SENSORY SESSION PRE-CARE INSTRUCTIONS
HOW TO PREP
Avoid caffeine and recreational drugs
Wear comfy clothing and socks (or bring some along)
Bring any crystals or spiritual supports you desire
Come with clean skin and product-free hair if possible (face cleansing wipes are supplied if needed)
Be aware that your upper back, neck, arms, face, scalp and hair will be massaged with oils during your session
WHAT TO EXPECT
Your booked time includes 10 minutes of consultation time where we will go over any intentions you may have for the session as well as go over all the tools and scents that will be used during the session. You will then be asked to remove any clothing on your upper body as well as any hair elastics, hair pins and jewelry on your wrists and neck and get comfy on the treatment bed while I wait patiently outside the room. Once you are comfortably situated on the treatment bed, I will re-enter the room and begin the session by pressing play on my curated sensory playlist. Depending on the session you booked, the playlist will be either 30 or 60 minutes in length.
Once our music is on, every session begins with sound cleansing and a Reiki body scan. A hands off or ’hover hands’ technique is used for the lower body and a hands on technique is used for the upper back, arms, neck, head and face to assess and target areas that require energetic release. Once your body scan is complete we will move on to the massage portion that includes a customized combination of hair brushing and massage techniques with my hands and massage tools to aid the body, mind and spirit in healing. The session begins with you laying face down and finishes with you laying face up to apply a counter stretch and maintain balance throughout.
Once your session is complete you have 15 minutes of private reflection time and are encouraged to lay on the treatment bed and fill out a reflection page to make note of your experience and feelings. Reflection pages can be taken home or kept on file in studio to reflect back on as you move through your healing journey or energetic release. Once you are finished your reflection time, I will knock on the door, you can re-dress and invite me back into the room and we will go over your session together and checkout!
