Massage is very invasive and any physical malady may cause contraindications that could be detrimental to your health. The Therapist will then review your information before we begin treatment. This helps us determine how to fine-tune your particular treatment.

How Often Should I Come For A Massage?

In a perfect world, you should get a massage every week. However, if time does not allow, plan a massage once a month.

 

Let’s say you have chronic pain underneath your shoulder blade. You may need three over the course of 10-14 days until the pain is under control and you gain better mobility in those areas. Your massage therapist will recommend when you should return for your next session.

 

If you've received enough pain relief from several massage sessions and you feel you are functioning at your best, schedule your follow-up massage appointment next month. View massage as a maintenance tactic in managing your health and stress levels.
