What to expect
Treatments are not rushed, and everything discussed in your consultation will be in confidence
Consultation
Your first treatment includes a confidential consultation to gather relevant medical and lifestyle information. This helps Christina understand underlying causes of tension and imbalance in your body. Allow 15 minutes extra for the consultation in your schedule at your first treatment.
Massage Waxes and Oils
Christina uses grapeseed oil, which has a lower allergen possibility than nut oils and contains minerals and vitamins for the skin. This is used alongside massage wax made from olive oil, coconut oil, beeswax, vitamin E and lavender essential oil. For facial massage, Christina uses Neal’s Yard aromatic massage oil, an organic, natural product containing fragrant essential oils. Bliss!
Payment Methods
Christina accepts payment by cash or bank transfer. Payment is to be made in full on the day of your appointment. Cheques and credit / debit cards are not accepted.
Underwear
Underpants will be worn by all clients during the appointment, together with appropriate draping of towels to respect modesty and ensure professional boundaries between client and therapist.
Terms and Conditions / Cancellation Policy
Should you need to cancel or reschedule a massage appointment, please contact Christina more than 24 hours in advance so the session can go to another client. Any cancellation with less than 24 hours notice regrettably will be charged in full, unless Christina is able to allocate the appointment to another client. “No shows” will result in the full treatment cost being charged to you.
Please contact Christina directly to book an appointment or if you have any further questions about what to expect.
