Mobile massage FAQ 
...and all the things you feel awkward about asking

Mobile massage therapy means that I come to you and massage you in a quiet room in your house. I’ll bring my massage table, oil and linen. For new clients, I’ll ask you to complete a medical history form while I get set up, if you haven’t done it online when you book. We’ll have a chat about what you’d like to work on, any injuries or issues you have and discuss what will happen in your treatment. I’ll then leave the room so you can undress, make yourself comfortable on the table and cover yourself with provided linen.

No, you don’t need to provide anything apart from the space for me to set up my table. I can work anywhere, however if you have little ones, I strongly recommend organising another adult to keep them entertained while you are having your treatment. I am child friendly, but remember, this time is YOURS! Take it and enjoy it! The room can be anything you want it to be. You can set it up like a day spa with some music, candles and essential oils or just in your lounge room – it’s up to you!

Only if you want to be! As I offer an oil-based massage, I’ll need you to undress to a degree depending on what area I’m working on. For most people, down to undies is enough. I’ll leave the room so you can make yourself comfortable on the table in private where you can cover yourself with the linen provided. After that, you will be fully covered except for the area I’m massaging.

No! Although I’m happy to chat if you want to. I’ll usually chat for the first five minutes to check that you’re comfortable and the pressure is as you like it, then I’ll take my cues from you. You might like to play some music if you don’t want to talk and feel uncomfortable with silence. If you’re having a remedial massage, I’ll check in with you from time to time to gauge pressure and comfort. I am here for you, so feel free to be however you are most comfortable. I have no expectation for you to chat or do anything.

Please reschedule your massage if you’re feeling unwell so that any illness is not spread. This is especially important with Covid-19. If you are experiencing any symptoms at all, please cancel and we can reschedule after you have been tested and have the all clear – this keeps us all healthy! Please also contact me ASAP if you test Covid-19 positive, or find out you have been in contact with someone who has tested positive in the two weeks after your treatment so I can take all necessary precautions.

That’s ok, just let me know. I won’t be offended – in fact I can’t encourage this enough! Your massage is for you and I want to give you the best experience possible. I’m pretty intuitive, but if it’s the first time I’ve seen you I don’t know your body yet so don’t be shy to speak up. There’s nothing worse than lying there in discomfort feeling like you can’t tell me what you need.

Yes, I only work with women, so please don’t book a double appointment to include your husband/partner/son.

Oncology massage is often recommended for cancer patients but it’s absolutely essential that you check with your treating physician as to whether massage is appropriate for you before booking. I do not specialise in Oncology Massage and would recommend seeing someone who does. If you would still like to book in with me, I’ll need written confirmation from your physician giving you the ok to receive massage before I treat you.

Yes, I am registered with all major health care providers so you will be able to make a claim, providing remedial massage is covered in your policy. Most health care providers will only rebate for remedial massage.

I don't, only because the special cushions that allow you to lie safely and comfortably on your belly are just too bulky for me to carry along with a massage table and linen.
