You should feel nicely relaxed and de-stressed. Often people say they feel revitalised and uplifted.
You may feel tired or have some soreness. You may need to visit the toilet more frequently after your treatment. You may also develop mild spots, cold-like symptoms and rashes. These are due to now-released toxins circulating in your body until they are eliminated, usually over a day or two. These are perfectly normal as it’s your body healing itself. With more frequent treatments these symptoms should reduce.
Some people also experience a heightened emotional state. This is a common reaction and shows your treatment is being effective. Again, they should last only a day or two. If you follow the advice below then it should not be troublesome for you.
Yes. You should avoid exercise, sun-beds or saunas. While in a relaxed state your blood pressure will be lower. This could lead to you passing out if you ask a lot of your body such as going into hot temperatures.
You should avoid stimulants such as alcohol, caffeine and fizzy drinks as these can dehydrate your body. Do drink plenty of water or herbal teas for the rest of the day to help flush out the body toxins which will have been released during your treatment.
Avoid heavy meals for at least 2 hours after treatment.
Depending on the technique used, you may or may not need to undress. If you are having an Indian head massage this is carried out over light clothing. For a full body massage, most people undress to their underwear. You will have privacy to undress, and you will be covered with towels at all times except the area being worked on.
Male clients: please note that underwear MUST be worn during treatment sessions.
Note: This is a strictly non-sensual therapeutic professional practice. Inappropriate suggestions or conduct will not be tolerated.
