FAQs
How much does a massage cost? Please see 'Prices'
Where are you located? I am in Brackley, Northamptonshire. When you book, you will receive full directions and contact details.
What does a full-body massage consist of? A full body massage usually consists of back - shoulders and neck - buttocks - legs and feet – abdomen – chest – arms and hands – face and head. We will discuss before we begin if there are any areas you wish to leave out.
What happens when I arrive? We will spend a few minutes chatting about your previous experiences with massage and your expectations of the treatment. Some people want a relaxing massage and some an invigorating one. The type of strokes I use will depend on your requirements. I take a few medical details just to make sure that there are no reasons that you should not be massaged. I will leave you to get undressed and lie on the massage table, face down, covering yourself with a drape. When you are ready I will join you and making sure you are comfortable – start massaging your back using a blend of oil consisting of coconut oil, canola oil, jojoba oil and aloe vera oil with a palm kernel base.
Why is your massage different or better than someone else’s? I take a great deal of pride in my work, strive for excellence, and derive a great deal of satisfaction in seeing and aiding the continuing good health of my clients. You will never receive a hurried or impersonal massage from me. Just as each client is unique, so each massage is bespoke and customized for you.
Do I need to book ahead of time, or are you readily available? As far as bookings go, you're welcome to e-mail what time you'd like to meet. I have both day and evening appointments available. I should inform you, however, that I am quite busy and usually require booking a few days in advance. It never hurts to ask, though--I may be free right now.
Do you ever have discounts or special deals? Yes! Book and pay for four treatments and get the fifth one FREE!
How often should I have massage? While it is safe to have massage as often as you wish, most of my repeat clients tend to book one per month. This is a very healthy regime, one worthy of thinking through and budgeting for! Again, it’s difficult to believe that something that feels this wonderful is actually good for you--and it truly is. You are likely to feel, look, and act years younger!
What does “holistic” mean in regard to massage? “Holistic” means that rather treating “your back” or “your neck,” instead, I aim to treat you as a whole person and am concerned about all aspects of your health. Your emotions, your activities, your physical exercise, even your “quiet time” and recreation all play an important part in your overall health, and I am willing to work with you as much as you’d like to help you achieve a lifestyle that can accommodate all the various elements that help make up a complete and whole life.
