What to Wear
For those that prefer to get completely undressed or wear undergarments, you will be properly draped with comfortable linen. If you prefer not to get undressed, you can wear shorts and a shirt of thin cotton material to allow effective work to be done.
Intake forms
On your first visit, you will be asked to fill out an intake form to get important information that will guide our session. You may arrive 5 minutes before your scheduled appointment to complete the forms.
During Your Session
Your comfort is of utmost importance. Please feel free to offer any feedback or ask any questions at any time during your session.
We will begin your session with a series of questions about the history of your body (such as injuries and activities) and go through an orthopedic assessment to give us a better idea of what your body is presenting and what our approach will be.
As we work on the massage table, you will be guided through gentle muscle contractions and movements to target the areas of concern. The specific massage techniques will be applied according to your comfort level and to the proper therapeutic dose.
We may or may not begin at the site of your pain or complaint since the site of pain is not always necessarily the site to be be worked. We will treat your body holistically and address the key areas and specific tissues involved to bring your body into balance.
At the end of your session, it is common that a personalized exercise or movement will be suggested for you to perform to increase the speed of your recovery and proper long-time health of your body.
If you prefer and if it is indicated, we will take some time together to go through a few dynamic movements and stretches to make use of what we've gained during the hands-on treatment.
Most people sign up for the 80 minute session for this option.This will help to speed recovery and rehabilitation and integrate our changes much faster.
