Evaluation

At your initial session, your massage therapist will first ask questions about your health and what symptoms you are experiencing in order to determine how to best treat you with massage therapy. Please be sure to inform your massage therapist of any health problems that you are experiencing or medications you are currently taking. He or she also will discuss which parts of your body you would like to receive massage.
