FAQ'S & Reviews

Frequently asked questions:

Q. What'll happen at my first massage?

A. We'll ask you to fill out a health history form first. If necessary, we'll direct you to the restroom first. (It's common to realize you need to use the restroom once your laying on your stomach.) Then, We'll then give you privacy to make yourself comfortable in the treatment room. If you have questions, please don't hesitate to ask them. Once your comfortable on the treatment table, I will come in the room and began the massage.

Q. Do I have to take my clothes off?

A. Mostly, yes, but it depends. You are able to remove clothing only as far as you feel comfortable. If you only want to undress to your underwear, that's fine. However, if you need shoulders and back work working around a sports bra is tricky. Know that, I will leave the room while you're undressing and you will get under the blankets to cover yourself before I come back in. Only the part I am working will be exposed at a time. *Also, if choosing an energy-Reiki session only, pleas e keep all your clothing on. 

Q.  What if I fall asleep and drool or snore?

A. It's normal to fall asleep during a massage. You might be feeling stressed and sleep-deprived, so falling asleep is normal once you're in a relaxed state. There's zero judgment from us if you snore. To me, it's a compliment for someone to be so relaxed on my table.

Q.  Is it okay to ask for more or less pressure?

A. Yes! Be mindful that massage doesn't have to cause you pain to be effective. Some massage techniques are pretty gentle and some are firmer and depending on the muscle being worked. Do speak up and ask your therapist if you'd like more or less pressure during your session. We won't be offended! 

Q. What happens if I'm ticklish?

A. Let your massage therapist know before your session. They can use firm, slow pressure or, if you're extremely sensitive, they can avoid your tickle spots.

Q. How can I be sure a massage clinic is reputable?

A. Do your research by checking out their website or calling them to find out what services they offer. A reputable clinic will offer various styles of massage from only State licensed or Nationally certified therapists. This license or certificate should be posted in the clinic within eyesight, per NY state guidelines. Ask to see it, if it's not.

Throughout the massage, she displayed exceptional skill and knowledge, addressing all the tension and knots in my muscles with precision.
Laurie’s techniques were both soothing and therapeutic, leaving me feeling rejuvenated and refreshed. She seemed to have a natural intuition, knowing exactly which areas needed extra attention. The ambiance of the room was peaceful, enhancing the overall experience.

"Laurie gives an incredible massage as well as energy work! I felt lighter and taller after my session with her. She is very kind and welcoming which made me feel safe and comfortable." -LV

"I just had the most beautiful healing massage with Laurie. She some how knew exactly where my body was storing old pains and hurts and was able to release them. It is now the next day and my body feels loose and relaxed and I'm now back to making gentle easy movements instead of limping from pain. Thank you Laurie so much can't wait for the next one!!!" - SF
