Will
a massage hurt?
A massage will refresh and relax you as long as the right pressure is used. You and your therapist need to communicate on this issue regarding the right pressures and position of strokes. For some people who need deep tissue massage to help remove scar tissue or relieve localized tightness, some initial discomfort might be present.
Will
there be any complications after a massage?
Properly given, a massage invigorates. Massage therapy can relieve stress and anxiety, improve blood supply to your tissues, and improve energy and alertness.
Can
I bring in my own relaxation music?
By all means, you may bring your own music to your massage session. I have my own library of relaxing music for any taste, from soft instrumental to the sounds of nature.
Is
a full body massage sexual
Professionalism and proper draping will avoid sexual connotations. A massage, especially with proper music, lighting and optional aromatic scents is very pleasing to the senses, but a professionally trained and principled therapist will never cross sexual boundaries.
What
if I fall asleep during the massage?
Wonderful! That means you were relaxed enough to let the massage have its full affects. You will be gently awakened by your therapist who will make sure you are sufficiently alert to carry out your normal activities including getting off the table safely!
How
can I protect my privacy during a massage?
You are always appropriately draped, with only that part of the body being massaged being uncovered. Never are the breast, buttocks, or genital areas uncovered.
Can
I determine speed and pressure of the massage?
Yes, you can even change it from session to session. The key is to communicate clearly with your therapist what your needs are. It is your massage session so your therapist will respond to your desires.
