You do not need special words
It is enough to say that the pressure feels too strong, the position is uncomfortable or a particular area makes you uncertain.
A clear message lets me adjust immediately.
Silence can also feel comfortable
You do not have to talk throughout the session.
We agree on the important points first, and then you may rest, knowing you can speak at any moment.
Questions are welcome
If you want to know what is happening, simply ask.
Understanding the purpose and scope of touch can make relaxation easier and help build trust.
Small signals are worth mentioning too
Cold feet, the need for knee support or light that feels too bright can disturb rest just like unsuitable pressure.
These details can usually be changed immediately.
Feedback helps rather than judges
Describing your sensations is not criticism of the practitioner.
It is practical information that allows the treatment to respond more accurately to your needs.
