What to expect
Before beginning your massage, your therapist will conduct a brief consultation to determine whether it's safe to treat your injury or pain.
Next, they'll work with you to ease tension and free up movement. We recommend booking at least 90-minutes for complex tension to give your therapist time to work on tight areas.
