I have never had a massage what should I expect?
We have a small room in the Ballard Building. When you arrive if the door sign says in session, please have a seat in the lobby near the front entrance and the therapist will come greet you when they are ready to begin the session. They will have you undress to your level of comfort and draping is always very modest, so no parts that are not being massaged are ever exposed. We are a very professional company that always operates at the highest standards in conformance with Washington State law and the National Therapeutic and Bodywork Association.
Is the massage table comfortable?
Yes, the table has an adjustable head rest for neck comfort. The table has an additional memory foam mattress topper, heating pad and very soft microfiber linens and fleece blankets.
What style of massage do you do?
Ginger’s massage is very eclectic, pulling from various techniques learned throughout her 17+ years of experience. The best way to describe her massage would be therapeutic wrapped in a relaxation framework. She tends toward the deeper side with regards to pressure but can adjust to most people’s preference. Her speed varies depending upon the clients tissue, pressure depth as well as the primary focus of the massage. Her work utilizes both finger and broader pressure with palms and arms. She also may incorporate some tools for more aggressive treatment work such as Gua Sha scrapers and cupping as needed.
