🌿 New Client – What to Expect
​
Welcome to Blue Lotus Massage! I want your first visit to feel comfortable and
stress-free from the moment you arrive.
​
Here’s what you can expect:
​
-
Arrival: Please arrive 5–10 minutes early to complete a short intake form and discuss your goals for the session.
-
Consultation: We’ll talk about any areas of pain, tension, or special focus you’d like addressed. Every massage is customized to your needs that day.
-
The Session: You’ll relax on a comfortable massage table with fresh linens. I use professional draping techniques at all times to ensure your privacy and comfort.
-
Communication: I encourage you to let me know about pressure, comfort, or any adjustments needed during the session. This is your time to unwind and heal.
-
Aftercare: Many clients feel deeply relaxed, so plan time afterward to enjoy the benefits. Hydrating with water helps your body process released tension.
My goal is to create a safe, professional, and restorative experience every time you visit.
​
🌿 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Before Your Appointment
​
What should I wear? You’ll undress to your comfort level. Professional draping ensures your privacy at all times.
​
Do I need to bring anything? No, everything is provided. Just bring yourself and an open mind for relaxation.
​
Do you offer same-day appointments? Generally no, but you may ask. Advance booking is recommended.
​
Do you accept insurance? Currently, Blue Lotus Massage does not bill insurance directly. I can provide receipts for you to submit to your provider if massage is covered.
​
Can children or teens receive massage? Yes, with parental consent. A parent or guardian must be present during the session. Massage can be helpful for stress, posture, and sports recovery at any age.
​
*During Your Session
​
Will the massage be painful? Massage should never be painful. Even in deep tissue sessions, pressure is adjusted to your comfort level. I’ll check in with you throughout.
​
Will I talk during the massage? That’s up to you. Some clients prefer silence, while others enjoy light conversation. I’ll follow your lead.
​
Do you work with specific conditions (TMJ, migraines, posture issues)? Yes. I specialize in TMJ therapy, headache relief, and biomechanics-based massage to help with chronic pain and posture-related discomfort.
​
*After Your Session
​
Will I be sore after my massage? Some mild soreness is normal, especially after deeper work. It should feel like “good soreness.” Drinking water and resting helps ease recovery.
​
What should I do after my massage?
Drink water, rest, and allow your body to absorb the benefits. A warm bath with Epsom salts can also help.
How often should I get a massage? It depends on your needs. Some come weekly for chronic pain, others monthly for maintenance. Together, we’ll find what works best for you.
​
*Payments & Policies
​
How do I pay? I prefer cash. I also accept local checks, Venmo, Apple Pay, and credit/debit cards
(a 3% bank fee applies to cards).
​
Should I tip? Tips are appreciated but never expected.
​
What if I need to cancel or reschedule? Life happens! Please give at least 24 hours’ notice so I can offer your time to another client. Frequent Cancellations and No Shows will not be tolerated and subject to payment.

A 24 hour cancellation notice is greatly appreciated
