Before the massage
When planning your massage appointment, I recommend that you plan as little as possible that day. If you are in a hurry, it takes much longer to relax and be receptive to the massage.
During the massage
Laat je gedachten dwalen.
After the massage
After the session you will be given some water and you can dress calmly. Try to take it easy for the rest of the day to receive the full benefit of the massage. As you get massages regularly, you will notice that you are more relaxed after your massage session.
Try to drink plenty of water throughout the day. Drinking water also helps prevent a headache after a massage.
Make sure that you do not eat anything or light for at least an hour before the massage, so that your body does not have to process food during the massage.
I always recommend closing your eyes and enjoy the relaxation. State if you are too cold or warm, if you experience pain or if you want the massage to be adjusted in any way.
Massage is meant to make you feel better, so please tell me During the massage you can tell me how I can improve your experience.
Everyone is different and prefers different pressures and styles at different times, firm one minute and soft the next. Let me know and I'll adjust the pressure.
Because of the proven health benefits and the release of stress as a result of a massage, I recommend a relaxation massage at least once every 4 weeks.
Do you have chronic pain? Then a combination of therapeutic and relaxation massage can be the perfect solution! A massage is all about you and your needs, it is up to the masseur to experiment with it through different massage techniques.
If you have chronic pain, more frequent massages may be needed. The health benefits of loosening the muscles and relieving tension on the nerves are well known, and for people with chronic pain it is a life saver.
You may feel a little dizzy or have a headache after a massage. These are natural reactions that you don't have to worry about. Stay well hydrated before and after your massage to reduce these symptoms. Feeling a little sore or pain in your muscles the next day is also completely natural.
Make a healthy habit of a massage and the symptoms will disappear quickly.
No more trouble with stubble, ingrown hairs and/or bumps. The hairs grow back less quickly and stiffly after 3-4 treatments. The skin feels silky soft after a wax treatment.
There are two different types of wax. The first type is soft wax, also known as strip wax. Soft wax is applied very thinly using a roller and requires a strip to remove the wax. With this wax you can go over the body part to be waxed up to 2 times.
Hard wax, also known as film wax or stripless wax, is applied thicker and requires no cloth or paper strips. It is used on all skin types and is particularly suitable for sensitive skin. The film wax is applied in a thick layer and is then removed from the area; this method is used for the Brazilian wax and armpits.
The hair will stay away for 2-6 weeks. This differs per person and depends among other things, on hormones and medication use.
When you're getting waxed for the first time you can already see / feel stubble after a few days. Rest assured, these are the hairs from a different growth cycle, eg because you recently shaved (3-4 weeks ago). It can take up to 4 treatments before all hairs grow in the same cycle, provided you get waxed regularly and don't shave!
After 3 to 6 weeks, depending on the hair growth and of course whatever you prefer.
Are you waxing for the first time? Then I advise you to schedule the first 4 treatments every 4 weeks. After the 4 weeks we can stretch the period if possible.
Waxing is never painless.
Treatment can sometimes be more painful depending on the following factors; cycle, hormones, medication use.
The ideal length is between 0.5 cm and 1.5 cm long. Hair shorter than 0.5 cm cannot be removed. For hairs longer than 1.5 cm, the treatment can be experienced as very painful. I suggest to trim the part that you want waxed for a less painful experience.
Bikini wax or bikini line
Removal of hair on the sides and top of the bikini line.
Bikini line is defined as any hair that extends outside of a pair of regular bikini bottoms. It does not include the removal of hair on the inner thighs, labia, or anal area.
Brazilian wax
The hair will be completely removed including the hair on the labia.
Full Brazilian wax
This is the Brazilian wax including the hair between the buttocks and around the anus.
No, the hairs come back thicker / stiffer, this makes the next wax treatment again very painful. In addition, you also have a chance of ingrown hairs and itching when the hair grows back.
In the unlikely event that you have shaved, the result that you have built up with waxing is unfortunately nullified. You will have to start over.
Within 2 weeks: these are often the hairs that are from another growth cycle, these were too short during waxing. The waxed hair is pulled out with roots and will therefore not grow back as quickly.
Extra information: especially during the first waxing (even if you have shaved in between!), the hair roots are still very strong. It is therefore always recommended to undergo at least 3-4 treatments, after which it becomes clear how quickly your hair grows back and how often you have to wax. You will also notice that the hairs come back softer and thinner.
Do not shave or pull these hairs out with tweezers, they will be removed the next wax treatment.
The skin gets a considerable shock, causing it to be temporarily (never longer than 3 days) swollen. This can often be remedied by using aloe vera gel after a shower. If the swelling lasts longer than 5 days, contact your doctor.
Make sure you touch the skin as little as possible after the wax treatment - the hair follicles are opened and infections and irritations can occur more easily.
If you get a reaction after a few days / weeks, personal hygiene in combination with high temperatures often plays a major role. Sweat glands can become clogged and the skin can become inflamed. This often occurs in the summer or on vacation. If this continues for a longer period of time, contact your doctor.
No, you can exfoliate again after 2 days. Don't do this every day; 2-3 times a week is sufficient.
Due to the high sensitivity, Miracle Massages does not wax during your period. You can receive treatment again 48 hours after your last bleeding.
If your period starts on the day of the appointment, we can reschedule the appointment free of charge.
Yes. Bear in mind that waxing can sometimes be more painful due to hormones.
Do not wax with fever, headache, menstruation and certain medications that can affect the sensitivity of your skin such as Retin A, Accutane, Tetracycline or Glucolic Acid.
Also there is no waxing with an inflamed skin, hairy moles, warts, bruises and cuts or abrasions.
Let us know if you have diabetes, a skin allergy or have recently had chemo.
If in doubt, you can always send me a message or contact your physician.
No. This is not allowed.
- Scrub the night before.
- Try to consume as few caffeinated drinks as possible on the day of the appointment.
- Come fresh and showered. This is hygienic for both you and me.
- Do not shower too hot and use unscented soap after the treatment.
- Do not lie in the sun or under the sunbed for 24 hours.
Stagnation leads to pain and dysfunction within tissues, so cupping—like acupuncture—aims to clear the stagnation before it causes problems. From a Western standpoint, cupping creates more space between the tissue layers to get rid of dead cellular debris and excess fluids and toxins. It also breaks up scar tissue.
The bruises for cupping can last from a few days to two weeks. During several weeks of repeated cupping treatments, the bruises will decrease as the stagnation disappears. This indicates a successful result of a cupping treatment.
Black, Deep Purple or Deep Blue: Indicates blood stagnation. It can occur when an injury or illness (including strong coldness inducing blood stasis) has resided in the body for a long time. Wind with cold can also manifest as a dark mark.
Fresh Red Color: Indicates a recent traumatic injury with accompanying heat.
Light Pink or Light Blue: Indicates mild coldness.
Small Red dots: Indicates release of heat toxins.
Pale or White mark that fades quickly: Indicates lots of energy and function (Qi).
You may feel fatigued the day after cupping as your body processes the toxins released.
Some people (not everyone) feel chilled, achy, sore, tired and have mild flu-like symptoms after cupping. These detox symptoms are natural and they should be mild and brief.
Drink plenty of water to help eliminate toxins from the body. Avoid showers, steam, sauna and exercise immediately following your treatment. In general, take it easy and rest.
Cupping can help release the fascia (also called myofascial release), especially when the cups are moved along the tissue.
Cupping can help break up scar tissue adhesions, allowing better flow of blood and lymph and freeing bound muscular tissue for improved range of motion and performance.
