Absolutely! You can buy vouchers for a specific massage (£55 for 1hr or £75 for an hour and a half) or in increments of £10.
I have lovely printed cards which I can post out to you  (or them) first class, or I can email you a PDF to print out yourself  The information on how they can then contact me to book the massage is all on the voucher. 

All vouchers are valid for 1 year from date of purchase. 

I work from My Chiropractor in Monmouth. For more information on how to find it, please go to my contacts page. However, if you cannot come to the studio but would like me to come to you, please call and I will try to arrange a home visit.

The first time we meet we will chat for about 10 minutes at the beginning of the session. I may take some notes at this point for future reference. This chat is important as it allows:

• You to get to know me and start to trust me
• You to express what you need and what you want
• Me to get to know you and what your experience of living in your body is like (how you use it, where/if it hurts and any medical issues).
• Us to agree what the treatment session will be like today.

I will then leave the room for you to get undressed as much as you are comfortable with and get onto the massage table, covering yourself with a drape. When I come back we will do approximately 45minutes of massage. At the end of the massage I will leave you to get dressed whilst I get you a glass of water. Lastly we will have a quick follow up chat about ideas you might find useful to bring more comfort in your daily life.

If you re-book we will not re-do the full consultation at each visit. We will simply check in at the beginning of each one to see how you are doing, what worked last time and what you need today.

Sometimes it just isn’t possible to make it to a massage you have booked. I understand this, but also hope you understand that any cancellation with less than 24hrs notice will likely be charged at the full rate.

During our chat at the beginning of the massage we will establish which areas we will be working on. If this is your legs or upper back I may suggest removing clothing so that I can massage the areas with oil. If we agree that you will remove clothing I will always leave the room while you are dressing or un-dressing. In addition there is a sheet which I will use and move carefully to cover you during the treatment. However, if you are uncomfortable about removing clothing, we can complete a massage fully clothed. Please just ensure you are wearing loose, comfy clothes (for example leggings or tracksuit and t-shirt) and we can work through that.

Please call if you have already booked a massage and you have a cold/flu, have taken strong painkillers or have any medical condition which means you aren’t sure whether you can receive massage. We can then talk through a few options for what is best for you.

Please just call me and we can discuss the best options for you. Most people can receive massage, whatever issues they have – it may just mean we have to do particularly gentle massage or avoid specific areas.

I offer some discounted massages to those experiencing difficult times. If you feel that this is you please do give me a call and we can discuss a price.
