Blaizing
Lotus is thriving in a very convenient east Asheville location, right off of Tunnel
road.
I
have a private practice studio attached to my home, where
I have created a safe, clean, and aesthetically pleasing environment,
that promotes healing, comfort, and
serenity.
Blaizing Lotus offers the oasis of a spa without the inflated spa
prices, the professionalism of a clinic without the "clinical"
atmoshere, and a warmness and personal connection that wouldn't be
possible without a private practice.
FAQ
Q: What are your hours?
A: I work every day, with flexible hours ranging from 10-7.
Q: Where are you located?
A: I work in a convenient, easy to find east Asheville location, very
close to downtown. When you schedule your appointment I will give you the
address/directions to my studio.
Q: What are your rates?
A: Normal massage rates are $60 per hour and $80 per hour and 1/2,
unless you get a deep tissue which adds an additional $10. Spa fees
vary, please see the "Spa Services" link for details. If you are a
first time client, you get a $10 introductory discount. My
hottest deal available now: Buy 4 massages, get one free!
Q: How much advance notice do you need?
A: 24 hours
notice will usually guarantee your desired appointment time, but do not
hesitate to call me last minute because if I can do it I absolutely
will!
Q: Is there a shower available?
A: YES. My studio has it's own private bathroom with
a shower just for you!
Q: Is there parking?
A: YES! And you don't have to feed a meter!
Q: Do you take credit cards?
A: YES! Blaizing Lotus takes all payment methods: cash, credit cards,
paypal and checks, Although if you're a first time client I ask that
you don't pay with a check.
Q: Do you offer undraped or sensual massages?
A: NO. I offer only professional and ethical massage, and NC state law
required that the genitals and gluteal cleft are covered, and if you are female the
breasts will be covered as well.
Q: What if I get aroused?
A: Erections will be ignored, because sometimes it is unintentional,
but if one sexual advance or comment is made, the session will
immediately be terminated and you will be asked to pay me and leave.
Q: You work at home, is this as professional as a spa or clinic?
A: Absolutely! My studio is separate from my living space with a
private entrance and bathroom. Not only is it just as clean and
professional, but because I represent
myself and I get paid more than one would in a spa or clinic, I can be
more enthusiastic about giving you the best treatment
possible.Additionally, I don't have as much overhead, so I am able to
afford nicer products and don't cut any corners.
Q: What's included in each massage?
A: Every massage is a blend of different techniques, tailored to fit
your needs. Deep tissue, assisted stretching, and essential oils may be
incorporated. During the winter months, you can also expect a heated
table, warm oil, and a mineral heat lamp.
Q: Do you do outcalls?
A: No, I feel that this puts me in a vulnerable situation and is not
something I feel comfortable with. However, my central location is easy
to find and convenient to all areas of Asheville.
Q: Do I need to bring anything or wear anything special?
A: The only thing you need to bring is yourself and payment. It doesn't
matter what you wear, just remember to wear undies if you're
uncomfortable being completely nude on the table.
Q: Do I have to take all of my clothes off?
A: Before your massage you will be asked to undress to your comfort
level, (while I leave the room) and although you will be draped the
entire time, you may not be comfortable with being completely nude, in
which case you are encouraged to leave your underwear on.
Q: Do you sell products?
A: YES! The products available are all homemade and natural. I offer herbal tinctures, salves, lip balms, soaps and earrings.
Q: Why do you ask me to drink water after my massage?
A: Drinking water after a massage helps to rehydrate the muscles and
flush out the toxins that were released during your session. Hydrating
after a massage greatly reduces the potential for headaches, muscle
pain and soreness in the days following a massage.
