What to Expect
Before you come:
We recommend you bring any medical information or imaging related to your case.
We also recommend you bring any information pertaining to private insurance, as we do direct billing on behalf of our patients.
On your first visit, you will come 15 minutes early to fill out the intake form and health history. Then Amy or Robin will come to grab you from the waiting room!
The History + Exam
At your first massage therapy session, your massage therapist will ask you about any symptoms you may have (like lower back pain) and will also ask questions about your medical history. The therapist will perform some tests to confirm his clinical impression. The practitioner may also initiate a discussion about what you expect to achieve from the massage session.
Treatment
The massage therapist leaves the room while you undress and lie down on the massage table. A sheet is draped over your body during the session and moved only to expose the part of the body being worked on at any given time.
Massage oil or lotion is often used to reduce friction between the practitioner’s hands and your skin. The room is kept warm and free of distractions. The therapist will ask whether they are applying too much or too little pressure. Soft music may be playing in the background.
The manner in which a practitioner massages your body depends on the problem being treated. A massage session can last from 30-90 minutes and may include a schedule of follow up visits, depending on the severity of your situation
