First-Time Clients
Your first visit is designed to be comfortable and informative:
- Arrival (10 minutes early): Complete brief intake forms
- Consultation (5-10 minutes): Discuss your health history, areas of concern, and goals
- Privacy: You'll have privacy to undress to your comfort level
- The Massage: Customized treatment based on your needs
- Communication: We'll check in on pressure and comfort
- After Care: Recommendations for stretches, water intake, and follow-up
Remember: This is YOUR session. We encourage questions and feedback throughout to ensure you're completely comfortable.
Wear whatever makes you comfortable:
- To your appointment: Comfortable, loose-fitting clothing
- During massage: Undress to YOUR comfort level
- Most clients: Undress completely for full-body work
- Always okay: Keep underwear on or stay fully clothed
Professional draping is always maintained: You'll be properly covered with sheets and blankets throughout the session. Only the area being worked on is uncovered. Your privacy and dignity are our top priorities.
Massage should never be painful! Here's what to expect:
- "Good hurt": Deep pressure that feels therapeutic
- Tender spots: Some areas may be sensitive
- Your control: You dictate the pressure level
- Communication: Speak up immediately if anything is uncomfortable
We use a 1-10 pressure scale:
- 1-3: Light touch, very relaxing
- 4-6: Medium pressure, most common
- 7-8: Deep tissue work
- 9-10: Too much - we never work here!
Remember: More pressure doesn't always mean better results. We'll find your perfect pressure level.
That's perfectly normal and actually encouraged!
Many clients fall asleep during massage, which indicates:
- Deep relaxation is occurring
- Your nervous system is calming
- Stress hormones are decreasing
- Healing processes are activating
Don't worry about:
- Snoring (it happens!)
- Stomach gurgling (sign of relaxation)
- Twitching (muscles releasing)
- Drooling (we have extra face cradle covers)
We'll gently wake you when it's time to turn over or when the session ends.
