What to expect during your Chair Massage appointment:

If you have general aches and pains, repetitive strain, or just need to relax and relieve stress, a Chair Massage is the right service for you.

Your treatment will begin with a short assessment which may include ROM testing. Your massage therapist will go over your health history and any issues you want to address. You will not be asked to undress.

The modalities your massage therapist may choose to incorporate are; light to deep tissue techniques, kneading, squeezing, pulling of the muscles, acupressure, and more. Your therapist will focus on your shoulders, back, neck, arms, and head. You sit in a massage chair, which is ergonomically designed to provide optimal comfort. Typically, your face rests in the cradle built into the chair. This position allows your back and neck to fully relax, which allows your massage therapist to provide the best treatment possible.These techniques aim to relax your entire body and help you de-stress. They can also help prevent repetitive injuries, such as those caused by typing at a computer all day. Most chair massage sessions are shorter than standard treatments.

If your purpose is solely for relaxation, your therapist will focus on delivering a flowing massage with steady pressure throughout your body. You may be asked to breathe deeply, which can help promote relaxation and increase the effectiveness of the massage. Your therapist may also use aromatherapy or other relaxation techniques to help enhance the experience.

After the massage, you may feel relaxed and rejuvenated. It’s important to drink plenty of water to help flush out any toxins that were released during the massage. Your therapist may also provide you with some aftercare advice, such as remedial exercises, stretching or self-massage techniques to help facilitate your rehabilitation and progress. A return date for your treatment plan will also be suggested to keep you on track.

Other things you should know about your Chair Massage Appointment:

If you’re planning on getting a Chair Massage, here are some important things to keep in mind:

  1. Arrive early: It’s a good idea to arrive a few minutes early to your appointment. This will give you time to fill out any necessary paperwork and get settled in before your treatment begins.
  2. Avoid heavy meals: A full stomach can make it harder for you to relax and may interfere with the treatment. However, an empty stomach can leave you light headed. Try to eat a light meal an hour or two before your appointment.
  3. Drink plenty of water: It’s important to stay hydrated before and after your treatment. Drinking plenty of water can help flush out any toxins released and help prevent soreness.
  4. Dress appropriately: Depending on the type of treatment you have scheduled, you may or may not need to undress to some extent. It’s best to wear loose fitting or “athletic” clothing that you are able to move freely in. Your therapist will instruct you on what should be removed to facilitate the best possible treatment. Always undress to your personal comfort level.
  5. Communicate with your therapist: During your appointment, make sure to keep an open dialogue regarding any discomfort or areas of tension you are experiencing. This will help them make adjustments as needed to ensure that you are getting the most benefit from your treatment.
  6. Take it easy after your appointment: It is important to give your body time to rest and recover after treatment. Avoid intense physical activity or exercise immediately after your treatment and allow your body time to relax and recover.
  7. Follow any post-treatment instructions: Your therapist may provide you with specific instructions or stretches to do after the treatment to help with recovery. It is important to follow these instructions to get the greatest overall benefit.

History of Chair Massage:

The first chair for chair massage was created in 1968 by David Palmer. This first construct of the massage chair weighed 28 pounds. Yet, its design was optimal. It provided stability and safety for the client and the massage therapist. And this chair allowed massage therapists to easily transport their equipment and thus, build their client base.

Since then, chair massage has opened the world of massage therapy to individuals who otherwise may not have ever experienced it before. Today, it’s common for a chair massage to be used in the workplace or at other events.
