Prepare by wearing a top that can comfortably provide access to the arm, and remove bracelets, rings, and watches if possible. Payments by e-transfer or cash. Includes taxes. What to expect: When you arrive you will be offered an herbal tea of the day and I will review what to expect, discuss your goals for the appointment, and give you the opportunity to ask questions and make an informed decision whether to continue onto the table for the session. Once on the table you will be offered a face pillow for your eyes (optional) and we will adjust the temperature, blankets, and pillows to your comfort. I will work an equal amount of time on each arm/hand. The session covered below the arm to allow movement of fluids to the lymph nodes found in the axilla (armpit). It is recommended to wear a top that can be comfortably rolled up to the shoulder. You can choose to remove a tight-fitting top if you are comfortable with it and will be given privacy and sheets to cover yourself for the appointment. There may be times the pressure causes tenderness, I will frequently check in with you to ensure the pressure is not too much. It is not recommended to "breath through" the pain, it is best if you are not guarding, tensing, or holding your breath. Please do tell me when it is uncomfortable, and I will adjust the pressure or modify the technique. You have the right to stop the appointment at any time. At the end of the session I will leave the room to wash my hands giving you time to slowly come back to sitting to get ready to go.
