What to expect

Most adults rarely experience touch from other adults where the intention of that touch is neither sexual nor abusive. We understand that you may have some hesitancy and reservation about recieving a massage.

First and foremost, we will ask questions to make sure there aren’t any conditions present that rule out having a massage due to any health risks.

Second, We want to know what your needs are regarding the massage and be sure both of us are clear about what your expectations and goals for the session are.

Third, the information you provide helps the massage therapist determine what techniques to use and how to structure the session.

Whatever you choose to wear should leave you with a feeling of maximum comfort while being treated by someone you have not met before. Often, new clients start out using shorts or bathing suits and convert to sheets when they are more comfortable.

Next, you will be asked to remove your clothing to your level of comfort. The therapist will leave the room and provide privacy while you undress. You should take off only as much as you are comfortable removing.

A sheet is provided for draping during the massage. The therapist will uncover only the part of the body being massaged, insuring that modesty is respected at all times. The draping also keeps you warm. You should also remove any jewelry or other articles that might interfere with the massage.

If you prefer, we also offer a fully clothed massage that may be administered on a massage table. This may be in the form of a full-body massage for relaxation or for a more specific massage designed to address a particular pain or injury.

The massage takes place on a comfortable, padded massage table. The massage therapist will tell you what position to lie in on the table.

Expect a peaceful and comfortable environment for the massage. The massage therapist will play music during the massage. If you don’t like music playing, ask the massage therapist to change the music or turn the music off.

The massage therapist may use oil or lotion, which reduces drag on the skin while performing the massage strokes. If you are allergic to some oils or lotions, be sure to tell your massage therapist so you both can make sure the ingredients in the oil or lotion do not bother you. We can use a powder instead of oil if you are allergic.

Depending on your needs, the massage therapist will massage either the full body or only specific areas that need attention.

If there is anything that does not feel comfortable or right or you do not like, you have the right to ask the massage therapist to stop.

After the massage is finished, you will once again be provided with privacy in order to get dressed.

If there is time to do so, you may ask the massage therapist any questions you have. The usual length of a session is an hour. A massage session on a table generally should be a minimum of 30 minutes and maximum of 120 minutes.
