First Time Getting a Massage? Here’s What It’s Like with Me 🌿💆‍♀️

Hey 👋—if you’re thinking about booking your first massage with me (or your first massage ever!), I just want to say: welcome. I know it can feel a little vulnerable to try something new with your body, especially when you’re tired, in pain, or simply burned out. But you’re in good hands here. Truly. 🤍

I’ve written this for you—to walk you through exactly what to expect and how to feel ready. My goal? That you walk out feeling lighter, looser, and more at home in your body than you’ve felt in a long time.

Before You Arrive 🕊️

You don’t need to prep anything fancy. Just come as you are. But here are a few things that can help your session feel even better:

💧 Drink water. Hydration helps your muscles respond to the work more easily and supports your body after.

🥗 Eat a nourishing meal. Nothing too heavy or greasy—just something with good protein to support your tissues.

🧣 Wear cozy clothes. After a massage, your body will be in rest mode. Give yourself something soft to go home in.

✨ Arriving 5–10 minutes early helps us ease into the session without feeling rushed.

When You Get Here 🪷

We’ll sit down together for a few minutes and talk. Nothing stuffy or clinical—just me asking how your body’s been feeling and what you’re needing most right now.

Are you carrying your stress in your neck and shoulders like most of us? Have you been waking up achy? Is your mind constantly “on”? I want to know what’s really going on so I can tailor everything to you.

Then I’ll step out so you can undress—to your comfort level.I always encourage folks to remove underwear and jewelry if they’re comfortable—it just gives me better access to your hips, glutes, and lower back (where tension loves to hide). But if you’d rather leave things on, that’s totally okay. You’ll always be fully covered with sheets, and I’ll only uncover the area I’m working on. 🛏️💫

What It Feels Like on the Table 🌊

Picture this:

You’re lying under warm sheets. Soft music is playing. My hands start working slowly through your shoulders and back, and you feel a breath rise from somewhere you didn’t even know was tight.

As I move through the session, I might use:

🌀 Cupping – to release deep muscle tension and move stagnation

🌿 Gua Sha – for lymphatic flow and fascia release

🔴 Red light therapy – to support tissue healing and calm inflammation

🔥 Hot stones – to melt tension and invite the body to soften even more

Everything I use is included—there’s never an upcharge for tools. We decide together what your body is asking for that day. 💛

This is your time to just be. You don’t have to talk. You can nap. You can cry. You can simply breathe.

After Your Massage 🌙

You might feel a little dreamy or extra tender—that’s totally normal. Massage doesn’t just help your body—it calms your nervous system too. It lets you finally exhale.

Here’s how to care for yourself afterward:

💦 Hydrate – Lots of water helps flush out what your body just released.

🍲 Eat something grounding – A good meal with protein supports muscle repair and energy.

🛁 Rest if you can – Even a slow walk, warm bath, or quiet moment to yourself helps your body integrate the work.

You might feel a little sore the next day, kind of like after a good stretch or workout. That’s just your body adjusting to new space and flow. Trust it. 🌼

How Often Should You Come? 🗓️

That’s totally up to your body and your life.

🔄 Dealing with chronic pain or stress? Weekly or biweekly sessions help reset your system.

🌕 Looking for maintenance and balance? Monthly massages are a beautiful way to stay connected and prevent burnout.

🧭 Or come when your soul says “I need this.” That’s just as valid.

There’s no one-size-fits-all schedule here. I’m happy to help you figure out what rhythm feels right.
