Frequently Asked Questions
Got questions? Ease your mind by reading answers to common concerns. Setting the right expectations can prepare you to make the most of your healing journey.
Is it normal to feel sore after a massage, and why does this happen?
Yes. Soreness is common as the muscles are stretched and toxins are released. It usually fades within a day or two.
Can massage therapy boost my immune system?
Yes. Regular massage can enhance immune function by reducing stress and increasing white blood cell activity.
How often should I get a massage?
For general wellness, once a month is ideal. For specific issues or pain relief, consider more frequent sessions.
Can massage therapy improve my sleep quality?
Yes. Massage reduces stress and promotes relaxation, often leading to deeper, more restful sleep.
