Is my home suitable?

______________________

​

Our therapists generally require a space of 2m x 3m or more, to comfortably work around the table.

Most homes can accommodate the space required for a massage table - a living room, kitchen or larger bedroom usually have enough space.

​

Preparing your space

______________________​

​

Please move any furniture prior to your therapists arrival.

​

We recommend completing any other necessary tasks, so you don't miss a minute of your blissful treatment.

​

Temperature

________________

​

During the winter months we recommend having your heating on slightly higher than usual. This will help you to stay cosy and warm during your massage. If you do tend to feel the cold more than most, you are welcome to have a spare blanket at hand for extra comfort!

 

​

​

What to wear

________________

​

We advise wearing something comfortable and easy to undress/dress from -lounge wear, a dressing robe, or loose gym clothes work well. Underwear such as briefs, boxers or knickers should be worn as matter of hygiene and policy.

​

We kindly request all clients present themself hygienically, showering on the day of the appointment wherever possible.

​

Hydration

________________

​

Hydration is very important following a massage so drink plenty of water and/or herbal tea. Good hydration will help aid in the recovery of tissues, especially following any deeper work. 

​​

Ambiance

________________

​

We supply relaxation music to play during treatments, but if you’d like to play your own music or prefer silence then that's no problem, just let your therapist know at the beginning of your session.

​

We also highly recommend putting your phone on silent if possible.

​

Parking and access

​

______________________

 

We may not be able to provide services to buildings that have multiple flights of stairs, steep steps, small rooms or lack of parking.

Parking is essential. Please ensure you have somewhere close by if you don't have a private drive or parking space. This is required for safe loading and unloading of equipment. If parking charges apply these must be reimbursed directly to the therapist at on their arrival.

​

Can you visit my hotel room

______________________

Yes we can. Although some hotel rooms are quite small and would not fit our massage tables in. We advise getting in touch with a photo of the room if you're not sure or putting us in touch with the hotel concierge to discuss options.

 

We also advise checking with the hotel that they are happy for us to provide services there - his can be a matter of their policies or insurance.

 

Please be aware that some locations are not suitable if there's not nearby parking or if there are steep narrow stairs, as with some old Cotswold character properties.

​

​

Who can have massage?

______________________

Massage is generally safe and suitable for all ages, genders and body types, although the safe weight-load for our tables ranges between 18-35 stone. Therefore, if you're within this weight category, please get in touch to check whether the therapist you're booking with has a table load weight safe for your use. Under 16s will need to have parental consent and a parent or guardian present during their treatment. If you're seeking treatment for a particular ailment or injury then we’d be happy to answer your questions via the Contact tab at the top of the page or give us a call.

​

​

Can I remove my underwear for the massage?

______________________

No. As part of our therapist safety measures and hygiene protocols you will need to keep your underwear on accept for bras which we recommend are removed for massage.

​

​

How will the session work for Pregnancy Massages and Facials?

______________________

 

How will I be positioned? 

Our pregnancy massages are delivered with you lying on your side, comfortably supported by bolsters or pillows. We'll work down one side of your body and then turn halfway to work down the other half.

 

What do I need to prepare?

We may ask to borrow two pillows for your treatment: one to go under your head and one to go between your knees. We'll cover these with towels so they are protected from oil. You're welcome to slip into a bathrobe over your pants so that it's easy to wrap up warm after your massage.

 

What about the Pregnancy Massage & Rejuvenating Holistic Facial? 

 

You'll have two options:

​

 - 60 minute Pregnancy Massage & Rejuvenating Holistic Facial -

 

The 60 minute treatment, will be delivered with you only lying on your back, supported by pillows in a semi-reclined/semi-seated position on the massage table. We'll ask to borrow some pillows for this and will cover it with one of our towels. Then you'll receive a full facial with massage to the neck, arms, head & hands (or legs and feet if that's your preference!) 

​

- 90 minute Pregnancy Massage & Rejuvenating Holistic Facial -

​

The 90 minute treatment, will be delivered first of all with you lying on your side (same as the standard pregnancy massage), turning onto your other side halfway. Then for the final 30 minutes, we'll position you in a semi-reclined/semi-seated position on the massage table to receive your facial. We'll ask to borrow some pillows to help keep you more upright, and will cover any borrowed pillows with one of our towels to avoid oil transfer.
