History

Conservation
Water is scarce on Sal—local businesses often emphasize efficient water use and sustainable practices; visitors should conserve water and support eco-conscious operators.

Arrive Early
Plan to arrive 10–15 minutes before your appointment to complete health questions and settle in; the treatment is private and punctual.
Hydrate Before and After
Heat and massage increase circulation—drink water before and after to aid recovery and reduce dizziness.
Disclose Health Conditions
Tell the therapist about pregnancy, high blood pressure, recent surgeries, or skin issues so they can modify pressure and stone placement.
Avoid Direct Sun Post-Treatment
Skin may be more sensitive after massage; skip intense sun or prolonged beach time for a few hours to prevent irritation.
Loose Clothing
Easy-to-remove garments make changing comfortable and let you relax after the session.
Reusable Water Bottle
Hydration supports circulation before and after heat-based therapies.
Light Cover-Up or Sarong
