FAQ or Frequently Asked Questions
-
Each appointment begins with a brief conversation to understand your needs and expectations. After a moment of reflection, the massage begins. The session ends with a few minutes of reflection and closure.

Oil massages are performed directly on the skin. You are completely free to choose whatever you feel comfortable wearing: naked, in underwear, or partially covered.
Your privacy, sensitivity, and boundaries are always respected. Disposable underwear is also available.

No. None of the services offered at Shengdo are of a sexual or erotic nature. Private parts are never massaged, and no “finishing” or similar services are offered.

I mainly use organic vegetable oils, such as sweet almond oil and sesame oil. For my face, I use jojoba oil or argan oil, among others.
The choice depends on the type of massage, the area being treated, and your sensitivity. Please let me know about any allergies or specific sensitivities before the session.
It is essential to use a high-quality oil, as it penetrates your skin and, therefore, your body. -
At Shengdo, massage isn't just about working the muscles. I also place great importance on taking my time, the quality of touch, breathing, how the client feels, and their overall well-being.
The energetic aspect is an integral part of my approach to massage, particularly through grounding, centering, and mindfulness.
-
In various traditions, concepts such as Qi (Chi), Ki, and Prana are used to refer to a form of vital energy.
At Shengdo, I use this concept as part of my energy and wellness approach. It is not a scientific measurement or a medical diagnosis.

Each session begins with a time for welcoming and listening. The treatment is then performed directly on the skin, without oil, using slow, deep, and attentive touch.
If you'd like, our conversation can also include a symbolic and emotional interpretation of what you're going through.

The session begins with a discussion to determine your needs and the purpose of the treatment.
You then settle in comfortably on the massage table, fully clothed and with your shoes off. Depending on the treatment you choose, I use various energy-based and dowsing techniques.
A brief discussion wraps up the session.
-
How people feel after a session varies from person to person. Some people feel deeply relaxed, others feel tired or simply different for a while, and still others don't notice anything in particular.
Just take a moment to notice how you're feeling. A new, significant, unusual, or persistent symptom should not be considered a normal side effect of treatment: seek advice from a healthcare professional if necessary.
-
You can cancel your appointment at no charge up to 24 hours before the scheduled time.
Appointments that are not canceled in a timely manner represent a significant burden, both financially and in terms of time and lost opportunities.
If the cancellation deadline is not met, I reserve the right to claim compensation from you equal to the amount of the booked service.Thank you in advance for your kind understanding 🙏
