01Before Your Massage
- Hydrate well before your scheduled appointment.
- Eat a light meal or snack beforehand, avoiding heavy meals right before treatment.
- Communicate any current areas of tension, injuries, or health updates with your therapist.
02Post-Treatment Care
- Prioritize HydrationDrink plenty of water throughout the remainder of the day to support your body's natural recovery process and muscle hydration.
- Practice Gentle MovementIncorporate light movement, gentle stretching, and deep breathing. Avoid over-stretching or engaging in strenuous workouts immediately following your session.
- Treat Soreness Like Workout RecoveryFollowing deeper bodywork, rest is key. Soak in an Epsom salt bath (or even a warm foot soak) to melt away lingering aches. Standard over-the-counter pain medication may be used as appropriate.
- Mindful Daily AlignmentPay attention to daily habits between appointments—such as pillow support while sleeping or supportive footwear—that impact your posture and alignment.
Note: Individual aftercare needs vary. Your therapist may provide personalized instructions, specific home stretches, or custom alignment tips tailored to your session.
