Why Massage Therapy?
The key to optimal health is living a balanced life. In today's fast-paced world, one of our greatest health
challenges is to balance the effects of stress in our lives, mentally, physically, and spiritually. Too much stress over
a long period of time can have a negative impact on the quality of our lives and our health.
Therapeutic massage helps to restore balance, bring the body back to normal by triggering the relaxation response
and relieve many of the problems caused by prolonged stress, injury, and illness. Massage not only feels good,

What to Expect During Your Massage.....
The first appointment generally begins with the massage therapist asking what prompted you to get a massage,
your current physical condition, medical history, lifestyle, stress level, and painful areas. The therapist may also
ask you about your health goals and what you hope the massage will do to help you achieve those goals.
For a full-body massage, you will be asked to remove clothing to your level of comfort. Undressing takes place in
private and a sheet, towel, or gown is provided for draping. During the massage, the therapist will only undrape the
part of your body being massaged, insuring that your modesty is respected at all times. Your massage will take
place in a comfortable atmosphere and on a cushioned table. You should expect a peaceful and relaxing
experience.
Some massages, such as those on-site at your place of business, a party or health fair, etc., are done while you
are fully clothed. For this type of massage, often called "seated" massage, you will sit in a specifically designed
portable massage chair. Seated massage is a great way to receive a quick 'tune-up' while remaining clothed but
still receiving the benefits of feeling more relaxed and rejuvenated.
