What to Expect at Your First Massage Therapy Appointment
Your first visit begins with a health history intake and a brief assessment so your therapist understands what's going on and what you're hoping to address. From there, treatment is tailored to your needs including the techniques used, the areas focused on, and the pressure applied are all adjusted based on what's appropriate for you.
Please note: New patients require an initial assessment. If it has been more than six months since your last visit, a re-assessment is required before treatment continues.
