1. Good pressure. Knows all the critical points.
2. Excellent binding skills. Follow the traditional binding in which you are being rolled like a mummy with a corset and then a long cloth, tightened with the safety pin.
3. Very hygienic - change the cloth daily. 
4. Knows when to chat and when not to.
5. massage with relaxing music (yes she brought along her portable mini mp3 player!)
6. Punctual and no nonsense. Will sms you if late and will stick to the schedule.

=(

1. once date and timing fixed, very hard to change as she is always fully booked. 
2. cream and oil not spicy enough (but I am still fine with her oil)
3. as she collects the cloth and corset daily, you will have to keep them in a bag after you use it on the last day. She will come and collect from you during the weekends or other days. (not a big issue to me though)

If only I can have the sauna, all towels provided (from the last post natal massage), together with her experience massaging techniques and her systematic approach, then it would be a very good and comprehensive post natal massage. But I think it is very hard to get best of everything. Well, I don't mind asking her to do ad-hoc massaging for me once in a while if her schedule permits to relieve my achy muscles. =}
