Frequently Asked Questions

Your first visit starts with a brief intake conversation, usually 5–10 minutes, where we’ll talk about your health history, any areas of tension or pain, and what you’re hoping to get out of the session. From there, I’ll step out of the room while you undress to your comfort level and get settled on the table under the sheet/blanket. During the massage, feel free to speak up at any time about pressure, temperature, or areas you’d like me to focus on or avoid. Afterward, I’ll usually offer a few notes or stretches you can do at home. Aim to arrive around 10–15 minutes before your session start time to allow time for the intake.

Undressing to your comfort level is completely your choice — most clients will undress down to their underwear, but this is definitely not required. You’ll always be properly draped with a sheet and blanket, and only the area being worked on is uncovered at any time. If you do choose to remain clothed for the session, the ideal outfit is shorts, and a bra with minimal back straps (if applicable). I can also adapt the session to work over light, comfortable clothing (avoid anything with zippers, thick seams, or heavy fabric).

I require at least 24 hours’ notice if you need to cancel or reschedule. As an independent practitioner, each appointment is time set aside exclusively for you, and cancellations with less than 24 hours’ notice can make it difficult to fill last-minute slots in my schedule. You can notify me about your reschedule by calling, texting, or rescheduling your appointment online through your online booking account.

Cancellations with less than 24 hours’ notice are subject to a 50% fee, and no-shows will be charged the full cost of the service booked. I know that sometimes emergencies can happen — if that occurs, just reach out as soon as you can, and I’ll always do my best to work with you.

Deep tissue work targets the deeper layers of muscle, using firm, focused pressure to release chronic tension and knots. Myofascial release is a slower, more sustained technique that works on the fascia — the connective tissue that surrounds your muscles — to improve mobility and address pain that isn’t always where it seems to originate. Many clients benefit from a blend of both, and I’ll adjust the balance based on what your body needs that day.

Deep tissue work is more intense than a relaxation massage by design, but it should never be unbearable. Think “good discomfort” — like a productive stretch — not sharp or wincing pain. I check in throughout the session, and you should always feel free to ask me to adjust pressure up or down. In my work I focus on warming up the muscles before any deeper work, and giving the nervous system time to acclimate so that the session can be as productive as possible.

Yes, for clients who have already booked an appointment with me before at my office space, house calls are available for an additional fee. Please reach out to me via text or email for more information.

Sí, hablo español, y he trabajado con muchos clientes hispanohablantes. Si se siente más cómodo/a haciendo la sesión en español en lugar de inglés, no dude en decírmelo.
