If it's Your First Massage or Information on my Massage Routine:
- If by your appointment time you havent completed this, you will fill out an intake form that authorizes me to give you a massage within my scope as a massage therapist and within standards of your health history as well as providing your consent to treatment.
- If you have an area of particular concern, such as a tight neck, you can ask me to spend more time in this area or have a treatment that is focused only on one to three areas. If there are areas you prefer not being massaged (such as glutes, face, or feet), you can indicate this on the massage form you fill out before your session. Depending on your preferences, you can ask me to use light, medium, or firm pressure.
- We will go over your information and decide on a treatment plan for you.
- I will exit the room to allow you to undress to your comfort level. Most massage and bodywork techniques are traditionally performed with the client unclothed and underneath a sheet however, it is entirely up to you what you want to wear. You should undress to your level of comfort.
- A sheet will be present for you to cover up with and I will use appropriate draping with the sheet to provide you coverage on areas not being massage at that time. Only areas that I will be working on will be uncover to provide me access to the area being massaged.
- I will knock a minute or two later after leaving the room to check if you are undress to your comfort and under the sheets.
- I will use an oil or lotion to allow for smooth and long stokes.
- Soothing music will be played to enhance your relaxation. A table warmer is provided and if needs to be adjusted or you prefer no heat, let me know.
- A full body massage will begin on either your back or your stomach and flip over at the halfway point. If certain areas are being massaged then I will let you know.
- I will let you know when your session is over. I will wait outside the room for you until you are fully clothed and opened the door when your ready.
- We will discuss how the treatment went and if there are any changes that need to be made for future massage sessions.
