About Sacred Hour Massage and Skin Care

Massage is a soothing, relaxing experience. We ask that you show up, for example, for a 1:45pm appointment, at 1:30pm. Many times guests show up at 1:45, which is when your treatment begins. Showing up early will allow us to help you better, and your massage will be a blissful experience.

Breathe:
Breathing helps to facilitate relaxation. People often stop breathing when they feel anxious or a sensitive area is massaged. If you realize this is happening, remind yourself to breath.

Relax:
Try not to tighten up during the massage. Let your massage therapist know if this is happening. They may need to adjust the massage technique being used. They may also be able to help you relax the affected area.

If you find your thoughts are racing during the massage, one way to be more "body-centered" and to quiet the mind is to follow the hands of the massage therapist and focus on how the touch feels.

Hydration:
Drink plenty of water after a massage.

Cool Down Session:
Allow for some open, quiet time after your massage session if possible. You will enjoy a little you time to integrate or absorb the results of the massage session.
