Your therapist will consult about history and goals, then combine techniques like Swedish, deep tissue, myofascial release, trigger-point work, and assisted stretches. The extended time supports focused attention and gradual pressure, balancing therapeutic results with relaxation.

We recommend our extended session to allow careful, unrushed work—usually 90 to 120 minutes depending on needs. Longer appointments let therapists address multiple problem areas deeply while still promoting overall relaxation and recovery.

Yes—when adapted to your condition. Therapists will assess symptoms and use gentler modalities or deeper work as appropriate, focusing on trigger-point release and myofascial techniques. Always disclose medical history; we may request clearance from your physician for certain diagnoses.

Mild soreness or tenderness can occur after deeper work, typically resolving within 24–48 hours. Hydrate, rest, and apply gentle stretching or heat. Communicate pressure preferences during your session to reduce post-treatment discomfort and ensure a comfortable recovery.

Arrive hydrated, avoid heavy meals, and wear comfortable clothing. Complete the intake form and share medical history and current concerns. Avoid vigorous exercise immediately before. Arriving early helps you relax and gives the therapist time for a thorough consultation.

Absolutely. Therapists welcome input—tell us if you prefer lighter touch, deep pressure, focus areas, or specific modalities. We adapt the session throughout based on feedback to ensure effectiveness, comfort, and alignment with your therapeutic goals.
