  • What types of techniques do you use?

Other techniques used by our therapists include Trigger Point Therapy, Reflexology, Myofascial Release, Cranio-Sacral, Deep Tissue, Shiatsu, and Chair Massage. For an explanation of what all these terms mean, see http://www.amtamassage.org/about/terms.html.
  • What can I expect at my first appointment?
  • A warm and friendly welcome! Your "Healthful Touch" therapist will meet with you to discuss your treatment with you and you will be asked to fill out a short medical information form. You will have an opportunity to ask as many questions as you want before your session. Your massage will be conducted in a comfortable, private room with your choice of soothing music or ambient sound. Most standard massage sessions last one hour. Basically, it will be a wonderul, quiet, relaxing time to heal and take a break from your hectic day!
  • Must I disrobe completely?
  • You may do whatever is comfortable for you. A massage is most effective if most the client's clothing is removed because this allows the therapist to be in direct contact with skin and makes tissue and muscle manipulation much easier. The client is covered by a sheet at all times, ensuring privacy. If you are not comfortable removing your clothing, other techniques can be used, such as Chair Massage, Reflexology (for the feet), Shiatsu (face and head), and Trigger Point Therapy done through the clothing. The most important thing is that you feel comfortable and we will customize your session to make sure that happens.
  • Will I experience any discomfort?
  • That depends on your treatment plan. A massage is typically a very soothing and tranquil experience. Occassionally, if your therapist needs to work out a troubled area of your body to help the healing process, you may experience brief moments of discomfort or pain, but afterward you will feel a lot better! Your therapist will meet with you to clearly outline the nature of the treatment before the session begins, and together you will decide on a treatment plan that best meets your needs.
  • How will I feel afterwards?
  • Great! After a massage, most people feel refreshed, relaxed, and at peace. A massage can reduce pain, tension and stress. You should drink plenty of water following a massage in order to help expunge the toxins that may be released in your body following a massage and be sure to stay alert if you are driving home.
