Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to take my clothes off when I get a massage?

 

It is possible to receive a massage fully clothed. I can perform a massage regardless of attire but usually, depending on the type of massage, clients undress to their underwear. Don’t worry though, I will leave the room while you do this and there are large towels to cover yourself once on the massage bed. Intimate areas will remain covered during the treatment and it is very important to me that clients feel comfortable throughout. 

 

How many clothes do you take off for a massage?

 

As mention above, you will usually be asked to undress down to your underwear and lie face down on the massage bed. I always leave the room to allow you to undress in private, and large towels are provided so you can cover yourself.

 

What are the prices for massage in the UK?

 

Prices for a massage can vary hugely. Our prices are very reasonable, starting at only £30! For details of prices of individual treatments, please go to our booking page.

 

What to expect from a full body massage?

 

Before your massage, there will be time for a consultation where we can discuss your specific needs and any areas you would like me to focus on during the massage treatment. During a full body massage, I would usually include the back of the legs, the back and shoulders – the client then turns onto their front and I massage the front of the legs and feet, the arms and hands then the neck, face and head.

 

What not to say during a massage?

 

There aren’t too many hard and fast rules – some clients prefer to receive their massage without talking and would rather enjoy the relaxing music, while others like to talk throughout the massage. Either way, I’m happy to oblige.

 

What should you not do before a full body massage?

 

It’s not ideal to eat a large meal before a massage, as laying down for an extended period of time can be uncomfortable. 

 

Should I shave before a massage?

 

It's not necessary to shave prior to getting a massage. This is completely up to you and whatever makes you feel most comfortable.

 

What do you wear for a full body massage?

 

I would suggest wearing something comfortable and that is easy to put on and take off. Wearing loose fitting, comfy clothing will help to prolong that relaxed feeling after your massage.

 

Is it rude to talk during a massage?

 

As mentioned above, it is not rude to talk nor is it rude to lay in silence! Each to their own

 

Should I shower before a massage?

 

A shower before your massage is advisable. A warm shower can help to you start relaxing and also means your skin is clean and ready to benefit from the use of massage and essential oils.

 

Is it better to shower before or after a massage?

 

After a massage, you may wish to leave the oils on your skin to continue moisturising and nourishing. However, some people prefer to shower straight after which will do no harm at all.

 

How often should I get massage?

 

Regular massages can help with pain relief, improve flexibility and range of motion, and promote overall well-being. Generally, one massage a week is recommended, especially if you have a specific health condition or injury.
