbearable.Some therapeutic or deep work may feel intense at times, but you should always be able to breathe freely and feel comfortable communicating with your therapist. If anything feels painful or uncomfortable, please let us know immediately so we can make adjustments. We need to know and cannot feel what your body is feeling.
