Your Treatment
1. What happens at my first appointment?
Your first appointment begins with a short consultation. We will discuss your main concerns, relevant health information, treatment preferences and the areas you would like to focus on.
This helps ensure that the treatment is appropriate, comfortable and tailored to you.
3. Can I choose the massage pressure?
Yes. Pressure is adjusted throughout the treatment according to your comfort and the technique being used. You can always ask for lighter or firmer pressure during the session.
5. Will the massage be painful?
Massage should not feel unbearably painful. Some therapeutic techniques may feel more intense when working with areas of muscular tension, but pressure is always adapted to your comfort and tolerance.
Please communicate during the treatment if anything feels uncomfortable.
7. Do you work with active people and athletes?
Yes. Sports Massage and Deep Tissue Massage can be adapted for active clients, whether you train regularly, participate in sport recreationally or experience physical demands through work or daily life.
Treatment may support recovery, muscular comfort and ease of movement.
2. Can massage be adapted for older clients?
Yes. Treatment is always adapted to the individual, taking account of comfort, mobility, preferences and relevant health information.
4. Can I book regular treatments?
Yes. If you would like ongoing support for muscular tension, physical fatigue, recovery or general wellbeing, regular appointments can be discussed and arranged around your needs.
6. What should I do after my massage?
Allow yourself some time to relax after your treatment and notice how your body feels. Gentle movement and your normal hydration routine are sensible. Following more focused work, you may prefer to avoid strenuous physical activity for the rest of the day.
Health, Comfort & Safety
1. Are there any circumstances where massage may not be suitable?
Massage may need to be postponed or adapted if you have a fever or contagious illness, new unexplained pain or swelling, open wounds or active skin irritation, a recent injury or surgery, or certain medical conditions.
If you are unsure whether massage is appropriate for you, please contact me before booking.
2. Do you treat medical conditions?
Massage is not a substitute for medical diagnosis or treatment.
Therapeutic Massage may support relaxation, muscular comfort, mobility and general wellbeing, but it does not diagnose, cure or guarantee treatment of medical conditions.
If you have a significant health concern, are recovering from surgery or are under medical care, please seek appropriate medical advice before booking where necessary.
3. I have swelling or diagnosed lymphoedema. Can I book Lymphatic Drainage Massage?
Please contact me before booking.
Medical lymphoedema may require specialist assessment and management, and this service is not intended to replace specialist medical care.
If you have new unexplained one-sided swelling, pain, warmth or a change in skin colour, please seek appropriate medical advice before considering massage.
4. Is my personal information kept confidential?
Yes. Your personal and treatment information is handled respectfully and confidentially.
For details of how your personal information is collected, stored and used, please see our Privacy Policy.
