Add-on
Beforeyour visit.
Hydrate well. Avoid heavy meals within an hour of your session. Note any new injuries, surgeries, or medication changes at intake.
Communicate your preferred pressure clearly. Your therapist will adjust on each region. Deeper is not always better.
Bring any imaging, PT notes, or movement guidance. Your therapist will work within those parameters.
Afteryour treatment.
Drink water generously. Some areas may feel tender for 24 to 48 hours. This is normal after deep work.
Light movement supports recovery. Avoid intense exercise immediately after if heavy work was done. Heat and a warm bath help.
For chronic pain or postural work: every two to four weeks. For maintenance: every four to six weeks. Series bookings available.
What clients say
Deep Relief, as experienced.
Six years of chronic neck and shoulder pain. Three sessions in over two months and the change is night and day. The combination of deep tissue, cupping, and the infrared mat means I'm in a different state by the time the deeper work starts, which means it actually works.
Frequently asked
Questionsanswered.
As deep as your tissue and tolerance permit, and no deeper. Your therapist will check pressure on each region. The goal is therapeutic release, not endurance. Communicate clearly: pressure that produces sharp pain is counterproductive and tells the muscle to guard rather than release.
Yes. Deep Relief is the primary therapeutic format. For most chronic pain conditions, a series of three to five sessions every two to three weeks produces the best results. For acute injury or post-surgical recovery, please consult with your medical provider first and bring any imaging or guidance to your session.
Yes. Any 60 or 90-minute massage can be extended with a 30-minute Express Reset (Decompressor, Ground + Reset, or Upper Reset) for $120. Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) can be added for $200 for tendon, joint, and soft-tissue conditions. Add-ons are confirmed with your therapist on the day.
Deep Relief targets structural tension, chronic pain, and muscular work. Lymphatic Flow + Detox targets fluid retention, post-surgical recovery, and systemic detoxification. They serve different goals. Your therapist can advise if you're unsure. Many clients alternate between them.
Deep Relief is not the right format during pregnancy. Book Prenatal + Postnatal Massage instead. It uses positioning and pressure protocols specifically calibrated to pregnancy and postnatal recovery.
