Questions
What conditions make massage therapy inadvisable?
Clients should consult a physician if under medical care. Complete our New Client Registration form to disclose health conditions or medications before sessions.
How does massage therapy differ from chiropractic care?
Massage focuses on soft tissue manipulation for circulation and relaxation, while chiropractic addresses skeletal alignment. Both complement each other for comprehensive pain management.
What should I wear during a massage?
Clients remain draped throughout sessions. Only the area being worked on is exposed, with complete privacy maintained during undressing and dressing.
Can I request specific pressure levels?
Yes, communication during sessions ensures pressure remains within your comfort zone. Adjustments are made based on your feedback throughout the session.
Why drink water after a massage?
Hydration helps flush metabolic waste released during soft tissue manipulation. Reduces post-massage soreness and supports the body's natural detoxification processes.
How often should I schedule massages?
Frequency depends on individual needs. Weekly sessions benefit chronic pain management, while monthly appointments maintain general wellness and stress prevention.
