Your appointment will begin with an Intake where you will talk with your massage therapist about your goals for the treatment and your health history.

Your therapist will need to know about any previous injuries or surgeries, and medications you are taking.
The massage therapist will leave the room while you have the chance to get comfortable on the table. You can remain fully clothed or undress to your own level of comfort. You will be professionally draped with a sheet and blanket. Only the area that
is being worked on will be uncovered.
During the massage the therapist will check in with you about the comfort of the pressure. You will be encouraged to let us know if you need more or less pressure, or if you would like more time spent in a specific area. Please feel free to communicate what works best for you. All clients are different. We want to work with you to achieve your goals.
