FAQs:
🟡 Q: Wow this is new to me, what is this like?
🟢 A: Gentle Scratch Massage is a Specialty Service and a rare type of Body Work. It is a unique experience for everyone! Think of it as a gentle, soothing, grown-up version of the comforting scratches you may have loved as a kid - rhythmic, slow and deeply calming. It’s not a deep tissue massage; instead, it's more about nervous system regulation and emotional reset through gentle touch, repetitive scratch techniques.
🟡 Q: Who provides the massage, a man or woman?
🟢 A: I’m the sole practitioner, a woman, and I offer all sessions myself in a calm, respectful, and professional environment.
🟡 Q: What do I wear?
🟢 A: Nails-to-skin contact offers the most relaxing experience to the parasympathetic nervous system. Most women wear shorts and a sleeveless tank top or sports bra (I also offer disposable, backless bralettes), and men often wear shorts and a thin sleeveless tank top or go shirtless. For chair massage, you will remain clothed from the waist down. For table massage, I require at least undies on. A sheet will cover your waist/hip area the whole time, and that area will not be massaged for your comfort and privacy.
🟡 Q: Is this a type of sensual massage?
🟢 A: No, this is not a sensual massage. This is a professional, therapeutic bodywork service focused on nervous system health and well-being. I maintain clear boundaries and a respectful environment at all times.
🟡 Q: Do you offer different types of massage, such as Deep Tissue Massage?
🟢 A: No, Gentle Scratch Massage Therapy is the only type of Body Work offered, as it is a unique, specialty service.
🟡 Q: Do you use your real nails?
🟢 A: I use nail tips placed over latex-free gloves, which feel relatively the same as natural nails. This method allows for cleaning between appointments, as they are switched out and sterilized. My priority is your well-being, and I want you to have the best possible therapy, feeling safe and comfortable, with peace of mind knowing that you are fully protected and cared for to the highest standards of cleanliness.
