the Price of a Deep Tissue Massage

This was a deep tissue massage, for one hour, in the therapists home clinic. The therapist had an intake session at the beginning of the massage that included paperwork and a discussion of what my goals were for the session. After, I was offered water, and we discussed how I was feeling, if we'd accomplished the pain relief I was after and instructions for the coming days.

The service was outstanding. The home clinic was very professional, and very relaxing. The massage was magnificent, and offered relaxation, as well as the benefits of deep tissue work. I was comfortable speaking with the therapist and I was comfortable with the therapy room in her home. I felt she listened to my needs and worked to make me comfortable and lessen my pain. She was very knowledgeable.

Look for therapists that are part of national organizations. Also find a therapist that you are comfortable speaking with, and that makes you feel at ease. Approach it as you would finding a doctor, although their services are different. Be sure that you can be open and honest with your therapist, and that they are professional and listen to your needs. If possible, discuss the training and education the therapist has received, and whether or not they have referrals.
