I don't like oils, lotions, grease or creams. Can I be massaged without them?

You may be able to have a limited range of movements applied without oils and lotions or creams.

In this case a fine talcum powder can be used. The sensations will be different since the medium is different, and the techniques used can be adapted so that excessive skin drag can be reduced.

If you have a favourite medium you like having used for massage, please bring it along with you!

One thing to bear in mind is that, if you have body hair, whilst I attempt to avoid dragging your skin, you may possibly develop folliculitis ( an irritation of the hair follicals (growth roots) as a result of having hairy areas worked on without a massage medium ). I will discuss this with you during consultation.

Hot stone massage relies on having oil as a medium,  through which the heat is effectively transferred to your body from the stones.  It also helps prevent soreness from friction used in certain movements with the stones. It may not be possible unless there is an effective alternative to lotions available, and may not be a good treatment for you.
