In Lanzarote, you can have the treatment in a massage room in the town of Costa Teguise. In La Graciosa, the treatment must always take place at the client’s home, hotel, or apartment. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

It depends on where and when it takes place. Typically, massage sessions are priced as follows: <\/p>\n

\u2013 \u20ac60 Monday through Friday (except the Playa Blanca and La Graciosa areas).<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u20ac70 on weekends, holidays, and throughout the Playa Blanca area (Lanzarote).<\/p>\n

Yes, of course. It’s<\/b> also a great idea<\/b>, since having more time will allow me to give you a more thorough massage by focusing on the areas where you need it most, or to combine different techniques in the same session. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

It’s normal to feel some discomfort or pressure during a massage, especially if you’re getting a massage to relieve muscle tension or for deep-tissue work. However, you should always let your massage therapist know if you feel any intense or uncomfortable pain during the session. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\u2013 Skin conditions such as dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis, or herpes<\/p>\n

\u2013 Recent injuries such as fractures, sprains, or muscle tears. You must wait until the injury has completely healed before receiving a massage. In these cases, manual lymphatic drainage may be performed to help eliminate any swelling caused by the injury(ies), provided that a medical professional approves it. <\/p>\n

\u2013 Serious circulatory problems, such as deep vein thrombosis or phlebitis<\/p>\n

\u2013 Heart diseases such as congestive heart failure or angina<\/p>\n

\u2013 Fever or active infections.<\/p>\n

These are some of the most common contraindications. It is important to consult a healthcare professional<\/b> before receiving any type of massage, especially if you have a preexisting medical condition that could pose a risk.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
