Race week
A short, light session early in the week of a race. Nothing deep and nothing new.
In race week we do less, not more. Sessions are 30 or 45 minutes at easy pressure, booked early in the week, and we leave your legs alone in the last two days. Book as soon as your race date is set; these times fill first.
30 or 45 minutes
Light, brisk strokes
Early in the week, never the day before
In the room
Race date, travel and how you usually feel in race week.
We agree an easy pressure and any area to leave alone.
Long, quick strokes on the legs or the whole body.
Good to know
We ask before we start and check as we go. Lighter or firmer, just say.
A sheet or towel the whole time. Only the part we are working on is uncovered.
If you are hurt, unwell or pregnant, ask your doctor or midwife before you book.
Whatever you like to arrive in. Bring nothing; we have the sheets.
Licensed massage therapist
Dewi came to massage through trail running, and she works with ultrarunners and with anyone in race week or the week after. Her sessions are quiet and unhurried, with the pressure always yours to change. She speaks English and Indonesian.
Early in the week, and as soon as your race date is set. Race-week times fill first.
Because race week is not the time to try anything your legs are not used to. If you want to talk through the plan, we will.
We leave your legs alone in the last two days. If you need a place to talk through the morning, call us.
Early in the week, while there are times left.
