What To Expect During Your Massage
First, we will discuss your health concerns and then determine what type of massage would be most beneficial for you.
The length of your massage will depend on the length of time you have scheduled. Shorter sessions are designed to address a limited need, such as localized neck pain. A one hour massage is designed as a complete, total body, relaxation massage. A one hour massage can also address localized pain.
Your session will then take place in a quiet, warm and safe room. Most massage techniques are performed with the client unclothed. You will be asked to undress only to the level of your comfort. You will remain completely covered during the massage with a sheet except for the area currently receiving the therapy. A light lotion or oil is usually used. Soothing music is also usually played as part of the experience.
The therapist will either gently move you or tell you what is needed throughout the session (such as lifting your arm). Many people close their eyes and even fall asleep. Others like to talk. Feel free to ask your practitioner questions about massage and bodywork in general or about the particular technique you are receiving.
