Maple Leaf Massage

If you're new around here, hiya!

Here's a little reminder of what I actually offer at Maple Leaf Massage 🍁 Massage, including pregnancy and post-natal sessions, facials, and guided meditations.

Everything is completely tailored to you, whether you want to properly switch off, work on a particular area of tension, or just have an hour where nobody needs anything from you.

Escaping for a week to some sunshine, waves, and tzatziki!

I’m going to *try* to switch off while I’m away but we’ll see haha

Diary’s filling up quickly for the first couple weeks of September, so don’t leave it too long to get some ‘oh no, summer’s over 😭😭’ care in!

See you lovely lot soon! 💜🍁

Looking for a way to bond with your little one? Or maybe they’ve got tummy troubles you can’t seem to sort out? Why not try infant massage 💜

Over the course of 4 sessions, you’ll be shown how to safely massage them in a private, supportive environment. It’s a lush way to bond and the benefits for baby (and you!) are innumerable ✨

I’m so excited to be adding these to my services! If you know me personally, you’ll know that I was a nursery practitioner for a few years and absolutely adore babies and children 👶

DM me or comment below to find out more!

A (not so) friendly reminder that these types of requests are considered sexual harassment and you WILL be blocked, reported, and your details saved and shared with other local massage therapists.

I’ve been very fortunate that my BS radar is pretty good and I can spot these types of requests a mile off. But that doesn’t stop them from coming to my inbox every now and again…

If you are looking for these types of services, stop wasting our time and your own. There are avenues for that. Massage therapists are NOT the avenue.

I honestly despair

This is the kind of crap we deal with when we offer massage. I’m pretty sure I’m not meant to have a controversial opinion on social media as a business

But I could not careless because when we choose to offer services to men this is what we get. Now I know it’s not all men and I run a gender neutral salon because we never want men to feel unwelcome, unless you are James here and I really want him to be uncomfortable. I also won’t applaud the men who don’t make us feel uncomfortable, because thats called been normal.

But guess what in 15 years of the salon been open not one women has made us feel uncomfortable, not one have I had to decline a treatment to. For men.. around 20% get declined before even getting to the salon.

It’s the reason I have lone working policies, it’s the reason my team are taught safety measures and how it’s ok to walk straight out of a treatment if they do not feel safe

And yet again it’s the reason I have another therapist who no longer feels safe taking male massage clients.

How dare you make us feel like this, how dare you make women feel sexualised just going to work or unsafe

I’ve had men tell me they were just joking when they put s**t like this on forms. Like how?? How is making young women feel unsafe funny? Or is that how you get your fun??

And for those that don’t know this is pretty standard behaviour in the industry.

Imagine if we didn’t have pre questioners like this or James here wasn’t so confident with his requests.

We have also had friends book appointments for people (this may well be the case here) and if it is seriously get rid of those friends because you are enabling the sexualisation of women going to work

This has been passed on to the police and I will publicly shame every person who attempts to make my team feel uncomfortable every again

And if anyone wants to massage James groin let me know and I will hook you up

Due to works at Queen St Station from 25-28 July, my ability to get to is affected, so I’ve had to swap some days around. I’ll be in…

Caerphilly: Sat 25 - Tues 28 all day
Cardiff: Wed 29 PM, Thur 30 AM

The days & times have been updated on my booking system, but don’t hesitate to message me if you have questions or want to book in!

It's easy to put ourselves at the bottom of the list and only book when stress, tension, or aches become impossible to ignore. These treatment packages are designed to make regular massage more affordable, helping you prioritise your wellbeing before you reach that point.

They're available for all my treatment timings (30, 45, 60, 75, 90 mins) across both locations!

DM me for more info or to snag your package 💜🍁

Went to yesterday with my partner and some friends to celebrate our community. I was so happy to see so many of your lovely faces, have a chat, or just wave from afar 👋🏼

To my LGBTQ+ siblings, please know that you are and will always be welcome and SAFE at Maple Leaf Massage 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
