Massage Anxiety?

You know and value the importance of receiving routine massage therapy and bodywork… but do you experience nervousness at the thought of receiving a massage?

Here are four helpful tips if you are someone who has anxiety or is nervous about receiving massage therapy. 

1) Get the Details

If you know what to expect, you will feel more confident in receiving your treatment.

Know your goal of why you want to receive a massage, get a referral or read online reviews about your Massage Therapist and his or her place of business, and plan your commute.

These three small steps will immediately eradicate a significant amount of stress and nervousness.

2) Express Your Concerns

Don’t be afraid to ask questions.

Your Massage Therapist is there to address your specific issues and help you to feel better. The more you voice about how you desire your treatment to go, the better your Massage Therapist can serve you.

3) Know Your Options

There is an abundance of bodywork modalities. If you are clear on your treatment goals, then you can find a Massage Therapist who specializes in your exact needs.

For example, if you are seeking a massage to help with stress and anxiety, a Sports Massage might not be the ideal treatment for you.

4) Find a Massage Therapist You Trust

Just as you wouldn’t trust your finances with an accountant whom you didn’t feel comfortable with, your Massage Therapist is no different.

When you find a Massage Therapist that you trust, you will be able to relax and feel that your needs were met. Your Therapist should respect your boundaries and never put you in a situation where you feel uncomfortable.

At Denver Deep, we focus on you. For the length of your treatment, you become our only priority, and we work to serve your specific needs. We understand how important boundaries are with our clients, and we strive to meet every person exactly where he or she is.
