Create a quiet relaxing environment where your friend knows they won't be disturbed. For example; soft lights or candles, soft melodic music, make sure all answering machines and phones are off ( Is that handy cell phone in there purse, just waiting to surprise you with some loud jingle.. turned off?). Make sure any little ones in the house are taken care of and everyone knows your not to be disturbed. Keep talking to a minimum, encouraging your friend to just drop into the stillness and "let go" of any holding or tension.
Before you begin, take time out to quiet yourself. If you have a meditation practice, nows a great time. The space your in will be felt and transmitted to your friend or client. Also when you begin the massage, take a few moments (if they're face down) with your right hand on they're sacral area and the left on the top of the spine( base of the neck) .You can give a very gentle rock with your right hand- then just "hold", breathe, get centered. Your friend will quickly begin to relax.
Always begin and end each area or sequence with long "effleurage" strokes, with nice smooth transitions. Work slowly..... especially when you find an area where you need to work alittle deeper. The long, slow strokes are especially relaxing.Feel your way- tuning into what feels right..trust you senses.
