First visit

What to expect

A first visit takes a little longer than the session, because the first few minutes are for talking.

You fill in a short intake on the booking page before you come. I read it, ask about pressure and anything to leave alone, and the session starts when you are ready. The intake is where health questions belong, not in the contact form.

  • Arrive ten minutes early

  • Bring a water bottle if you like

  • Tell me about any scent or oil allergy when you book

    Come ten minutes early. There is parking at the door, and the entrance has no steps.

    A short talk about pressure, then the session. You are covered by a sheet or towel the whole time, and you can stop whenever you like.

    Step 5: Afterward

    A glass of water, a minute to sit up slowly, and your next evening booked before you go if you want it.

Good to know

Before you come

  • What to wear

    Undress to your comfort. You are covered by a sheet or towel the whole time.

  • Pressure

    I ask before you start and check again partway through. Lighter or firmer is always your call.

  • Right to stop

    You can pause, change position or end the session at any time, for any reason.

  • Ask your doctor first

    If you are pregnant, or have had recent surgery or an injury, ask your doctor or midwife before you book.
