Your First Home Session: What to Expect

Your First Orpington Home Massage: What to Expect & How to Prepare

Curious about booking your first home massage in Orpington? Here’s a simple guide so you know exactly what happens, how to prepare and how to get the best results from your session.

Before We Arrive

  • Clear a little floor space: A yoga-mat sized area is usually enough for a Thai mat or table.
  • Hydrate: Drink some water beforehand; it helps tissues respond well to bodywork.
  • Clothing: For traditional Thai, wear light, stretchy clothes. For oil work, we’ll provide towels and draping.
  • Goals: Think about what you want — looser hips, easier neck, less lower-back tension — and tell your therapist.

During the Massage

Expect steady, mindful pressure and guided stretches. We’ll check in on pressure levels and adapt as we go. If you prefer a focus (e.g., shoulders and neck), we’ll spend extra time there while still balancing the whole body.

After Your Session

  • Move gently: Take a short walk around the house to enjoy the new range of motion.
  • Water & rest: Hydrate and ease back into your day; many clients feel both relaxed and clear-headed.
  • Noticing changes: Pay attention to posture, breath and how your shoulders sit — small shifts add up.

Whether you choose Thai, deep tissue, reflexology, or a blend, your at-home visit keeps things simple and comfortable. No travel, no rush — just a tailored treatment where you feel most relaxed.
