A: Massage has numerous benefits including decreasing muscle tension and pain, increasing range of motion, decreasing cortisol levels, and increasing serotonin and dopamine levels to relieve stress. Fascial stretch therapy will decrease pain, increase flexibility and range of motion, mobility, posture, balance, coordination, power, and strength. People of all ages benefit from this treatment. Lymphatic drainage helps to stimulate your immune system and will provide relief from inflammation such as allergies, acne, or eczema (subacute or chronic stage). It helps in the reduction of edema (swelling), aids in detoxification, promotes deep relaxation, and causes tissue regeneration (scars, burns) and anti-aging effects. Most importantly you will also be able to relax in the comfort of your own home after your session!
Q: HOW OFTEN SHOULD I BOOK A TREATMENT?
A: If we are working on a specific concern or area, a treatment plan will be created with the client and timing will vary depending the concerns. For massage maintenance, we recommend every 4 weeks.
Q: WHAT FORMS OF PAYMENT DO YOU ACCEPT?
A: We accept email money transfers, Cash, Debit, VISA, Mastercard, and American Express.
Q: CAN I USE MY HEALTHCARE BENEFITS FOR MOBILE MASSAGE?
A: Yes. We recommend you inquire with your insurance provider on exactly what they cover. Most insurance plans cover massage therapy, whether a percentage or certain dollar amount. You can pay the difference using any of the above payment forms you prefer. You will be emailed an itemized receipt after your treatment that you can submit to your insurance provider for reimbursement.
Q: HOW MUCH ROOM DO YOU REQUIRE?
A: The standard massage table is 73 inches long and 28 inches wide. We require enough room to move around the table and bring you into stretches, so a good rule of thumb is the size of the table plus 3-4 feet around the table.
Q: WHAT AREAS OF MY BODY WILL BE MASSAGED?
A: This depends on what kind of massage you are getting (full body or specific areas). You will be covered at all times with a sheet and only the area we are treating will be undraped.
Q: DO I HAVE TO REMOVE MY CLOTHES?
A: We want you to be comfortable, so the decision is yours. For a traditional massage the person will undress and lie on the table under the sheet, and the area we are working on will be undraped. You will change in complete privacy. Fascial Stretch Therapy is performed fully clothed. Please wear athletic clothing that allows a lot of movement, such as yoga pants and a tee-shirt. For our other modalities, we can chat when you book and advise you on how to prepare.
