No mystery, no awkwardness.
Most people who have never had clinical bodywork hesitate because nobody tells them what actually happens. So here is the whole thing.
We talk first
A few minutes on what hurts, when it started, what makes it worse, and what you need to get back to doing. You stay dressed for this part.
Then we work
Hands-on treatment for the rest of the session, at a pressure you set. You are draped throughout, and you can change your mind about anything at any point.
You leave with a plan
What was found, what to do between now and next time, and an honest answer on whether you need to come back at all.
Practical things
Parking, entrance directions and Google Maps
Arrive 5–10 minutes early for a first visit so the paperwork does not eat into your table time.
Wear whatever is comfortable. You will be draped throughout and only the area being worked on is uncovered. Stretch and corrective exercise sessions are done fully clothed, so bring something you can move in.
Say if anything is wrong. Pressure, temperature, the music, a spot you would rather was left alone. None of it is awkward and all of it makes the session better.
Mention injuries and conditions when you book and again at the start. Some change how the work is done, and a few mean it should wait or be cleared with your doctor first.
Before you book.
What does a session cost?
Sixty minutes is $95 and ninety minutes is $130. That is the whole price — there is no add-on menu, and nothing is sold to you partway through the session.
Which length should I book?
Book sixty if you can point at the problem. Book ninety if it is more than one area, if it is full-body, or if the pain moves around. If you book the wrong one it gets sorted out in the room, not held against you.
Is this a spa massage?
No. It is treatment-focused bodywork aimed at a specific problem. It can absolutely be relaxing, but the session is built around what is restricting you rather than around an hour of ambience.
Does deep tissue have to hurt?
No, and pressure that has you tensing up works against the session — a muscle bracing against you is a muscle that is not releasing. You set the pressure and it is adjusted whenever you say so.
What if I have an injury or a medical condition?
Mention it when you book and again at the start of the session. Some conditions change how the work is done, and a few mean it should wait or be cleared with your doctor first. Massage is bodywork, not a medical diagnosis — if something is getting worse, follows an injury you have not had looked at, or comes with numbness, weakness or pain that wakes you at night, see a doctor first.
Can I ask for a particular technique?
Yes, and it is genuinely helpful. Most people book Therapeutic and let the session find its own way, which works — but if you already know that slow fascial work is what your body responds to, or that you want assisted stretching in there, say so when you book or at the start of the session. That is why myofascial unwinding is on the menu by name rather than hidden inside a general session.
Do you do cupping or scraping?
Not yet, and that is a “not yet” rather than a no. The cups are here; Randi is completing the short certification her insurer asks for before it goes on the menu. If cupping is the reason you were thinking of booking, mention it and she will tell you exactly where that has got to.
How do I book?
Online at any hour, or by phone on (480) 944-0494 during opening hours. Online is usually quicker because you can see live availability.
