Massage Therapy – What to Expect?
Your massage therapy session will begin by the massage therapist asking you about your reasons for attending a massage session, your current physical condition, brief medical history, lifestyle, stress level, and areas of pain.
Based on the assessment findings, you and the massage therapist will discuss the desired outcome of your session and determine which parts of your body require massage. Depending on your specific needs you will either receive a full-body massage, or focus on specific body areas in the case of injury, pain or tightness.
Our well-trained Massage Therapists will apply a variety of techniques to address your individual needs with a calm, comforting, caring, respectful, non-judgmental demeanor.
Following the appointment, the massage therapist will provide you with recommendations for continued treatment if required.
