Swedish Massage in West Lothian

Please feel free to park in the layby just to the left-hand side near the entrance to my house. There's usually a bright green car sitting in my driveway — you won't miss it! 💚

If that layby is full, there's another one just a little further down the road.

Please be mindful of my neighbours and make sure driveways and access points are kept clear. Thank you! 🫶

Whatever you feel comfortable in!

Just bear in mind that there may be a little excess massage oil or wax left on your skin afterwards, so you might want to choose something loose-fitting or something you're not too precious about.

And please don't panic about the pre-massage preparation…

Haven't shaved your legs? I really don't care. 😂
Hair needs washed? I wouldn't bother — it may get a little oily anyway!
Socks on or off? Completely up to you.

There's absolutely no judgement here. Come as you are. 💚

For a massage, you would normally undress down to your underwear, keeping your lower underwear on. You will always be appropriately covered with towels throughout your treatment, with only the area being worked on exposed.

However, your comfort comes first.

If you don't feel comfortable removing certain garments, please just let me know. I can absolutely work around this — there's no awkwardness and no pressure.

Apart from a warm welcome and a lovely relaxing treatment… there is a little bit of paperwork first! 😂

Before your treatment, I'll ask you to complete a short health questionnaire so I can make sure massage is appropriate and safe for you on the day. Do not worry if your health questionnaire takes a little longer, your treatment time will always remain the same.

It's important that I know about any relevant health conditions, medications, injuries or recent procedures so that your treatment can be tailored appropriately.

Safety first — no lawsuits here! 😂

Please aim to arrive on time for your appointment, rather than too early, as I may still be finishing another treatment.

If you arrive a little early, don't worry — just wait in your car until your appointment time as I may still be with a client or cleaning my treatment room ready for your arrival.

If you're running late, please let me know as soon as you can. Your treatment may need to be shortened if there isn't enough time remaining, but the original appointment fee will still apply.

Not necessarily!

If you're unsure what would suit you best, we can have a quick chat before your treatment and work out what you're looking for. The only thing I need to know in advance is if you would like hot stone massage as I would have to prepare these ahead of your treatment.

Whether you need to switch off, ease general tension or simply have an hour where nobody needs anything from you… I've got you. 🫶

Please do! 😂

Falling asleep is often a pretty good sign that your body has decided it's finally time to relax.

Snoring is also completely acceptable. In fact, I may quietly take it as a compliment. 😉

Absolutely.

If you fancy a chat, I'm happy to chat. If you want complete peace and quiet, that's absolutely fine too. Music on or off, it's completely your choice.

There is no expectation to make conversation. This is your time, so you can relax however feels most comfortable for you.

A £20 deposit is taken when booking your appointment, with the remaining balance payable at your appointment. I have a card reader for payments on site.

Please see my booking terms and conditions for full details regarding cancellations, rearranging appointments and no-shows.

Yes please! 🙏

Please take a moment to read my booking terms and conditions before making your appointment.

They contain all the important bits about deposits, cancellations, rearranging appointments and other booking information.

They may not be the most exciting reading in the world… but they are important!

At present, I do not offer massage during pregnancy as I have not yet completed the additional in-depth training required to provide pregnancy massage.

Your safety is always my priority, and I will only offer treatments where I feel appropriately trained and confident to do so.

It depends on the condition, your current health and any treatment or medication you may be receiving.

This is why your health questionnaire and consultation are so important. If there is any uncertainty about whether massage is appropriate, I may ask you to seek advice from your GP or relevant healthcare professional before treatment.

I'll always put your safety first.

Yes. Restore and Release is a women-only massage space, created to provide a calm, comfortable and welcoming environment where you can properly switch off.

My treatment room is within my house, my garage has been converted to provide a lovely calming space. Access is via a single door therefore if there are any issues with mobility please discuss with me prior to booking. You must be able to transfer onto my treatment bed.

If you are a wheelchair user and unable to transfer, my space may not be suitable but I can discuss coming to your home to provide a treatment there.

Please come alone to your appointment, I do not have sufficient space for someone to wait whilst you receive your treatment.

Just come as you are.

You don't need to have perfectly smooth legs, freshly washed hair or any idea what your body needs that day.

My job is to make you feel comfortable, listened to and well cared for — while you get some much-needed time to relax.

Your time. Your treatment. Your space.

Now… pop your phone on silent, get comfy and let me do the rest. 🌿
