List any past surgeries, broken bones, or current injuries. Do not hide old trauma. The therapist needs this to work around sensitive areas. For example, working near a recent hip replacement requires different pressure and positioning. Hiding history can worsen your condition or cause unnecessary pain.
One session is rarely enough for chronic issues. For ongoing pain, book every 2 to 4 weeks. This prevents muscles from tightening again. For occasional stress, monthly sessions work well. Consistency yields better long-term results. Wait too long between appointments and you lose progress. Build a sustainable routine.
For in-home visits, you need clear floor space. Measure the area to fit a portable table. Usually, 2 meters by 2 meters is enough. Ensure good lighting and ventilation. You may need to bring your own heating element if the room is cold.
Decide if you need deep tissue for muscle knots or Swedish for relaxation. Deep tissue uses slower, firmer movements to reach fascia layers. Swedish uses lighter, gliding strokes to boost circulation. Tell the therapist your primary goal. This ensures they select the right techniques rather than guessing your needs.
Deep tissue work can be uncomfortable. It should not feel like sharp pain. If it hurts sharply, tell the therapist immediately. They will adjust pressure. Muscle soreness for 1 to 2 days after is normal. This indicates the tissue is adapting. If pain persists beyond 3 days, contact them right away for guidance.
Drink water before and after your massage. Massage moves metabolic waste out of muscle tissue. Your kidneys need fluid to flush these toxins. Staying hydrated reduces post-session soreness. Aim for half a liter of water within 2 hours of finishing.
Speak up if a position hurts. Do not endure pain hoping it will pass. Therapists cannot feel your internal tension levels. Use simple words like stop or softer. Clear feedback improves every subsequent session and prevents injury.
Wear loose, comfortable clothes that are easy to remove. You will be undressed to your comfort level. Sheets and towels cover you. For deep tissue, wear shorts and a tank top. For full body, wear minimal clothing. You can keep your underwear on if you prefer. This saves time and reduces awkwardness.
Standard sessions last 60 or 90 minutes. Shorter visits may not allow enough time for full-body work. If you have chronic pain, choose 90 minutes. This allows time for mobilization and relaxation phases. Ask what is included in that time block before booking.
One session rarely cures chronic back pain. Plan for 4 to 6 weeks of regular visits. Consistency helps reduce muscle tension over time. Discuss a maintenance schedule with your therapist. Monthly sessions may suffice if your pain is mild and stable.
