FAQ’s

What should I expect during my first massage?

Your therapist will discuss your preferences, needs, and any health concerns. You'll lie comfortably on a massage table, and only the area being worked on will be uncovered to ensure privacy.

What should I wear during the massage?

You can undress to your comfort level. Most clients wear underwear, and professional draping ensures privacy at all times. We will provide you with the option of disposable underwear.

Will the massage hurt?

Most massages are relaxing, but some techniques, like deep tissue or sports massage, may involve pressure that can feel intense. Always communicate with your therapist to adjust the pressure as needed.

Can massage help with chronic pain?

Yes, regular massages like deep tissue, sports massage, or therapeutic techniques can help alleviate chronic pain by targeting tension and improving circulation.

Can I talk during my massage?

It's entirely up to you! Some clients enjoy chatting, while others prefer quiet relaxation. Communicate your preference to your therapist.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Wow! What a beautiful salon! Matilda is so friendly and so welcoming I really enjoyed my experience! I had a body scrub done by holly and I honestly couldn’t recommend her enough! She was so friendly and made me feel so comfortable throughout the treatment and the body scrub was so relaxing and I felt and smelled so fresh after the treatment. I can’t wait for my next body scrub with Holly 🙂 Thank you Holly for being so lovely and welcoming

I booked a laser hair removal package, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. The team is so knowledgeable and made me feel comfortable throughout the process. Smooth skin, no irritation!

I’ve been coming here for the past year, and the difference in my skin is unbelievable. The anti-wrinkle treatments and facials are just what I needed for a refreshed, youthful look. Highly recommend!
