Why did you become a Massage Therapist
I enjoy being able to care for and comfort those in pain, recovering from injury,
or those suffering from daily stressors. My goal is to aid in quicker healing and
restore overall quality of life.
New Client Information
On your first appointment, there will be a general health form to complete, which
will help inform us about your current state of health. An initial consultation between
you and your therapist will then take place to discuss your session and any concerns
that you might have.
Most massage sessions generally last an hour. We suggest that you allow 1 hour and
15 minutes for each appointment. This allows you 10 minutes before the massage to
check in, fill out any needed health forms, and to meet with your massage therapist.
It also provides you five minutes after the massage to get dressed.
Making you feel extremely comfortable is one of our main goals. You can remove as
much or as little clothing as you are comfortable with. With this explained, the therapist
will leave the room while you undress to your comfort level. Since many massage techniques
involve lubricating the skin with oils and lotions, it is common to be completely
undressed. This isn't a requirement by any means and the therapist will respect your
boundaries. Your privacy will always be respected and you will be covered or draped
with towels or sheets so that only the body part being worked on is exposed at any
given time. To begin, you will lie face down underneath the top sheet. There is a
buzzer on the small table that you can push to let the therapist know you are ready
for your massage.
Massage should be a safe, non-invasive and personal experience where the client is
in control. Respect for the client's boundaries is our first priority. Each individual's
musculature, tolerance to pressure, and joint flexibility are different. It is important
for you to give feedback to the massage therapist so that each session can be tailored
to your individual needs. Conversation with your massage therapist, during a session,
depends on your need to talk. Some clients desire silence. We will try to accommodate
what the client wishes. Relaxing music will be provided. Please feel comfortable giving
feedback to your therapist.
You can workout before a massage but please allow 30 minutes for your body to relax
and get back to normal blood pressure and pulse. Please SHOWER before your massage if you do a workout. Not only for sanitary reasons, but also
our lotion will not allow a smooth glide with certain techniques. Depending on the
type of massage you received and how long it was, you may or may not want to workout
after a massage. The deeper the work and the longer your session, the more time your
body needs for recovery. If you had a long, relaxing session, your body will not feel
like doing anything but relaxing.
Massage oils or lotions will be used whenever there is skin contact. If you have concerns about an allergic reaction please let us know.
Techniques
Techniques to be used may include Swedish, Deep Tissue, Trigger Point, Reflexology,
Joint Range of Motion techniques and stretches. Body parts to be massaged include
the face, neck, shoulders, back, arms, buttocks, hip flexors, legs (front and back),
pectorals, abdominals, ribs, and feet. The massage therapist WILL NOT engage in breast
massage. Genitals are always EXCLUDED. After you leave you may be feeling more relaxed,
free from chronic aches and have new energy. However, occasionally you might feel
lethargic, sore, or even sad. If this happens, affirm your feelings. Inform the therapist
of them so that adjustments to your therapy can be made if necessary. We recommend
that you drink plenty of water after your massage. If you have questions, please don't
hesitate to ask.
Chair Massages
To request a chair massage PLEASE CLICK HERE to learn more about our pricing.
Therapists will come to "your" area of the TTU/TTU HSC Community for on-site chair
(or seated) massage services. Individual chair massages usually last 3-5 minutes to
allow the greatest number of individuals to get a quick dose of rejuvenating therapy
during your event. Please call at least two weeks in advance for chair massages to
be brought to your office or building.
