Your First Therapy Treatment (New Clients)

• When you book your first treatment, you will receive an email and automated text to confirm the appointment, along with details of where to come.
• Payment is taken after your treatment (all major cards accepted), or you can request a payment link/credit online if you prefer to pay in advance/save for your treatment.
• You will be sent a reminder the day before your appointment.
• When you arrive, we will carry out a consultation together to ensure you get the very best out of your massage. I will outline what to expect depending on the massage therapy you have booked, and make sure you are comfortable.
• There is a separate bathroom where you will change whilst I prepare the therapy room.
• Please let me know in advance if you have sensitivity to certain smells or fabrics, and if you prefer quiet (no music).

Subsequent Treatments (Existing Clients)

For subsequent treatments, we will have a brief consultation to discuss any contra-actions following your previous massage therapy, and then tailor your next therapies accordingly. Your details will be checked and updated, if necessary, each year.

Please check your junk folder if communication is not received (look for reply@vcita). Please do not reply to the automated text from VGMT as I will not receive your message. Contact me using the email and phone number listed on this site.

After Care

After your massage, your body will naturally continue to respond to the treatment.

• Drink plenty of water - to aid with expelling toxins and to stay hydrated.
• Stay relaxed - continue to reduce stress levels but don't be too still; keep gently moving and stretching muscles.
• Avoid alcohol, caffeine and smoking - help your body to release toxins; don't add to them.
• Book another massage - regular massage works best; keep looking after your body and mind.

You may experience the following (particularly if you are new to massage therapy), which typically last no longer than 24 hours as your body continues to respond to your treatment:

• Slight headache/nausea.
• More frequent visits to the toilet.
• Vivid dreams.
• Emotional release.
