What to expect...
If you are a caregiver that has taken the time to look for this kind of service - thank you for reaching out. I'm here to help.
When you book an appointment online, I will call or email you before your first appointment. This gives us both a chance to ask questions and together make a plan for your mobile massage appointment.
​
The day of your treatment
You may consider this day or time special, quiet, relaxing and peaceful - it may help to enhance your day of relaxation if you plan ahead and book accordingly.
​
It may be beneficial to have a shower or bath just prior to your appointment.
​
Consider having a snack or drink 1/2 hour before appointment so your body is nourished and hydrated.
*If you have symptoms of illness (fever, chills, cough, runny nose, vomiting etc) we will need to cancel and reschedule your mobile massage.
​
I will arrive 10 minutes early to set up and say hello, answer questions etc.
Whether you've booked a 30, 60, or 90 minute massage - the 1st minute of your appointment is when my hands are on a patients body. Saying hello, petting your dog and taking my shoes off is not part of your treatment. I include 10 minutes before and after each treatment as a buffer.
​
If you have a cat please let me know ahead of time so I can take the appropriate allergy medication - cat dander allergies will render me no good to you if I am unmedicated.
​
During your treatment
I will be using heated fractioned coconut oil for your massage treatment.
I can provide your massage on your couch, bed/hospital bed, chair or outside on the grass if that's where you'd prefer.
​
I will use a variety of massage techniques to manipulate and relax the muscles.
​
If at any time you are uncomfortable, you may pause or stop the massage treatment.
​
If you'd prefer more or less pressure, it is your decision. We will communicate throughout the treatment to ensure you are as comfortable as possible.
​
My main goal is to provide you with comfort and relaxation.
After your treatment
If it's possible to have a nap, a bath or quiet time after treatment - you'll enjoy the post-massage bliss longer than if you have to rush to another appointment.
​
Staying hydrated is always ideal. Sip water or herbal tea for the remainder of your day.
​
If a friend or family member could help out and provide dinner or any kind of support later in the day - even better.
​
It's a beautiful thing to lean on the people that support you and ask for help when it's required.
