This are just a few of the benefits to a regular massage.
A massage will last 60 or 90 minutes and that is 60 or 90 minutes of massage time. That does not include the intake and the outtake. You should plan on being in my office for about 30 minutes over you massage time.
When you receive a massage from me there will be an intake. An intake is getting information before the massage so I can plan a session that is tailored around you and what would best support you. If it is you first time for a massage with me I will have you fill out paper work that includes a medical intake form. That way I will know if there is anything that is in your medical history that by receiving a massage would not be advised with out doctors approval. The intake takes about 5 or 10 minutes. After the intake I will leave the room so you can get undressed to your comfort level and get under a sheet and blanket. The only part that will be uncovered is the part I am working on at the time when I am finished with that body part I will recover it and uncover the next one. After I am done with the massage I will leave the room and have you get dressed and after you are dressed there will be an outtake. In the outtake I will talk about what I noticed in your muscles which ones was tight and I will give you ways to help them when you are at home between massages.
