At your first appointment for a Relaxing Swedish Massage we will ask you to complete a confidential client information form. We would ask you to complete this form so that we can get a better understanding of your lifestyle and background. Please be assured that any information you provide will only be used for the benefit of your attendance at this salon and will not be disclosed to any other person or organisation outside of this salon.
Our therapist will discuss the form with you in order to gain a better understanding of your health and lifestyle and what you would like to achieve from the massage, as well as the areas of concern you would like her to concentrate on.
Our therapist will then leave you to change out of your main clothing and a towel will be provided for privacy.
Once our therapist has returned she will begin the hands on treatment and talk you through what she is doing, how you are feeling and if the pressure could be firmer or lighter.
Once the massage has ended your therapist will leave you to dress and ask you to remain lying for a few moments so that you won’t be dizzy when rising from the table.
You may feel tenderness or slight soreness through the area massaged in the first 24 to 48 hours after the massage, particularly if this is your first massage. Doing some gentle stretches will help reduce any soreness.
Depending on your individual needs, we may recommend monthly or bi-monthly visits.
