Massages
Personalised Relaxation and Focus
Looking for massage in South Bristol? It’s hard to know what type of massage you may want, so why not just book a massage and let your massage therapist work it out?
Whether you’re seeking deep relaxation, targeted relief for problem areas, or a rejuvenating blend of both, your session will be tailored just for you.
If you book a massage appointment, you don’t need to know exactly what you want. At the beginning I’ll ask you a few questions to work out the massage focus, which areas you’d like massaged, the pressure and if we’re using essential oils.
Your massage can include the back, legs, feet, stomach, arms, hands, neck, head, and any combination based on your preferences. Your appointment can be purely relaxing, as in the case of an aromatherapy massage, or we can combine outcomes. A popular choice is working on problem areas with some relaxation included.
During the massage, I use a variety of techniques depending on your focus and how your body responds, but they may include: aromatherapy massage, Swedish massage, deep tissue, myofascial release, or trigger point therapy depending on the focus. At the beginning of your appointment we can also discuss if you would like to use essential oils. If you decide you would like this option, you smell the proposed blend before I make it for you.
Your Comfort
Let’s be honest. Meeting someone for the first time who is going to leave a room and wait for you to get undressed and get yourself on a couch can feel a bit weird if you’ve never done it before.
I completely understand different people have different levels of comfort, so while I may ask you to undress down to your underwear, some people will leave their bra on while others may leave trousers or shorts on.
Another common barrier is people are worried about a face cradle. I always set up my couch in a standard setting, but I will ask you at the start if you’re happy with a face cradle.
My couch is also a wider couch, so it fits a larger frame and I can also adjust if you don’t want to lie flat.
If you are large busted you may find lying face down a little uncomfortable, but underneath you will see and array of cushions, including a breast pillow. We don’t start the massage until you’re feeling comfortable.
