We start every appointment with a short conversation and body assessment to identify your needs—whether it’s tension release, injury recovery, or deep relaxation. Based on this, we recommend the best fit: Relaxation/Swedish for stress relief, Therapeutic/Deep Tissue for chronic tightness, or Sports Massage for performance and recovery. You can also combine techniques in one session for a truly personalized experience.

If you’re addressing a specific issue, start with weekly or biweekly visits for 2–4 weeks to create lasting change. For general wellness and stress management, every 3–4 weeks is ideal. Athletes often book sessions before and after major events to optimize performance and recovery.

Have a light meal a couple of hours before your session, hydrate well, and avoid heavy exercise right beforehand. Jewelry and watches are best removed, and clothing should be comfortable. You’ll always be professionally draped, and you can choose the room temperature, music, and whether to use unscented products.

You can choose between 60, 90, or 120 minutes. Each session includes an initial consultation, tailored bodywork focused on your goals, pressure adjustments throughout, and closing stretches or breathing techniques to integrate results. We also offer simple aftercare advice—hydration, posture tips, or light movement—to help you maintain progress.

No. Deep tissue doesn’t mean painful—it means precise and intentional. We build pressure gradually, monitor your breath and muscle feedback, and never cross into pain. The aim is to release tension without forcing the body to guard or resist.

Massage is safe for most people, but certain conditions—fever, infections, blood clots, fresh injuries, or open wounds—require postponement. If you’re pregnant, we offer specialized prenatal massage in a side-lying position with full support, focusing on lower back, hips, and legs. During the first trimester, we work only with your doctor’s approval to ensure maximum safety.
