Arrive at your session on time, no one wants to be frazzled going into a massage session. Wear comfortable clothing with underwear, have some food (not over full) and be hydrated. Massage will be voided without underwear.
Bring medication lists, notes/medical clearances, or scan results. To make sure the service provided to you is safe for you and any conditions you have. We may need you to obtain a medical clearance letter from your GP, prior to receiving a massage. Sometimes it can be good to go to a session with an intention in mind, to help with your focus or the opposite and try to clear your mind whilst receiving your massage.
Post-massage you may feel energised, clarity, and light. It can be common to feel tired and even some post-massage soreness up to two days. If you have some soreness, apply a topical pain-relieving ointment like our Myo muscle balm. Use a heat/cold pack if needed, as directed by your therapist.
Take advantage of your massage. Avoid strenuous exercise, try a light walk, gentle stretches can be beneficial to further promote blood flow and flushing out metabolic waste. Have a nice magnesium salt bath or relaxing hot shower. Allow your body to rest and recover. Massage can be beneficial with sleep by reducing mental and physical discomfort, go to bed early.
Most importantly keep hydrated! We recommend having a couple glasses of extra water on top of your daily intake. Aiming for at least 2 Litres a day.
It’s easy to get caught up in life and appointments so book your next massage before you leave.
Remember it’s gratifying to nurture, support and restore your body!
