About this session

Bodywork organized around an injury and the person’s current stage of recovery. The session considers the affected area, surrounding areas carrying additional demands, and any relevant restrictions or care guidance. Attention may shift as activity and comfort change. The aim is to provide appropriate, responsive bodywork within the wider recovery process.

Clothing is what stays on your body; draping is how sheets or blankets provide coverage. Mostly clothed means keeping most clothing on while allowing access to a specific area. No clothing still includes the draping we agree on.

We’ll choose from these options around your stage of recovery, current comfort, and any relevant care guidance.

What to expect
