What to Expect During Your First Massage at Massage Eden
If you’re thinking about getting a massage for the first time, you’re not alone — many people feel unsure or even nervous before their first session. At Massage Eden in Auckland and Rotorua, we’re here to make your experience relaxing, comfortable, and beneficial from start to finish. Here’s everything you need to know before your first massage appointment.
Why Get a Massage?
Massage therapy isn’t just about relaxation. It helps with:
-
Reducing muscle tension
-
Relieving stress and anxiety
-
Improving circulation
-
Supporting better sleep
-
Easing chronic pain or stiffness
Whether you’re dealing with stress from work or tight muscles from the gym, we tailor each session to your needs.
Before You Arrive
To get the most out of your massage:
-
Arrive 10 minutes early to fill out a quick health form.
-
Drink water before and after your session to stay hydrated.
-
Avoid heavy meals at least an hour before your appointment.
-
Wear comfortable clothing that’s easy to change out of.
You don’t need to bring anything—just yourself and a willingness to relax.
What Happens During the Session
Step 1: Consultation
Your therapist will talk to you about your needs, any areas of discomfort, and what you hope to get from the massage. Don’t worry—there are no wrong answers.
Step 2: Privacy & Comfort
We’ll give you privacy to undress to your level of comfort. You’ll lie on a warm massage table and be covered with a clean sheet or towel at all times—only the area being massaged is uncovered.
Step 3: The Massage
Depending on what type of massage you choose—Swedish, deep tissue, sports, or relaxation—your therapist will use specific techniques to relieve tension and promote healing. If anything feels too intense or too light, just let us know. Your comfort is our priority.
Step 4: Post-Massage Tips
After the session, you’ll have a moment to relax and slowly get up. We recommend:
-
Drinking water
-
Avoiding strenuous activity for a few hours
-
Taking note of how your body feels
