FAQs

This is my first massage, what should I expect?

I'm so happy for you! When you arrive, we'll chat briefly about your goals (relaxation, pain relief etc.). Then I'll step out and leave you to get undressed. It's important that I can access your whole back so please remove your bra. You may leave your underwear on or remove it. Either way you'll be covered by sheets and a blanket, I'll uncover whatever area I'm working on. Usually that means first your back and arms, then each leg. then you'll turn over, during which time, I'll create a sort of tent/barrier with the blanket. I'll then proceed to uncover and cover back up each arm, leg and foot. You'll be listening to some relaxing spa sounds and it's up to you if you want to fall asleep or chat. The massage won't hurt, and it won't tickle, it should feel like a perfect soothing motion during which your muscles gradually relax.

How do I find the studio?

Botanique is located right inside of the Kinnelon Sport and Fitness Club. To the left of the front desk there's a seating area. Take a seat and I'll come out to collect you at your appointment time. I display a sign stating whether there's a massage in progress or not.

I need to cancel last minute for a genuine reason and don't want to pay the fee, what should I do?

At your earliest convenience please call or text me at 2017837460. I absolutely understand that life happens and will likely waive the fee. 

Can I talk during my massage?

This is your time; you are in charge of your session. If you want to chat with me that's fine. In my experience you could access a much deeper level of rejuvenation if you chose a quiet session. you can also choose music on or off, maybe you want to listen to the Ozzy Osbourne or Taylor Swift... that's the beauty of the boutique experience vs chain spa, I'll always accommodate where I can.

What if I'm pregnant or have a medical condition?

Congratulations! I'm certified in prenatal massage, so just book the duration and let me know. Make sure to be out of your first trimester at the time of service. Upon booking you'll be directed to complete a health form. you can note anything medical on there. Also feel free to reach out prior to booking with specific questions. I'm available via email and text/call
