Massage guide
Your first massage enquiry: how to describe what you want
A few ordinary words about the area and pressure you prefer can make a first massage enquiry easier. Here is what to include before choosing a service.
Plain words work well for a first massage enquiry. You might know which part of your body you want to focus on, but be less sure about the treatment name. Start with that preference, then use the menu to find the entry you want to ask about. At YUNARA, Vicky offers private appointments for women in Browns Bay and Glenfield.
Name the area in everyday words
“The tops of my shoulders” says more than “upper body”. “My calves and lower legs” is more specific than “legs”. Describe the place you have in mind as you would in a conversation, especially if two menu descriptions seem relevant.
YUNARA’s body menu separates back, legs, arms and abdomen, and décolleté care, with back-and-leg combinations also available. You can look through those entries while you write. If your preferred area seems to span more than one service, ask which appointment to choose before selecting a time.
Describe pressure by what you enjoy
Gentle, medium or firm are useful starting words. If you have had massage before, say what you liked about the pressure and what you would change next time. You can also say that you are unsure and would like to discuss the style before booking.
Signature uses hands-on massage; Intensive combines RF with firmer, targeted hands-on care. Your enquiry adds how you would like the appointment to feel. The Intensive menu guide is useful if you want to read those descriptions more closely.
Include anything you want to avoid
Mention a part you would prefer not to have included or a technique you would like to ask about. A short, direct sentence is enough. Asking “Can we discuss this area before I book?” gives Vicky a specific question to answer without your having to choose a service first.
During the appointment, keep using clear language. “Lighter, please”, “Please leave that area out” or “I would like to pause” are simple ways to communicate your preference as it changes.
Make the first message easy to answer
Add your preferred studio and the full treatment name if you have one in mind. For example: “I am looking at Signature Back Treatment at Browns Bay. I usually prefer medium pressure and mainly want to focus on my upper back and shoulders. Is this the entry I should book?”
You can send your question to Vicky, then return to the menu to choose the studio and available appointment that fit your plans.
