If you\u2019re feeling uncomfortable or in pain, if you\u2019re feeling tense or tired, if you want to relax or simply take some time for yourself, a massage is always a good choice.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

    <\/path><\/svg><\/span>What should I expect during my first massage session?<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    You will be asked more detailed questions about your health to determine which areas you would like us to focus on, or whether there is any specific condition that needs to be taken into account. It is important to list any health issues and medications so that the treatment can be tailored to your specific needs without causing any harm. It is also important to mention any allergies you may have, so that the oil or cream used during your session can be adjusted accordingly.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

    \n\n

    <\/path><\/svg><\/span>Do I need to be completely undressed for the massage?<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    You should only take off as much clothing as you feel comfortable with, so that you feel at ease. You may keep your underwear on if you wish, as the massage can be performed over your clothes. The massage therapist will give you privacy and leave the room whilst you undress and settle onto the massage table. During the massage, the therapist will use a sheet or towel to cover the parts of your body that are not being massaged, so that you can relax and feel at ease throughout the treatment.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

    <\/path><\/svg><\/span>Can I talk during the massage?<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Of course, if you wish to talk, the therapist will join in the conversation with you. The important thing to remember is that the treatment is all about relaxing and enjoying the experience. Many therapists discourage conversation in the hope that you will relax and let your mind wander freely, so that you can enter a state of massage bliss. In many cases, people may feel more at ease once they start talking, and as the massage progresses, they slip into a quiet state of relaxation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The important point here is that there are times when you need to speak up. If the therapist does something that makes you feel uncomfortable, you should let them know straight away. Also, let them know if you\u2019re too hot or too cold, if the room is too bright, or if the pressure needs adjusting (lighter or firmer). If something isn\u2019t working for you \u2013 just speak up calmly!<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

    <\/path><\/svg><\/span>What skincare products are used during the massage?<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    At the Zhen Shen massage studio, we use entirely natural cosmetics \u2013 various types of oils, such as cocoa, coconut, karit\u00e9, grape seed, almond and many more, as well as high-quality essential oils, which are also used for aromatherapy. All products are selected with care for you and your health, as well as for the therapist\u2019s health. The oils and scents can be specially chosen to suit your preferences and needs at that particular moment.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

    <\/path><\/svg><\/span>Is a massage painful?<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    In principle, a massage should not be painful. In fact, if you feel pain during a massage, this can lead to muscle tension, which makes it harder to achieve the relaxing effect. If the pressure is too strong for you, feel free to discuss this with your therapist. Some techniques may cause soreness in the days following the massage, similar to muscle soreness after an intense workout, but generally speaking, you shouldn\u2019t experience any pain during or after the massage.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

    \n\n

    <\/path><\/svg><\/span>How will I feel after the massage?<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    The answer to this question varies greatly from person to person. Most people feel relaxed and calm. Some experience a significant reduction in pain, if they were in pain before the treatment. Many feel slightly sluggish for a short while and then notice an increase in energy and productivity, which can last for days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    After a more vigorous massage, you may sometimes feel a little sore the next day \u2013 much like after a good workout at the gym. A hot shower or a soak in the bath can help relieve this soreness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    After the massage, you should increase your water intake slightly. Just one or two glasses more than usual is usually enough. This helps to keep your body well hydrated and healthy.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

    <\/path><\/svg><\/span>How often should I go for a massage?<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    To be honest, it\u2019s hard to say. For those who use massage as a preventative measure or to relieve everyday stress, one massage a month is fine. Weekly sessions may be advisable if you\u2019re having a massage to relieve injuries or chronic pain that\u2019s affecting your daily life. Many people include massage treatment at least twice a month for optimal therapeutic effect. You and your therapist will be able to discuss this in more detail after your first session.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

    \n\n

    <\/path><\/svg><\/span>When should I not go for a massage?<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Generally speaking, there are a few circumstances in which it is not advisable to book an appointment. Naturally, do not book an appointment if you are feeling unwell, have a fever, a cold or a contagious skin condition. The first trimester of pregnancy is generally considered a time when massage should be avoided, as are active chemotherapy or other intensive medical treatments. If you have a serious medical condition and are unsure whether a massage would be safe for you, the therapist will advise you to speak to your GP to obtain their approval first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/path><\/svg><\/span>What are the payment options for the massage?<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    At the Zhen Shen massage studio, you can pay for your massage:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • in cash<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • with a gift voucher<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • by debit or credit card \u2013 MASTERCARD or VISA<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
