• Medical massage
• Neuromuscular treatment

Each of these massages can take place over the course of 60 or 90 minutes with the exception of the lymphatic drainage massage. For this treatment, patients can choose between a 30-, 60-, or 90-minute session.

After your massage is over, you might have some soreness in various areas, but the sensation may be similar to finishing a strenuous but refreshing activity. It could be most helpful to drink water instead of a caffeinated or alcoholic beverage after the massage so your body can most efficiently flush out the toxins that have been loosened up by the massage. You may also want to stay moderately active in the first 48 hours following the massage to encourage your muscles to stay loose. After 48 hours, your body should be back to normal but more relaxed and less tense than before your massage.

How much does massage therapy cost?
The exact cost of your massage may vary depending on the type and length of your treatment. Prior to your massage, our team will talk with you about which treatment may be ideal for you. We will also talk with you about any expected costs.

How often can I receive a massage?
Typically, massages are recommended around every 4 – 6 weeks to see the best long-term results. If more frequent massages may be beneficial, our team will let you know and help create a therapy plan that is ideal for your needs. We may also recommend that you try out different massage techniques, depending on your current condition.

How can I prepare for my massage?
Prior to your massage, it is important to drink plenty of water. You may also want to avoid strenuous activity before and after your massage. Any additional instructions can be provided by our team at Integrative Pain and Wellness Center.

What is the difference between a massage therapist and a physical therapist?
While both massage therapists and physical therapists work with the body to promote healing, they have different focuses. Physical therapists use a broader range of techniques to rehabilitate after injury or surgery, improve mobility, and relieve pain. Massage therapists specialize in manipulating the body's soft tissues to relieve tension, reduce pain, and promote relaxation.

Can I receive massage therapy if I’m pregnant?
Yes, a prenatal or pregnancy massage can be very beneficial for many pregnant women, helping with relaxation and easing some common discomforts of pregnancy. However, it's essential to check with the team at Integrative Pain and Wellness Center to make sure you are a good candidate for this type of massage.

The wonderful thing about massage therapy is that it's often beneficial for the majority of people.
