Tips for Relaxation and to get the Most out of your Massage

Clients Communication and Comfort
The client plays a huge role in the healing process. Remember this is your time to relax, so please do. Sometimes a natural reaction during massage is to clinch the area that is receiving the massage. It is best to try to release that clinch and relax the area as much as possible. Breathe out the "good pain". I encourage you to let me know if the pressure is too deep or if more is needed.

Taking Care of Yourself
During massage, remember to relax and breathe! Massage can stimulate your body and mind. You may have a general feeling of looseness in your body or you may feel emotionally serene. Massage can stimulate your body's natural cleansing process releasing toxins. Therefore, you may experience a slight headache for a short time following your session. It is extremely important to drink that you drink 2-3 glasses of water following your massage.

*A series of massages can help heal you more completely, leaving you less prone to reinjury.

*Frequency of sessions will depend on the cause of your discomfort and your response to massage. People often receive massage sessions more frequent in the beginning to help relieve the painful culprit.

*For the future, consider scheduling an appointment at the earliest signs of discomfort to interrupt the cycle of tension and pain before it becomes a problem
