What should I expect?
The depth of massage desired is something that your massage therapist will discuss with you. Some patients request a gentle, light pressure that is soothing while others request a deeper massage for the therapeutic value. Pain is not necessary during your massage. Our registered massage therapists will make sure the pressure of your massage suits your needs.
