What to Expect:

If you have never experience a Professional Massage before, you may of course, have some questions. It is perfectly normal to be a little nervous your first time, and it is important that you are comfortable during the session. Here are some commonly expressed concerns:

Modesty  Many people wonder about how much clothing they should remove, and what will be worked during the session. Traditionally Massage is a full-body treatment that is received completely nude, and although many people are comfortable with this, you may not be. You will be draped at all times, and only the area being worked will be uncovered. You are free to leave on what ever you need to in order to feel comfortable, and to specify any part of your body you do not wish to receive work.

Pain  Tense muscles are often sore, and may hurt a little when Massaged. Some discomfort is not unusual, however it should never be so painful that you can't take it. Feel free to tell your therapist if you'd like less pressure, or more. Also a little stiffness or soreness afterwards is quite common.

Talking  Talking is at the discretion of the client. Some people like a little conversation, while others prefer to just "zone."

Gratuities "Am I suppose to tip my therapist?" That is at your personal discretion, however because the therapists only earn a percentage for commission, a $5 or $10 gratuity is quite common if you are happy with your service.

How Often?  We recommend that people try to incorporate some kind of regular program according to what they can realistically do. Because we are talking about your muscles, their response is similar to exercise. As with exercise,  long term improvements are not achieved by running a marathon once a year. Every 2-4 weeks is what we recommend.

Insurance  Absolute Relief currently does not submit claims to Insurance companies. If you have insurance that covers massage (soft tissue manipulations, or Myotherapy) you will be provided with documentation and receipts so your provider may reimburse you.

What NOT to expect...

  We here Absolute Relief are Professional Massage Therapists, NOT ESCORTS!  While it may be true that some individuals or businesses use massage as a front for providing certain adult companionship services, those types of services are unlawful, unprofessional, and not available here. We maintain a zero-tolerance policy regarding  impropriety of any kind.
