What should I wear to the massage appointment?

Comfortable clothing is recommended, however therapeutic massage is typically performed with the client unclothed. You will be appropriately draped at all times. Most people undress completely, while some leave some clothing on such as underwear. You decide what level of comfort is right for you. Your privacy is respected at all times.
What will the massage feel like?

It depends on the techniques used. Your massage session may start with broad flowing strokes to begin the relaxation process. Pressure will be gradually increased to relax specific areas and release tight muscle bands. Deep tissue massage will require deeper pressure and more intensive techniques. It is important that the pressure always be within your comfort level. Should you wish to receive less or more pressure at anytime, tell your therapist.
Will you be sore as a result of the massage?

Occasionally, some people may be sore/tender in places the next day, depending on the type of massage and degree of pressure they received. It is important to communicate with your therapist if the pressure is uncomfortable at any time. Drinking additional fluids following your massage may reduce these symptoms. These symptoms will usually subside by the following day.
