Physical Positioning Requirements

Clients must lie flat for the entire procedure without pillows or bolsters, which cannot be accommodated for health and safety reasons. If you experience vertigo or have difficulty lying flat and turning your head comfortably, this procedure may not be appropriate. Please contact me before booking to discuss any concerns or possible accommodations.

Additionally, clients must remain still throughout the procedure to ensure precision and safety. Those who experience tremors or difficulty remaining still may find this procedure challenging. Please reach out beforehand if this applies to you.

For any inquiries, please contact Larissa directly.
