Frequently Asked Questions About Massage Therapy

A “knot”, also known as an adhesion, is a group of individual muscle fibers that are stuck in contraction.

Prenatal massage is a safe option to relieve many common discomforts experienced during pregnancy such as muscle and joint pain, headaches, loss of sleep, erratic hormone levels, stress and anxiety, sciatic nerve compression, and low back or hip pain. Gentle strokes promote movement of lymphatic fluid and increase blood flow to alleviate swelling in the extremities and improve fatigue. Modifications are made as your pregnancy progresses to ensure the wellbeing of you and baby. If your pregnancy is high-risk, speak to your OBGYN or midwife to get clearance before receiving prenatal treatment. To learn more about prenatal massage CLICK HERE.

Sports massage is a targeted and methodical approach aimed at the muscles crucial for a particular sport. Utilizing a range of techniques, it aims to alleviate muscle discomfort, hasten recovery, and enhance overall range of motion and flexibility, thereby promoting safe and efficient movement directly before or after competition. Sports massage can incorporate deep tissue techniques, but traditionally sports massages are not necessarily deep. If you are looking for a deeper massage, a therapeutic massage may be more beneficial.

Our massage therapists often suggest having a massage every 4-6 weeks for general wellness. If you are experiencing a new or acute complaint, your therapist may suggest you to come in more frequently for a a period of time until the issue is resolved, after which you can go back to maintenance care.
