Here are 5 tips to help YOU get the most out of your next massage:

Arrive early for your appointment

You’ve waited for your massage all week, why miss a minute of valuable treatment time? Arriving 20 minutes early to your appointment will help you get into a relaxed state and give you ample time to change into a comfy robe and enjoy hot tea or a glass of water in our tranquil Relaxation Room before your treatment.

Communicate any problem areas to your therapist

Before the start of your service, thoroughly communicate with your therapist if you have any chronic pain, sports injuries, skin conditions, or if you simply need extra attention on a certain area of the body. Communicating beforehand allows your therapist to focus on problem areas or use specific products during your treatment to enhance your overall experience.

Give your therapist feedback

During your service, let your therapist know if something is feeling good or not. Your therapist will take note and make any necessary adjustments allowing you to receive the results you are looking for from your treatment.

Hydrate pre-massage and post-massage

Properly hydrating before and after your service will help rehydrate your muscles preventing unnecessary soreness. Increasing water intake will also assist your body in clearing your lymphatic system and removing metabolic waste.

Enjoy the moment!

A massage is a wonderful thing and an act of self-care. Be present, relax and enjoy your ME time moment. Your body will thank you later.
