What to Expect from a Full Body Massage
A friendly guide to your first full body massage: preparing, communicating with your therapist and what happens afterwards.
Before you arrive
Try to arrive a few minutes early so you are not rushed. Avoid a heavy meal just beforehand, and if you have any health conditions or concerns, check with your doctor before booking any massage.
Talking to your therapist
Good communication makes the session yours. Mention any areas you would like more attention on, and any you would prefer to avoid. If the pressure feels too firm or too light at any point, just say so — a professional therapist will always adjust.
During the massage
You will be in a private room with soft lighting. Most people find that after a few minutes their breathing slows and their thoughts quieten. There is no need to talk unless you want to.
Afterwards
Take your time getting up. Drinking some water and having a quiet moment before you head out helps the calm last a little longer. At Nora, private showers are available if you want to freshen up.
