Many people may request more time for deeper work when they are feeling discomfort due to overused muscles, migraine headaches, or stress related injuries. Make yourself comfortable. Many people just close their eyes and completely relax. Others like to talk during their massage session. Feel free to ask the massage therapists questions about the massage in general or about any particular technique you are receiving.
Most people feel very relaxed.
Some experience freedom from long-term aches and pains developed from tension or repetitive activity. After an initial period of feeling slowed down, people often experience increased energy, heightened awareness, and greater productivity which can last for days. Massage or upper bodywork can help release chronic muscular tension and pain, improve circulation, increase joint flexibility, reduce mental and physical fatigue and stress, promote faster healing of injured muscular tissue, improve posture, reduce blood pressure, and counter balance travel fatigue. Before you begin your session, the massage therapist will ask you a few general questions. It is very important that you inform the practitioner of any health problems.
