What is a Massage Session?
Prior to a session, the client will fill out a medical intake form. The massage session is performed on a comfortable massage table in a private room. The client disrobes in private, to their level of comfort, and covers with a sheet before the therapist enters the room. The client remains draped throughout the session except for the area being worked on. It is the responsibility of the client to communicate with the therapist, to insure an enjoyable and beneficial session. Massage can also be performed effectively with the client fully dressed. Massage releases the toxins from the muscles of the body. Please remember to drink water to flush the toxins out of your body.

The Benefits of Massage
Massage can help release chronic muscular tension and pain, improve circulation, increase muscular and joint flexibility, reduce mental and physical fatigue, promote faster healing, reduce or prevent adhesions of injured muscular tissue, improve posture, reduce frequency and intensity of headaches, and release stored cellular toxins. Massage is also known to promote better sleep, improve concentration, reduce anxiety and create an overall sense of well-being. In addition, massage is among the most effective means available to combat stress. Whatever your massage need, our services are provided by North Carolina Licensed Massage and Bodywork Therapist.
