Foot Reflexology

No. You stay fully clothed; only your shoes and socks come off. That makes it a good choice if you want bodywork but would rather not undress.

It is exceptionally good at producing deep relaxation, and people often report sleeping better afterwards. It does not diagnose or cure illness, and the foot "map" is a traditional framework rather than proven anatomy.

Foot Reflexology costs $45 and lasts 45 min.

Anthony or Rima. You can ask for a particular practitioner when you book.

Swedish for general tension and stress, and the default if you are unsure. Deep tissue for persistent knots and long-held tension. Thai for stiffness and restricted movement, done clothed on a mat. Lymphatic drainage for fluid retention and heavy legs, not for muscle knots.

You undress to whatever you are comfortable with, in private, and lie under a sheet on a heated table. Only the area being worked on is uncovered. For Thai massage and reflexology you stay fully clothed.

For general wellbeing and stress, once a month is a sensible default. For a specific problem, weekly or fortnightly for three to six sessions, then space them out. For desk stiffness, every three to four weeks alongside some daily stretching.
