If you've never had a remedial massage before, or you're simply trying a new therapist, it's completely normal to have questions about what happens during an appointment.
Our approach is straightforward:
We'll listen. We'll assess. We'll treat. We'll help you understand what's next.

Your appointment begins with a conversation.
We'll discuss what has brought you in, the areas you're concerned about, your lifestyle, work, activities and anything else that may be relevant to your treatment.
You'll also have the opportunity to tell us what you'd like to get from your appointment.
