BODY. BOUNDARIES.
TRUST. SAFETY.
My name is Tim Smith.
I am licensed by the Virginia Board of Nursing and abide by the American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA) Code of Ethics.
I am not a doctor, a physical therapist, or chiropractor, and will not substitute as one.
My offer to you is assistance with feeling better through therapeutic touch.
All of this to say…
I am educated and experienced.
I will not engage in sexual acts.
I will make suggestions when applicable.
You can generate healing.
And Please…
Remember this is your session.
Each client is different- some relax in silence, while others want to talk. I am open to either.
Give me feedback— at any time— if you want me to make a change.
your questions for me
frequently asked questions
-
Anywhere you want to do the session is discussable.
If your location is 30 minutes or less from downtown Richmond.
My table is 6ft by 2.5ft, and I need space to move around it.
Easy access to parking.
Indoors and Private, limiting distractions.
Available bathroom.
-
60 or 90 minutes is hands-on time. Allow for 10-15 minutes before and after for setup/pack up/discussion.
I aim for every massage to be thorough to maximize the benefits for you.
I have chosen limitations on 60 minute massage.
60 Minutes: Dedicated to focusing on a particular problem area, the upper or lower half of the body.
90 Minutes: There is some flexibility. Full Body, Full Body with focus work or focus work only. 90 minutes gives me the time to palpate (examine with touch) for a detailed treatment as I work around the body.
-
No two sessions are the same.
I’ll blend techniques around your needs and preferences.
As we continue working together, I’ll fine-tune each treatment to help your body feel better.
I draw from Swedish, Sports Massage, Myofascial Release, stretching and muscle activation.
Each client’s pressure tolerance is subjective and can vary throughout the body. Some clients want to feel beat up and others want to be touched by an angel.
So open dialogue is important.
-
I will arrive at your location at the appointment time.
Allow 5-10 minutes for setup.
We will discuss what you would like out of the session.
I will step out of sight so you can undress to your comfort level and cover yourself on the massage table.
The clock to 60 or 90 minutes begins when I return.
Questions and comments are welcome throughout the session, or you can take a mental break to bliss out.
Afterwards, I will step away for you to get dressed.
We will recap.
Then I will pack up and receive payment.
If you wish to schedule again, we can book at this time.
-
I avoid it.
During each session consultation we will decide what is acceptable to work on. It is very important to me to not cross your boundaries.
Areas to consider:
Almost all clients are comfortable with these:
Neck, Shoulders, Back, Arms and Hands
Most clients are comfortable with these:
Legs, Feet, Scalp
Some clients are not comfortable with these:
Glutes (Hip/Buttox), Pecs (Chest), Face, Abdomen*
*Abdomen will only be incorporated upon request, or for specific reason.
I do not see or touch these:
Front genital, crack in the back. This is easier to avoid.
Breast tissue- I will never touch or expose. I may work above, below or to the side. If it is too close for comfort, tell me, so I can adjust.
-
Rule of thumb: If it is covered by your bathing suit, I don’t want to see it or touch it under any circumstance. Even if you don’t mind.
All genitals are off limits, period.
You choose what you want to wear or not wear.
If you choose to be partially nude or fully nude, you will be draped (covered) by the linens.
I may work over the drape at times. Generally, I will undrape the segment of the body that I am working.
If you choose to be clothed, you do not need to be under the linens. I can work over/around your clothing, using jostling, compression, stretching etc. But yes, it is a different experience/outcome from direct skin contact.
-
