How many treatments do I need?

​It depends…generally speaking if it’s a disruption to a structure with poor blood supply (think discs, ligaments, tendons) then recovery can take 3-6 months, but if it’s an acute muscles spasm or joint lock, you can expect to get some relief in 2-3 treatments.
I like to treat all new conditions at least 3 times. Sessions usually look like this:
  • First session : focuses on understanding your health history, completing  a thorough assessment, working with you on a treatment plan specific to your needs, and treatment
  • Second session: focuses on treatment
  • Third session: evaluate your progress, reassessment, and further treatment

If I am not seeing changes in 3 sessions I will re-consider the treatment plan. Your wellness is more important to me than your money so if that means referring to another practitioner I trust, I will always be open to that. 

We have many clients who include regular massage as part of their self care.  It could be to reduce stress, manage a spinal fusion, or just keep their bodies in the best shape possible for physically demanding jobs. Find out more about what we offer here.
