Frequently Asked Questions

  Calming Massage is my private massage practice, founded by me in June 2021 and based in my own flat. It is a dedicated, peaceful space where I offer personalised treatments designed to promote deep relaxation, reducing stress.

 I am the sole practitioner at Calming Massage. I am a fully qualified and insured professional male massage therapist, and all treatments are personally delivered by me. Calming Massage is a private, individual practice and there is no provision for the recruitment of additional therapists. 

  Calming Massage operates with one private massage room, which is used exclusively for one client at a time. For this reason, I am unable to accept bookings for couple massages or simultaneous treatments. All sessions are strictly one-to-one, allowing me to give my full attention to each client. 

  Calming Massage does not have a waiting room, as it is based within a private flat. For safety and privacy reasons, only the client receiving the treatment is permitted to enter the premises. Any accompanying person must wait outside the building during the session, in order to respect and protect the safety of residents living at the property. 

No, there is not.  However, prior to the first session only, you will be asked to complete a short consent form for safety and emergency purposes. This form explains that massage treatments are not a substitute for medical care or medication, and it requires a small amount of personal information, including the reason for your visit. 

  The duration of each treatment depends entirely on your personal choice. In the Treatments & Bookings section, you will find a brief description of each massage offered, including its duration and price. I am not strictly time-bound, and if a session happens to run slightly longer than the booked slot, no additional charge will be applied. 

 I am qualified to offer three types of massage treatments: Swedish Massage, Deep Tissue Massage, and Hot Stone Massage. Of these, only Swedish Massage is available with multiple session durations, while Deep Tissue and Hot Stone Massage are offered in fixed session lengths. 

 The most requested and popular treatment is the Finest Full Body Massage. This session lasts 1 hour and 30 minutes and belongs to the Swedish Massage category under Long Treatments. 

 Payment can be made by card, although cash is preferred. At present, card payments are temporarily unavailable due to a technical issue with the card machine. Alternatively, payment by bank transfer is always accepted and is a secure method of payment. 

 The term “extra service” can have different meanings. If it refers to extending the duration of a treatment, this may be possible depending on availability, but it must always be discussed and confirmed with me in advance. However, any request for sexual services or inappropriate behaviour, including so-called “happy endings,” is strictly not permitted. Calming Massage is a professional therapeutic practice, and I expect my work and my role as a massage therapist to be treated with full respect.
