When deciding to get a massage, there are many different types of massages that you can get. The most common is the Swedish massage that is a whole-body therapeutic massage that is designed to help relax your muscles and joints. You could also choose a specialty massage, like sports or prenatal massages. Other types include deep tissue, hot stone, reflexology, lymphatic, and craniofacial release. If you’re still unsure on what you need, you can just tell us your needs and what you would like to improve and we can give you our recommendations!
Normally, a massage would not cause any pain but it is always best to communicate any uncomfortable pain or pressure with the therapist. If too much pressure is being applied to an area you should tell your therapist. Massages should always leave you feeling relaxed and relieved.
Getting a massage once every week or two is a good frequency to keep your muscle tissues soft, and feeling great. Frequently getting a massage can benefit your physical and mental health. It is suggested that individuals that are experiencing chronic pain should not get a massage frequently. Talk with your massage therapist and ask their recommendations on how often you should get a massage.
