Your session begins with a brief intake to review history and goals. The therapist uses targeted techniques for tight areas, adjusts pressure to comfort, and offers post-session recommendations for stretching, hydration, and follow-up care.

Arrive hydrated and wearing comfortable clothing. Avoid heavy meals immediately before. Bring any relevant medical notes or recent imaging, and be ready to discuss areas of pain, prior injuries, and current medications with your therapist.

Certain acute conditions like fever, contagious illness, open wounds, recent fractures, deep vein thrombosis, or uncontrolled hypertension may contraindicate massage. Pregnant clients and those with medical concerns should consult their physician and inform the therapist before booking.

Some techniques can cause brief discomfort if addressing deep tension or trigger points, but therapists continuously check pressure. Communicate openly about pain thresholds so the therapist can modify intensity and ensure therapeutic benefit without undue pain.

Frequency depends on your goals: acute pain may benefit from weekly sessions for several weeks, while maintenance often works at every 2–4 weeks. Athletes or chronic conditions may require a tailored plan discussed with your therapist.

Coverage varies by insurer and medical necessity. We can provide superbills and documentation when a physician referral or diagnosis supports therapy. Contact your insurance for specifics; we offer self-pay and package options for convenience.
