Stress in your life:
Today stress is a fact of life, and the workplace is no exception.  The effects of stress are cumulative and without time to relax and recharge, can lead to headaches, backaches, eyestrain, neck pain, repetitive use injuries such as tendonitis or carpal tunnel syndrome.  Stress can cause listlessness, poor concentration, anxiety, depression, irritability, or anger.  It can cause lowered resistance to colds and infections, as well as physical and emotional exhaustion known as “burn out.”

 Recent studies show that:
 Up to 90% of all visits to primary care physicians are for stress-related complaints.  Over 50% of lost work days are stress-related.  14% of workers say stress caused them to quit or change jobs in the previous two years.

 What to expect from your first appointment:
 You should come to your first appointment ahead of your scheduled time in order to fill out a required Confidential Client information form.  It is important for you therapist to be fully aware of any of your medical concerns to assure proper treatment and safety .  Some medical conditions may require a physician’s written permission for you  to have any massage (chair or full body.)  You may discuss any conditions or concerns with the therapist when you schedule your appointment. You will be instructed how to sit in the specially designed massage chair and adjustments will be made to ensure your comfort. There is no need to undress however, you may want to remove your jewelry from your hands and arms.

 What to expect from the massage?
 The therapist will massage your shoulders, back, lower back, neck, arms and hands with special attention to any stressed areas.  A light cream is used on your arm and hands.

 How will I feel after the massage?
 After the massage, most people feel very relaxed and refreshed.
