Your First Massage: What to Expect and How to Prepare

Getting your first professional massage can feel a bit nerve-wracking, but knowing what to expect makes the experience much more enjoyable. At Evexia Vitality, we welcome many first-time clients and always ensure they feel completely comfortable.

Before Your Appointment

Booking

You can book your appointment through Treatwell, where you'll select your preferred treatment type and duration. If you're unsure which treatment to choose, our relaxation massage is an excellent starting point.

Preparation Tips

What Happens When You Arrive

Our salon is located on the ground floor of the Eschertoren building in Leiden, near Leiden Centraal Station. Look for the red carpet at the entrance. Free parking is available at the rear.

When you arrive, we'll have a brief conversation about your health conditions, areas of tension, comfort level with pressure, and any allergies.

During Your Massage

Privacy and Comfort

You'll be in a private, warm room with calming ambiance. You undress to your comfort level and are covered with a sheet throughout the session.

Communication

Your comfort is our top priority. Feel free to speak up at any time about pressure, focus areas, or room temperature.

The Treatment

We use premium natural oils and care products. The therapist will work systematically through different muscle groups, adjusting technique and pressure based on your preferences.

After Your Massage

Common Concerns

Will it hurt? A relaxation massage should never hurt. Deep tissue may have moments of intensity, but pain is never the goal.

What if I fall asleep? Many clients drift off, and that's perfectly fine!

Do I need to talk? Not at all. Both conversation and silence are completely acceptable.
