Initial Assessment and Therapeutic Massage

Description
Initial Assessment & Treatment (New Clients / Complex Conditions) Recommended for new clients and anyone presenting with a specific injury, acute pain, or complex movement restrictions. This appointment includes 15 minutes for functional assessment and health history review so we can better understand what you're experiencing and plan the treatment accordingly. My treatments are generally slow and thorough, with pressure adjusted to your preference. Depending on what you need that day, I may incorporate deeper work, sustained pressure, gentle stretching or movement alongside more traditional massage techniques. Whether you’re dealing with tight shoulders, an achy back, sore muscles or general tension, we’ll focus on the areas that need attention while still giving you a massage you can settle into and enjoy. You'll leave with a better understanding of what’s going on, what you can do to address contributing factors, and a realistic plan to help you moving forward.
