Imagine a massage tailored just for you, designed to address your specific needs and concerns. That's the essence of therapeutic massage. At Deep Breath Lounge, we specialize in personalized treatments to help you achieve your wellness goals.
What is Therapeutic Massage?
Therapeutic massage isn't just a massage; it's a massage with a purpose. It encompasses a wide range of techniques, all aimed at addressing specific issues or concerns. At Deep Breath Lounge, when we say "therapeutic," we mean anything beyond the classic relaxation massage.
Should I Ask for a Therapeutic Massage? Who is it Good For?
If you have a specific concern like acute or chronic pain, sensitivity, or tension, then a therapeutic massage is a fantastic choice. Your therapist will take the time to ask you detailed questions to understand the best approach for your unique needs.
However, if you're simply looking to unwind and relax, a classic relaxation massage is the way to go. Regardless of which style of massage you choose we will discuss your preferred pressure and boundaries during the session.
Do You Have Any Medical Concerns?
If you have any medical conditions that could complicate the massage, whether they affect your entire body or specific areas, therapeutic massage is a wise option, especially for your first session. This allows us to have a thorough discussion about how massage can impact you and your condition. It's crucial for both you and the therapist to have a clear understanding before proceeding with any treatment plan.
What Should I Expect in a Therapeutic Massage?
Therapeutic massage involves a higher level of communication and discussion compared to a classic massage. This dialogue occurs before, during, and after your session.
Additionally, a treatment plan may be established, covering expectations, future sessions, and self-care practices.
It's important to note that, depending on your specific needs, therapeutic massage may not always be deeply relaxing. For some, it might involve moments of discomfort or even slight pain. Rest assured, our skilled therapists always aim to keep you comfortable, but occasional discomfort is a natural part of the process.
Understanding therapeutic massage can sometimes feel complex, but it doesn't have to. If you'd like a clearer picture of what a therapeutic massage entails for you personally, don't hesitate to book a free consultation call with us. We're here to guide you towards the perfect treatment for your unique wellness journey.
