Frequently-Asked Questions

First piece of advice: Speak up

It all begins with you. This is YOUR session, your experience.

I want you to enjoy every minute and benefit as much as possible from your time with me. If you would like anything changed, please let me know.

If the pressure is too much I can ease up,

If you don’t want me to touch certain areas then I will work in only areas you want,

If you don’t like the music, just let me know. I have clients that ask to listen to their favorite True Crime podcast during their massage and that’s totally fine with me. It’s your time. Find your joy.

Communicate with me and I will do my best to make you more comfortable. Here are some common questions I have from new clients:

  • Please leave your jewelry at home if you can. I have had many clients leave earrings or a necklace behind after a massage. Of course I will keep them safe for you until you return to pick them up but if it is precious to you don’t chance losing it. Wear something easy to get on and off. After a massage you probably won’t want to put anything constricting back on, or something with a lot of buttons. I have a couple clients that come in pajama pants. If you are coming right after work, that is fine too, come as you are.

    As for on the table, you may undress to YOUR level of comfort. Many people prefer to keep their underwear on during a massage, while others choose to be nude. I have had a couple even stay fully dressed, in this case I recommend you wear something thin that I can work through. I need to feel your problem areas. I will leave the room so you can undress and lie face down on the massage table under the top sheet and blanket. Regardless if you choose to maintain clothing or not, I will always ensure that you are properly covered at all times.

  • In general, massages should not hurt. I may find a tender spot during the massage, and if so let me know I will find a less painful way to address the issue. If the pressure is too intense, speak up immediately and I will adjust. Certain techniques may result in soreness during the days following a massage, similar to that of a great workout. The more WATER you drink before and after a massage directly affects this. The more you drink and pee out ridding the body of the lactic acid and other waste I released from being stored in your muscles during the massage the better! Purge it! Don’t let it redeposit back in your muscles making them sore again. DRINK WATER.

  • Some people enjoy having a conversation during their massage, talking helps them relax. Some people sleep, no judgement if you snore or drool, I take it as a compliment that you can get that relaxed with me. Regardless of your choice, be sure to speck up during the massage if there is anything you’d like adjusted (temperature of the table or the room, pressure, music, etc).

  • Not a problem, please do not feel uncomfortable or embarrassed. My daughter has eczema and psoriasis runs in my husband’s family. I will do my best to keep you comfortable. I don’t care about your body hair unless it’s at that stage where it’s like rubbing a cat’s tongue, that kind of hurts my forearms and I probably won’t work that area as deep.

  • No. At this time it is just me and my one table.

  • Cash, card, venmo, or cash app.
