FAQs
What is a Lomi-Lomi Massage?
Without giving too much away (as you really need to experience the Lomi-Lomi massage to truly know what its all about!), Lomi-Lomi is a sacred, healing & restorative massage, using wave like stroke techniques to mimic the waves of the ocean. Unlike your traditional Swedish massage, Lomi-Lomi uses mostly forearm techniques & movements which bring both your upper & lower body into union.
What is Reiki Healing?
Reiki is a very subtle & calming energy healing treatment. The client remains fully clothed while the practitioner channels in the Reiki energy and provides healing through the palms of their hand directly into the clients chakra points. You will feel slight tingles, heat & the movement of energy & emotion during a treatment. Subtle touch may be used by the practitioner for a deeper connection to the clients energy channels. Reiki heals from the aura to the internal energy system. Aiming to shift your nervous system from sympathetic to para-sympathetic.
Do you accept male clients?
I will accept male clients via referral ONLY. As I am a mobile massage therapist & invite you into my home, I have a duty of care for myself & my safe space. Unfortunately, I have had experiences & received inappropriate messages from men which have led me to no longer accept new male clients. If you are already a client of mine and you would like to refer a friend or family member who is male, I am more than happy to accept & welcome them in for treatment. Any issues or questions about this, please get in touch.
Why the name, Skin On Skin Therapy?
Nothing funky going on here! Skin On Skin connection can be intimate without ANY sexual meaning. Skin to Skin touch promotes the feeling of calm, connection & love. Something which we are all desperate for receiving more of. The phrase ‘skin on skin’ comes from the connection between a mother & her newborn. It is a gentle hug for your emotional & energetic body & a perfect remedy to soothe & calm your nervous system.
Do you do ‘extras’?
ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!! I am an energetic & emotional healer. There is nothing more to it. If you approach me in any way with inappropriate messages or requests, you will be named, shamed & reported. Proceed with caution. I am not afraid to call out the creeps!!
How frequently can I book in for Reiki or Massage?
As Reiki & the particular massage that I provide are completely relaxing & calming, I will always advise you to listen to your body. If you want to come to me frequently as you feel your body needs that care, then you are welcome to. If you want a monthly reconnection sesh, that is absolutely fine as well! It truly is up to you & when you feel called to treat yourself.
For any Reiki treatment based around addiction or physical symptoms, I would recommend a more regular treatment for the first few weeks, to maintain consistency & adjustment for the energetic body. However, if you are just booking in to relax for 60-90mins, then you can come as much or as little as you like!
