Frequently Asked Questions
How is remedial massage different from relaxation massage?
While both feel wonderful, remedial massage is specifically designed to address musculoskeletal issues.
Our therapists assess your problem areas and use targeted techniques to treat underlying causes of pain or tension. You'll still feel relaxed, but you'll also experience lasting therapeutic benefits.
Can remedial massage help with chronic pain conditions?
Yes! Remedial massage can be very effective for managing chronic pain conditions like fibromyalgia, arthritis, and chronic headaches. It works particularly well when combined with our exercise physiology programs and lifestyle coaching for a comprehensive approach to pain management.
How does massage fit with your other services?
Massage therapy complements our exercise programs beautifully! It can help prepare your muscles for exercise, aid recovery after workouts, and address any tension that develops as you increase your activity levels. Many of our clients find this combination particularly effective for achieving their health goals.
What if I've never had a remedial massage before?
Don't worry, we'll make sure you feel completely comfortable. Our therapists are experienced in working with first-time clients and will explain everything as we go. Many people are pleasantly surprised by how relaxing and beneficial their first massage experience is!
