Seated session
A 30-minute massage in a sturdy chair with arms, with light to medium pressure across the shoulders, neck, upper back and arms. Nothing to undress, and nothing to climb onto.
Pearline sets the chair to the height that suits you and puts a cushion where you want it. If you use a wheelchair and would rather stay in it, tell her when you book.
Pearline helps you into the chair, adjusts the height and puts a cushion where you want it.
Pressure, any sore place to leave alone, and whether you like to chat or sit quietly.
Slow, warm work over the shoulders, neck, upper back and arms, checking in as she goes.
A minute to sit still, a glass of water, and a hand when you stand if you would like one.
Light to medium, and always yours to change. Say lighter or firmer whenever you like.
You stay in your own clothes. A soft top without stiff buttons or a high collar is easiest.
With a heart condition, blood thinners, a recent fall or surgery, ask your doctor before you book.
A family member or friend can sit beside you or wait in the front room.
