WHAT TO EXPECT FROM A FIRST CLASS MOBILE MASSAGE AGENCY IN LONDON
WHAT IS MOBILE MASSAGE ALL ABOUT?
Mobile massage brings traditional massage therapy to new levels, owing to the fact that it involves travelling to meet the client, instead of the client coming to the massage therapist’s workplace. It is also called travelling massage.
People are becoming increasingly aware that they have to prioritise their health for healthy living, but many people, especially those within the work age or labour range, simply do not have the time and luxury (even energy sometimes) to go after this basic need.
Following research on massage therapy and approval even on medical grounds, people have become aware of the immense benefits it can offer. But as usual, work constraint becomes a barrier in getting these services for oneself.
This is where the mobile massage service comes in. When professionals bring the massage therapy right to your doorstep, and you don’t have to go in search of them, book an appointment and wait, it’s easier to just relax and finally enjoy that ‘me time’ you really deserve.
Mobile massage is massage on the go carried out with portable equipments, at your preferred time and at the comfort of your home or wherever you please.
HOW TO PREPARE FOR A MOBILE MASSAGE AND WHAT TO EXPECT
In preparation for your massage, it is advised that you take a warm bath. It helps in muscle relaxation, and after the massage, muscle recovery from all the strokes.
You also only need to prepare yourself and the space where the massage bed will be, and of course, the room where the massage will take place. Having that soothing atmosphere ready for your massage session will definitely heighten the experience. To prepare the space isn’t much of a big deal anyways; just the right sounds, the right temperature and the right lighting is enough to make it lovely. If you have trouble setting this up, your massage therapist can help you with this when they arrive.
Usually, they will also bring along the massage bed, the oils needed for the massage and other equipment, including scented candles as a bonus.
Upon arrival, the massage therapist will start to prepare or set up the space for your massage session. After they are done transforming the space, they would leave the room for you to undress and get comfortable. Do note that within the lines of professional ethics, clients are to
remain clad in at least their underwear, before they can be massaged by a masseuse.
The massage therapist would normally introduce a light conversation during the massage, just to keep you comfortable and create that friendly atmosphere. However, if you are not a person who likes to chitchat, you can inform your therapist ahead of time so they’ll let you be for the duration of the massage.
After the session, the masseuse would leave the room so that you can get dressed comfortably. When you are done, they’d come back to pack up their equipment and leave.
MASSAGE SERVICES WE OFFER
Massage therapy, once administered expertly, is of immense benefits to the recipient and the body in general. It has a great effect on the mood of the recipient, demolishing the effects of sadness, crankiness, mood swings, grumpiness, depression, etc and replacing it with a better mood. It does this by stimulating the ‘happy’ hormones in the body such as serotonin, and aiding the release of endorphins in the body that help lift the mood of the recipient.
It is also good for pain relief therapy. People who suffer from chronic pain or pain due to illness, accidents, or those recovering from surgery can through massage therapy, gradually gain relief
from pain.
It is also great for those who have suffered a stroke or have some form of paralysis. It is a great muscle stimulant and aids in muscle recovery.
It also helps those with insomnia to sleep better, and be able to develop and maintain better sleeping patterns.
It helps with anxiety, improves blood flow and general psychological health. These are just but a few of its benefits to the body.
Here at First Class Massage, we offer massage services as is suited to each client’s need. We offer Swedish massage, deep tissue massage, and also other types of massage therapy.
TWO MAIN MASSAGE TECHNIQUES
Effleurage
Petrissage

means ‘to touch lightly’ or ‘to skim’
It’s the first technique to be applied and the last one, too.
It’s a long gliding stroke that follows the contours of the body or face.
It can be light or deep, but always lighter to start off with to warm the area.
Effleurage prepares the muscles for deeper massage and soothes them after deeper massage.
