Questions
What are the benefits of regular massage therapy?
Regular sessions can reduce stress, improve immune function, enhance mental wellness, aid pain management, and boost physical fitness through targeted muscle therapy.
What should I wear during a massage?
Clients undress to their comfort level with proper draping maintained throughout the session. Therapists leave the room during undressing to ensure privacy.
Is massage therapy painful?
Sessions should not cause pain. Therapists adjust pressure based on client feedback. Some techniques may cause temporary soreness similar to post-workout muscle fatigue.
Can I receive massage during pregnancy?
Prenatal massage is available after the first trimester with physician approval. Specialized techniques address pregnancy-related discomforts while ensuring safety for both mother and baby.
What conditions contraindicate massage therapy?
Avoid sessions during illness, fever, contagious skin conditions, first trimester pregnancy, or active chemotherapy. Always consult your physician with medical concerns.
How often should I schedule massage sessions?
Frequency depends on individual needs - weekly for intensive treatment or monthly for maintenance. Our Wellbeing program offers structured monthly wellness plans.
