What can I expect in the first session?

I have a thorough consultation form that helps me gather lots of information so that I can fully understand your situation, pain and your reason for coming for a massage. This is then followed by a massage / MLD / scar work session to begin the hands on work with you.

What should I wear?

Please wear comfortable clothing: underwear that you are comfortable in. For measuring for garments or for a postural assessment I will need to look at your spine and other joints, so it might be worth bringing a pair of shorts and a close fitting crop top for comfort. For most sessions I ask you to undress to your underpants - you will be covered with towels at all times. There is a changing room for your comfort. If you are having an Indian Head Massage then you will remain clothed during the massage, so wearing loose, comfortable clothing is important.

Will I be covered up during the massage?

What will the massage be like?

How many massages will I need?

How can I pay for my treatment?

Is there parking?

How do I book an appointment?

Yes, I use towels to cover you up throughout the massage. My ‘towel management’ skills are excellent, even if I say so myself! The only part of your body showing will be the part that I am working on. I also have blankets if it is chilly.

I use a range of techniques to suit your needs. Depending on which type of treatment you are having will govern which techniques used. Some techniques are very relaxing and grounding, some may be more specific on a particular muscle, during remedial massage. When I touch on a trigger point you might feel some discomfort, but we discuss this during the treatment and work to disperse these trigger points, therefore ridding you of your pain. During MLD or scar work I will be working very lightly and often people fall asleep while receiving treatment.

This very much depends on your situation. Some people only need a couple of sessions, but, for remedial massage, I tell my patients that it usually takes up to six sessions to be pain free. For MLD it will depend on if you are coming to me after surgery or for a different reason, we shall discuss this during our first session. After that time you might like to come occasionally for maintenance sessions if you feel your symptoms might return.

You can pay by cash on the day or in advance by bank transfer.

Yes, there is ample parking on my driveway.
