Who can benefit from regular massage?
Anyone who is looking to manage and reduce pain, improve physical fitness, lower stress, increase immune function and boost mental health and wellness will benefit from a regular massage.
How often should I get a massage?
Frequency of massage is dependent on the reason you are seeking Massage Therapy. If you are coming in for Massage Therapy to reduce pain and increase mobility you may need to schedule several massages in one to accomplish your goal. If you are scheduling a massage for overall wellness you may only need to schedule one every month or two. Your Massage Therapist will help you determine frequency depending on your goals.
How much water should I be drinking?
Generally you should be drinking half your body weight in ounces. If you are thirsty you are already at least 20% dehydrated. Make sure you come to your massage session hydrated. After your massage you may feel dehydrated because your body is using water to flush out toxins. Drinking water after your massage will reduce soreness.
