Is Massage Safe For Everyone?Most massage techniques are safe for most people of all ages. With the right touch, massage is safe and a very beneficial health support. However, there are several conditions that a massage would not be recommended. For example, contagious disease, fever, severe pain, or a history of thrombosis. Certain contraindications, such as recent injuries or deep vein thrombosis, will require the massage treatment to be modified. Please fill out the intake form to the best of your ability to inform your therapist of any modifications or concerns that will affect massage treatment. If you suffer from bleeding disorders, severe osteoporosis, or severe thrombocytopenia, please consult with your doctor prior to making a session. Craniosacral therapy is a wonderful alternative for those that cannot receive massage.

What Clothes Should I Wear?If you are seeking therapeutic work for pain or injury, we advise to bring loose fitting shorts and bikini top (halter) for appropriate coverage. Your massage session is tailored to include deep stretches and possibly work on difficult muscles such as the chest muscles or hip muscles. Draping is one less concern we will have with loose, comfortable clothing. If you prefer a relaxation massage with minimal manipulation, you can undress to your comfort level, from wearing socks and underwear, to being completely bare-skinned. It is required to use the sheet to cover your body prior to beginning the massage. Conversation is supported. Please keep the topics professional.
