Frequently Asked Questions
Helpful answers about booking, etiquette, payments, and visiting Lucy's Massage and TLC in Victoria, BC.
Booking a Session
Should I just text “hi” or “are you available?”
It is much better to introduce yourself and include the booking details above. Short messages without details are harder to respond to and may slow down the booking process.
How are appointments managed?
Many appointments are reserved in advance. Lucy confirms bookings, reviews requests, and responds as availability allows. Providing complete details helps avoid back-and-forth messages.
Do you accept new clients?
Yes, new clients are welcome. Please read the website first so you understand the services, rates, booking process, and expectations before contacting Lucy.

Massage Oil and Products
What type of oil do you use?
Lucy uses unscented fractionated coconut oil. It is warmed before use and chosen because it feels comfortable on the skin and washes off more easily than heavier oils.
Will the oil wash off easily?
Yes. Fractionated coconut oil is lighter than regular coconut oil and usually washes off easily.
What products are used for cleaning?
Cleaning products may include disinfecting wipes and household cleaners for surfaces, plus gentle soap products for guest use. If you have allergies or sensitivities, please mention them before booking.
