LONDON CITY MASSAGE
OPENING HOURS
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What are your opening hours?
Mark offers slots seven days a week for your convenience and rotates break days, so the listed opening times should be taken as a guide rather than literally. All bookings can be made through Mark directly on WhatsApp.
Short notice booking is sometimes possible, but for the best choice of date and time, booking a day or so in advance is the best option. Bookings can be made a week in advance, and in special circumstances even earlier.
How do I make an appointment?
All appointments should be made through WhatsApp (text). 07837788940.
Evenings are the most popular time, so advance booking, a day or so before is advised. To make things quick and easy, include your name, the type of massage, and duration that takes your interest in your first message.
Where are you based?
In the Barbican estate, zone 1 above Barbican Tube. A 3 minute walk from the Elizabeth line Farringdon stop, Barbican exit. 2 stops from Kings Cross, or Liverpool Street tube, (circle line) and only a 5 minute walk from St. Paul’s, or Moorgate tubes. EC2Y 8DN. See Location page for more.
May I shower? Yes, a shower is available after your session. If you would also like to shower before please mention while booking, to help with timing.

Do you do outcalls?
Mark does not do any outcalls (travel). The studio is super central at Barbican Tube which is easy to reach by all methods of public transport and car / taxi.
What type of massage should I choose?
Check the option descriptions on the Homepage. We can discuss your needs and ascertain if you have any contraindications (injuries or reasons for avoiding massaging certain areas) prior to your session.
Are you qualified?
Mark is qualified and was awarded 2 ITEC diplomas in Sports and Swedish body massage and covered by insurance.
What oil do you use?
You have a choice, but most often I use Almond Oil, which is known as a base oil since it has no scent, is not sticky and absorbs easily in to the skin.
What should I wear?
You can arrive wearing what you like. During the massage and immediately before you will be draped (covered) by a towel. Please avoid moisturising, aftershave, or strong scents before your treatment.
What music can I have?
Relaxing massage music is played during your treatment, with options to suit your taste.
Do you offer deals / discounts for regular clients?
Yes, this depends on how regular you intend to be and the length of your session. We can talk about this when you come.
What's your studio like?
The studio is in a private residence, not a shop. It is well heated, equipped with professional standard heated massage table, high quality warm oils, and fresh towels. You're welcome to shower before and or after your treatment. Please see pictures in Gallery.
Do you have any reviews?
At the time of writing I have over 300 five star reviews from previous and current clients, some who come every week. Check them out for yourself on the reviews page.
