Whether you’re new to massage therapy or have had massages before, a medical massage is a little different—it’s all about healing with purpose.
Here’s what you can expect at your appointment:
Personalized Assessment
Your session begins with a brief consultation. Your therapist will review your symptoms, medical history, and any treatment notes from our doctors or other providers. We’ll talk about what’s bothering you—whether it’s chronic pain, tension, a recent injury, or postural issues.
Goal-Focused Treatment
Unlike a spa massage, this isn’t a one-size-fits-all session. Your therapist will use targeted techniques to treat specific muscles, trigger points, or areas contributing to your discomfort. This may include:
Stretching and movement work
The goal is to relieve pain, improve function, and support your overall treatment plan—not just help you relax (although that’s a nice bonus).
Constant Communication
Your comfort is key. Your therapist will check in with you during the session to adjust pressure or techniques based on your feedback. We’ll always explain what we’re doing and why, so you feel informed and cared for.
Post Treatment Guidance
After your session, we may recommend stretches, exercises, or follow-up care to keep your progress going. You might feel a bit sore the next day—that’s normal—but you’ll likely notice increased mobility and reduced tension.
Think of medical massage as hands-on therapy, not just relaxation. It’s an important part of your healing journey—working with your body, not against it.
