Your Massage Session – What to Expect

Consultation & Assessment

Every session begins with a brief consultation to understand your health history, current concerns, posture, and muscle tension. This allows us to create a session tailored specifically to your needs and goals.

Targeted Therapy

Using remedial massage, deep tissue techniques, or cupping, we focus on the areas of tension, discomfort, or restriction. Pressure and techniques are adapted to your comfort level, ensuring a therapeutic yet restorative experience.

Relaxation & Recovery

Once key areas are addressed, we guide your body into relaxation. This may include gentle stretching, soothing strokes, or aromatherapy massage to encourage circulation, reduce stress, and leave you feeling lighter and more open.

Recommendations & Next Steps

Before you leave, we provide advice on posture, movement, and self-care strategies to maintain your results and support long-term wellbeing. We may also outline a treatment plan if ongoing sessions are recommended.
