Frequently Asked Questions
Here you can find answers on frequently asked massage questions. If you cannot find the answer, feel free to text or call us.
Before the start of your massage, your therapist will ask you what type of pressure you'd like for your massage.
- Light
- Medium
- Firm
Pressure varies from therapists to therapist as well as from body part to body part. As long as you keep your therapist informed as to any changing pressure preferences, you'll both enjoy your massage and receive maximum benefit from it.
How do I determine optimum pressure? Whether the client can relax AND take deep breaths. Sometimes we think that more is more, but tensing muscles is counterproductive to the goal of massage.
Deep tissue massage is an option as well.
I typically ask clients prior to their massage what type of pressure they prefer: light, medium or firm. Since pressure is subjective, my rule of thumb is you should be able to breathe deeply, no matter the level of massage. Once a client is holding their breath or tensing their joints in any way, the pressure is counterproductive to the goal of massage. Because various parts of the body respond to pressure differently, it's always a good idea to provide feedback to your therapist if your pressure needs change. This ensures that you get your best massage.
If you would like extra attention paid to an area, please let your therapists know in advance. Common requests for extra time spent are:
- face/scalp
- neck/shoulders
- hip/hamstrings
- hands
- feet
We are more than happy to customize your massage to suit you.
Following a massage, we recommend drinking water and staying hydrated.
For longer massages, 90 minutes or more, clients often want to either go to sleep or soak. Planning enough down-time post-massage to continue relaxing can be helpful.
