What to expect from your first treatment: On arrival, you will be able to talk to Emily about your needs, and why you have chosen to book a treatment. You may have specific physical discomfort, or you may be experiencing stress. Whatever your reasons, you will have an opportunity to speak personally with Emily before the treatment. You will then be left to undress to your underwear in private, get onto the couch and cover yourself with a large towel. Emily will then commence the treatment, keeping your whole body covered in the towel, for warmth and discretion, and only uncovering the area being treated, for example, the back and shoulders. Treatments last between 30 minutes, one hour, one and a half hours, or two hours maximum.  The length of treatment time is discussed beforehand. Some clients find themselves drifting off into sleep, others like to talk or just maintain awareness.  However you respond is entirely up to you, as long as you feel comfortable. After the treatment, Emily will leave you to relax for a few minutes, before you get up and dressed.  Emily will then come back to discuss the treatment with you. During the following 24 - 48 hours you may experience a deep sense of relaxation and wellbeing.  Some clients also feel very thirsty, and it is a very good idea to drink water, as the lymphatic system has been detoxified, and the body needs to flush out the toxins. Some people may experience heightened emotions.  This is because the treatment often shifts deep seated emotional tension, which then needs expression. The body can hold onto issues and feelings, which often we are not concious of in our minds. The treatment Emily gives is very powerful in this regard, and many clients "move on" in their lives, emotionally. For those clients whose need is to relax, the treatment will create a deeper sleep rhytmn as the body starts to claim its right to rest!
