I conduct most of my massages at my residence. I have a separate room in my house that is dedicated to my massage studio.
My house is located in the NW Houston area on the crossing of N. Eldridge Road and FM1960 in a very quiet, safe, and established neighborhood.
You are welcome to park your vehicle either in my driveway or on the street.
There will not be anyone in the house but you and me.
The bathroom and the shower will be available for all the clients to use before, during, and after the session(s).
Please contact me if you would like me to travel to your home as well. I typically travel within a 25-mile radius of my residence and my travel fee is $20.
My massage studio is your safe space.
I promote an environment of trust, confidentiality, and privacy. To comply with HIPAA, I do not ask nor do I collect any medical information from my clients. However, when scheduling a massage session with me, you must let me know if you have general or local contraindications against massage therapy.
Before your massage, you will be asked to remove your clothes to the level of your comfort. Draping will be provided for every session as required by Texas law, TDLR. It is very important that you feel safe and comfortable during our session.
Any video, photo, audio recordings, etc., will not be allowed during the massage session due to privacy and HIPAA regulations unless for marketing purposes, which will be specified and agreed upon by both parties in writing before the session. You will be asked to turn off or silence your communication device(s) to eliminate distractions during our session.
Conversations during the massage will be reduced to a minimum to promote the therapeutic effects of massage and your relaxation.
After your massage, you will be offered a bottle of water to rehydrate.
Please let me know if you need any assistance getting on/off the massage table. It is normal to feel slightly dizzy and/or light-headed after a massage session. Therefore, please, do not "jump" off the table after our session is over; move slowly.
Payments are taken after each session via cash, Zelle, Venmo, and CahApp.
Tips are not required and are not expected. Please schedule another session, instead.
All sales are final, and refunds are not offered.
Generally speaking, massage is defined as a mechanical manipulation of soft tissues. Although massage was recognized and proven by many leading health professionals as beneficial for overall human health. It is not, however, a substitute for doctors' visits. Therefore, massage cannot be used instead of or as a sole treatment for serious medical conditions.
During our massage sessions, I am using classic Swedish massage techniques such as effleurage, petrissage, tapotement, skin-rolling, skin-spreading, friction, vibration, deep tissue, trigger point therapy, muscle energy, and stretching.
During the deep tissue massage, a slight discomfort, hyperemia (increased blood flow) are considered normal.
During stretching, you may experience slight discomfort at the end of your normal range of motion (ROM), which is known as end-feel. It is normal.
Please be aware that severe bruising may occur during and after Gua Sha and cupping treatment sessions.
I am using the classic: subjective, objective, assessment, and planning (SOAP). Subjective analysis is to discuss any discomfort, pain, and other issues the customer may experience. "Objective" is what I am observing upon palpation. "Assessment" is for changes and improvements post-treatment. Finally, "planning" is where we discuss my suggestions to maintain the results and any further proposed treatments. I am keeping SOAP notes from each session and documenting our progress for any future sessions.
My massage techniques are non-invasive and cannot cause any health concerns or harm.
I do not work with pregnant women.
I do not work with minors (under 18 years of age).
I do not work with clients who have serious acute or chronic medical conditions unless they provide clearance from their treating medical providers.
The hot stones are 130- 145 degrees Fahrenheit. I also use crystals and natural minerals such as agate, shungite, celestine, amazonite, obsidian, larimar, citrine, jasper, etc. They are believed to help balance energy in the body and promote good health.
I use only professional-grade glass cups for cupping therapy. Glass is a non-porous material compared to plastics, which makes it more hygienic and easier to clean and sanitize. Glass cups are sterilized before and after each use.
Please be aware that mild bruising will likely occur during and after Cupping therapy sessions.
If you request a breast massage, you will be required to sign a written consent before our massage session.
Please disclose your prescription medication during our consultation. It is important because massage can be counterindicated for certain medical conditions and when taking certain medications.
Please do not consume alcohol and/or take any recreational drugs before our massage session, because it can alter your pain tolerance and negatively impact your cardiovascular system.
Please do not take any blood-thinning medications before your massage because they can cause severe bruising.
Please do not take any pain management and/or muscle relaxers because they can alter your pain tolerance.
I am not a medical doctor, and therefore, I cannot give any advice or prescribe any medications to you except by recommending natural and over-the-counter supplements, stretches, and physical exercises.
All the equipment, massage table, tools, stones, etc., are sanitized after every session. The sheets are laundered and sanitized after every session. The room itself is cleaned every day with disinfectants, and the air is ionized to eradicate any possible airborne pollutants. During the session, I will wear a mask, if requested, when you are prone (face down). I will always wear a mask when you are supine (face up).
I am fully vaccinated against SARS COVID-19 virus and its variants.
If you are sick or are experiencing any signs of sickness, we must reschedule the sessions until you are asymptomatic.
Your hygiene is important for your safety.
During our massage session, any potentially pathogenic microorganisms may be carried with the lubricant to different parts of the body. Therefore, it is recommended to shower with hot water and soap before your massage session. As a precaution, I always use hand sanitizer every time before I massage your feet, your face, and your scalp.
"Dead skin" particles may be dislodged and "rolled" from the upper levels of the epidermis during the massage; it is considered normal and is not an indication of poor hygiene.
I will refuse a massage for safety reasons when/if there is a presence of foul body odor, uncovered open skin lesions, edema, and/or a presence of any bodily fluids or secretions on the surface of the skin before our massage session.
I use only professional-grade, hypoallergenic, and scent-free mineral massage oil.
If you request treatment with essential oils and/or other scented products, please be advised regarding the potential risks to your respiratory system and health.
During aroma therapy, I use natural high-potency essential oils and essential oil blends, which may cause various allergic reactions. Therefore, if you would like to have aroma therapy, you will be asked to sign an acknowledgment form.
Please let me know if you are running late. If you are late for more than 15 minutes without prior notice, your treatment session will be canceled or rescheduled.
I understand that emergencies happen. If it is possible, please give me at least a 24-hour notice if you are unable to make it to your appointment or if you change your mind about our session. It is absolutely fine to change your mind, but please let me know in advance.
Although not intended, it is not uncommon to feel sexual arousal during a massage and/or experience erection(s), which are all normal body reactions to parasympathetic nervous system stimulation and increased blood flow.
However, any deliberate and unwelcome sexual advances will result in the immediate termination of the massage session.
