The Essential Massage therapist will use oil, lotion or cream, which reduces drag on the skin, while performing various massage strokes. Essential Massage uses only hypoallergenic and organic products, unless otherwise requested by you. If you have a known sensitivity to even hypoallergenic products, then please be sure to tell your Essential Massage therapist prior to the session so we can accommodate you.

Do not expect to experience any form of Aromatherapy at Essential Massage. We refrain from using scented candles, incense, essential oils and diffused scents. With respect to the strength of Aromatherapy, we leave that art and science to those practitioners who are qualified in that vocation. If Aromatherapy is something that you are interested in, of course we can refer you to a qualified practitioner. Too many aromas at once are not therapeutic and can be overwhelming and even unhealthy. Raindrops of pure water are amazing as only natural weather can produce...and Rainbows are gorgeous in the sky too. Being creative and experimenting with aromas can be fun. Yet, at Essential Massage, we are confident in the massage therapy we offer and we want you to be as confident in knowing what you'll experience will be tried and true as it has been for centuries, Therapeutic Swedish and Shiatsu Essential Massage.

Do not expect to experience any form of product sales at Essential Massage. While this is considered by many sales oriented professionals in the Spa Industry, as a "no no". Essential Massage is about providing therapeutic massage, pure and simple. No gimmicks or miracle cures. .. Expect to receive a great massage!
