What is Massage
Therapy?
Massage Therapy is an enjoyable, therapeutic
way to relax, as well as a useful tool for the
maintenance of various ailments. It involves the
manipulation of soft tissue by a skilled and licensed
therapist. Our massage therapists are trained in myoskeletal alignment, lympedema
massage, sports massage, Strain-Counterstrain, and more. They take a
individualized approach depending on your personal needs and the most
beneficial means of treatment.

What's It Going To Be Like?
If you would like a massage, but are curious what
it will be like, here are a few tips on what to
expect:
· Please arrive 10 minutes
early so you can fill out our health questionnaire
· The therapist will review
the questionnaire with you and answer any of your
questions.
· The therapist will then
leave and allow you to undress to your comfort
level. How much clothing you remove is entirely
up to you, you will be under a sheet or blanket
throughout the massage and only the areas the
therapist is working on will be exposed.
· A normal massage involves
working on your feet, legs, back, arms, hands,
neck, and face. If you have a particular area
you would like to concentrate on, please let her
know so she can provide extra attention to that
area.
· How deep will the massage
be? That is entirely up to you. Remember this
is your massage session and your comfort is very
important. If the pressure is too deep, not deep
enough, or uncomfortable, please let your therapist
know. Both you and the therapist will be thankful.
· After your massage,
it is important to drink extra water. Massage
not only provides relaxation and relief from muscle
tension, it helps eliminate toxins from your system.
Therefore drinking water is essential.
