be guided in a relaxation journey while the oil soaks in
Before the class begins be sure to have these materials ready:
-
oil - organic sesame oil (not toasted) or some sunflower oil (if you have tendencies of heat, rashes, hot flashes or heartburn). Send me a message if you are unsure which oil would be best for you.
-
a pot of hot water to put the jar or bottle of oil in to warm up. We will do this at the beginning of the meeting.
-
towel that you don't mind getting oil on
-
a robe or clothes that you could put on after the oil massage. They will get oily, so pick something that is not too fancy.
