To help you feel at ease

Before the massage

You’ll stay comfortably in your underwear. I use professional draping throughout the massage so you’re always securely covered and feel completely safe, respected and at ease.

Yes — please provide three large towels and one small towel. These are used on the massage table and for comfortable, professional draping.

I use 100% pure, natural, high-grade almond oil and essential oils chosen for comfort, safety, and effectiveness.

A clear area of around 2m x 3m is ideal. Most living rooms or bedrooms are perfectly suitable.

Yes — hotel visits are absolutely fine. I bring the equipment, and the process is exactly the same as a home session.

Yes – I travel across West Bridgford, including Lady Bay, Edwalton and surrounding areas, bringing professional mobile massage directly to your home.

Seven days a week, 8am–9pm — including same-day appointments.

Often the same-day, depending on availability.

Each session is 75 or 90 minutes. I don’t charge extra if we run slightly over — we’re not governed by the clock, but by making sure the work you need is done properly.

My standard treatment is the 75-minute Signature Massage — this length gives enough time for a full, balanced session without feeling rushed. You’re welcome to have a shorter massage or skip certain areas if you prefer.

If you’d like a longer, more calming session, I offer a Deep Relaxation Upgrade, which extends the duration to 90 minutes and allows extra time to slow the pace and finish the session in a deeply relaxed state.

The Signature Massage is £65, or £80 with the Deep Relaxation Upgrade.

Payment is made after the session, either by bank transfer or cash.

During the massage

Yes — the pressure is fully adjusted to your preference, from relaxing and gentle through to strong, deep and focused.

While I don’t currently offer a specialist clinical/manual lymphatic drainage service, my slow, calming full-body massage style naturally supports many of the same benefits clients are often looking for — including relaxation, circulation, nervous system regulation and a lighter, less tense feeling in the body.

Clients often describe the treatment as deeply calming, restorative and grounding, with benefits that extend beyond just one area of the body.

Your comfort is my priority.

Every massage is completely tailored to you. Before we begin, we’ll talk about your preferences, and during the session I’ll regularly check in to make sure the pressure feels right. You’re always in control – if anything feels too strong (or not strong enough), we simply adjust.

Massage doesn’t need to be painful to be effective. Many clients with sensitive muscles prefer a gentler, slower approach – and still experience wonderful relief, deep relaxation, and lasting results.

The goal is for you to feel safe, comfortable, and leave feeling soothed and restored.

Yes — the treatment is always professional, respectful and guided by your consent. I have many 5⭐ reviews from Nottingham clients.

Yes — my massage is fully therapeutic, focused entirely on comfort, relaxation and wellbeing. I work with clear professional boundaries so you can feel completely at ease throughout your session. My service is dedicated solely to high-quality therapeutic care.

Yes, you’ll be comfortable. It’s normal for some people to feel a little self-conscious. Towels are used for draping, and the atmosphere is calm, supportive and non-judgemental.

It’s entirely up to you. Some clients prefer quiet; others chat a little. I follow your preference.

Yes — calming background music is available, or we can do the session in complete silence if you prefer.

Safety, qualifications & who I work with

Usually yes — massage can help with tension, stiffness, mobility and stress. I can discuss any health issues with you when we chat on the phone before the session to make sure everything’s good.

I’m qualified to Diploma Level 3 in Body Massage and fully insured. My training is recognised by mainstream UK massage organisations.

Yes — I regularly work with both men and women, as well as couples.

Yes – I do massage pregnant women, with appropriate adjustments for comfort and safety.

Many women find massage during pregnancy deeply comforting and relaxing, helping to ease back, hip and shoulder tension, reduce stress, and support better rest.

Massage is suitable for low-risk pregnancies only, and sessions are adapted using gentle techniques and supportive positioning.

I offer pregnancy massage up to around 36 weeks, provided there are no complications and you’re feeling well.

Yes — I can provide back-to-back sessions for couples, partners or friends.

Yes — I offer personalised massage gift vouchers, and they’re always warmly received. The recipient gets a tailored 75-minute home massage, and you can even add a personal message or request a special song to finish their playlist. I take care of sending the voucher and arranging their session at a time that suits them. I also offer couples or family massages during the same visit if you’d like to treat more than one person. Just send me a quick message and I’ll set everything up for you.

After the massage

Most people feel deeply relaxed, loose and calm — many report better sleep, reduced tension and improved mobility. Clients often mention many more benefits in their reviews.

Sometimes, especially if deep or focused work was done, you may feel moderate soreness the next day. This is normal and settles within 24–48 hours.

Understanding massage

Our bodies are designed for lots of regular, varied movement — walking, stretching, bending, carrying and changing position throughout the day.

Modern life often limits this. Long hours sitting, repetitive tasks, screens, driving and ongoing mental stress encourage the body to hold itself still and “brace” for support.

Over time, muscles stay subtly switched on, especially in the shoulders, back, hips and inner thighs, and tension becomes the norm rather than the exception.

Massage helps by gently reminding the body how to soften and release, restoring ease, movement and a deeper sense of relaxation.

Massage increases blood circulation, relaxes tight muscles, reduces nervous-system stress and improves mobility. It also enhances lymphatic flow, eases tension build-up and supports natural recovery — leaving you feeling looser, lighter and more balanced.

Massage helps treat sports-related aches and strains by reducing muscle tightness, improving circulation, and supporting recovery. This can ease discomfort and help restore normal movement after training or injury.

Regular massage also helps prevent injury by keeping muscles and joints supple, reducing imbalances, and lowering the risk of strain from repetitive activity.

For ongoing maintenance and performance, massage supports faster recovery, smoother movement, and more consistent training — helping your body cope better with physical demands over time.
