Your First Visit with Kusala |
|
At Kusala Bodyworks we believe in the value of intentional touch in our lives, for our communities and for our culture as a whole. Giving you a positive experience that that helps balance your active lifestyle is our first priority. To enjoy a successful first visit, we encourage you to learn more the Kusala Loft Experience prior to your arrival.
Your Arrival
Upon your arrival at Salon Lofts, one of Kusala’s massage therapists will meet you in the front waiting area. From there we’ll spend a few moments getting to know you, and we'll also ask you to fill out a Health History Form. This form allows you to share your current state of health and well-being and therefore helps your therapist understand your goals and needs with your massage.
Your Loft Experience
Your massage therapist will then lead you to a quiet, Zen-like private loft where a comfortable massage table, or mat for your Thai Yoga Massage experience, awaits. Your massage table or mat are freshly made with clean, soft sheets and a welcoming blanket. Your experience is topped off with light, ambient music playing — if you have a musical preference, please bring it along and we’ll be happy to accommodate.
There’s plenty of space to secure your belongings and a small comfy chair for your use as well. Your Kusala professional will leave for a few moments while you undress to your comfort level. While some of our customers enjoy the comfort of completely disrobing, others prefer to remain partially clothed throughout their experience. You’ll remain draped throughout your massage, and your massage therapist will only uncover the body part they are touching, so feel free to make yourself comfortable and enjoy your time as you see fit. After a few moments alone, your therapist will return with a light knock prior to entering your space to begin your massage.
Your Massage is Your Massage
Our first-time customers often comment that they’ve experienced bodywork in the past and would welcome the experience more often but, for whatever reason, their previous practitioner created too much pain, lacked an intentional touch, applied too little pressure, or were otherwise distracted throughout their appointment.
Since your massage is your massage, we encourage you to communicate with your therapist on your specific goals and needs with each appointment. Your therapist can be as specific or general, as soft or deep, as quiet or talkative as you’d like. You’re welcome to direct the progress of your therapeutic massage at any time throughout the experience. Open communication, a responsive skill level, and intentional touch are the hallmarks of Kusala’s massage therapists — that’s how we help you feel your best.
The Rest of Your Day
After your massage, you’re encouraged to take your time rising and dressing. Your Kusala massage therapist will be waiting outside your loft and after a brief overview of your experience, and will handle your rescheduling and payment choices.
We welcome and accommodate all walks of life, all body types, and – most importantly – all temperaments and personality types. This inclusiveness comes from the experience of knowing our customers as well as we know ourselves.
Enjoy your visit with Kusala.
