Type of Massage
The type of massage I do is primarily about relaxation and reduction of stress
in order to let the client's body heal itself. I have taken techniques from several different massage disciplines and incorporated them into a soothing and free flowing massage that lets my client forget about the work day world for a moment and leaves them feeling rejuvenated.
To accentuate the spa-like experience all treatments in my studio begin with a relaxing herbal foot soak.
Although my work is very sensual, it is not sexual in any fashion. Please do not
schedule an appointment if you are looking for something other than a professional massage.
The primary disciplines I generally incorporate are Swedish massage and gymnastics
including deep tissue techniques, Hawaiian Lomi Lomi, Ayurvedic massage, broad plane myofascial techniques, and sports massage. Since each client is unique I use a different fusion of these techniques for each massage.
Your Comfort
Room Ambiance
The massage table is heated and I have plenty of blankets, so adjusting the
table temperature to your preference is not a problem. I generally burn a
few beeswax candles, keep the lighting dim, and play soft music.
The room has air conditioning, so even if its hot outside your session
should be comfortable.
Music
To make your massage experience more enjoyable I have selected music which I enjoy. If you have your own music that you find relaxing and would like during your massage, please feel free to bring it.
Draping and privacy
In addition to keeping you warm and comfortable, I generally drape my clients with a sheet and blanket or towel to preserve modesty and only expose the portion of the body that is being worked on at that time. Likewise, when doing abdominal work on clients with breasts I typically use an additional drape. You are welcome to ask for other draping options if it will increase your comfort level.
As noted in the guidelines, the optimal way to receive a massage is fully unclothed. I will leave the room to allow you to undress and cover yourself with the sheet and blanket before returning to the room to start your massage.
