Massage Questions
What do I wear while getting a massage?
It all comes down to what you are comfortable with. Most people will either leave their underwear on while the rest prefer to be in the buff. It's all up to you and your comfort level.
How long does it take to get a massage?
We offer 30, 45, 60 and 90 minute massages. The average person usually gets a 60 minute massage. The more work you need, the longer it will take. For a typical relaxation (full body) massage, it takes 60 minutes.
Will I be covered up during my massage?
Yes. The only part of your body that isn't covered up is the specific area that is being massaged.
What is the difference between a relaxation and a therapeutic massage?
The easiest way to describe the difference is how much pressure is being applied. During a relaxation massage the pressure is superficial which helps to increase circulation and lymphatic flow. This smooth and calming type of massage in most cases is done to the whole body (back, legs, feet, arms, shoulders, neck, face, head and sometimes the stomach to help digestive disorders). With a relaxation massage you will feel very relaxed afterwards.
When it comes to a therapeutic massage, the pressure becomes deeper and can be more intense. Also, more techniques are used to help release tight muscles. Keep in mind that when working deeper into the muscles you may find some soreness the next day.
So if you are in need of getting rid of some general aches and pains, a therapeutic massage may be what you are looking for. Otherwise if you just want to relieve some stress, check out our relaxation massage.
Laser Hair Removal Questions
How does laser hair removal work?
It emits controlled pulses of energy (radio frequency and light) to penetrate the skin down into the hair follicle. The energy heats the hair right down to the root, destroying it without any damage to the skin.
Is the treatment painful?
Each pulse lasts less than a second and produces a slight prickling feeling to the skin.
How do I know if I'm a good candidate?
If you have unwanted hair, chances are that you are a good candidate. Only elos technology can remove ALL colours of hair (even white and grey) on ALL skin colours.
How many treatments will I require?
Our technology destroys hairs in active (anagen) growing stage, so repeated treatments will be needed to treat hairs not previously active. You will need 6 treatments for optimum results.
Is it safe? What about side effects?
Elos technology is proven to be safe and effective. Most people experience no side effects at all. Few people experience a short term reddening that may last a few hours to a day.
