What to Expect

During therapy

A confidential case history will be requested at the beginning of each session (general health background, current health and any contraindications which may make massage unsuitable). Each treatment is tailored to the individual needs.

A massage table or a special mat on the floor (depending on the type of treatment) is used for the massage. Towels and sheets are used to cover the body and only the area which is being focused on will be uncovered at a time.

Natural oils are used for the Therapeutic Oil Massage. Thai Yoga Massage is performed without using oil.

Relaxing music will be played during the treatment as it can help you to relax and sink into the massage. Please feel free to ask for silence if you prefer. The same goes for talking, keeping silence or talking is important as long as you are comfortable and relaxed.

After therapy

Generally, keep yourself warm and remain in a quiet state for as long as possible enjoying the feeling of released tension and the flow of new energy through your body.

Later, after massage, your muscles may also feel as if they have had a work-out and may feel tired. This is completely normal and should go away over the next couple of days leaving you with a lighter and relaxed body. This usually happens if the massage treatment was either your first in your life or after a long break in massage treatments. These effects should lessen after subsequent treatments.

It is advisable to drink plenty of water after a treatment as it can help the body to flush out toxins. Also is advisable to have a light meal and not to drink alcoholic drinks.
