What happens during a treatment session At massage therapy sessions in British Columbia, you can expect a professional, client- centred experience designed to promote relaxation, improve mobility, and aid in recovery. Whether you are looking to address a specific injury or just unwind, massage therapy can be an integral part of your health and wellness routine. Here is what to expect in a typical session:

1. Initial Consultation** - Every session begins with a brief consultation to discuss your health history, current symptoms, and any specific concerns. This helps your Registered Massage Therapist (RMT) tailor the session to your needs. Be prepared to answer questions about any recent injuries, chronic conditions, or areas of discomfort. - What to Bring: - Health history form (if needed) - Information about any treatments you’re currently undergoing

2. Setting Up for Your Massage

• Your therapist will explain the session, what areas will be worked on, and how the massage will help address your specific needs. As you may know, treatment works the best if the therapist can work directly on skin, but as this may not be comfortable for all, you can undress and to your level of comfort and lie on a massage table between a set of sheets and a light blanket. When working on the neck and arms/hands it would be best if all jewellery could be removed. Note: Only the area being treated will be undraped, ensuring your privacy and comfort throughout the session. If at any point during the treatment anything does not feel comfortable make sure to mention it to your therapist and they can change the technique or draping to keep you comfortable

1. The Massage Session - Your RMT will begin by warming up the muscles using gentle strokes, gradually applying more pressure as needed to work out any tension, adhesions, or trigger points. Techniques commonly used include: - Swedish Massage: For relaxation and stress relief - Deep Tissue: To target deeper muscle layers for pain relief - Myofascial Release: To reduce tightness in the connective tissue - Sports Massage: For injury prevention and recovery - You may be asked to provide feedback about the pressure or focus areas to ensure you’re comfortable and receiving maximum benefit.

2. Post-Treatment Guidance - After your massage, your therapist will discuss their findings and provide recommendations for self-care. This may include: - - Stretches or exercises to help maintain mobility - - Ice or heat therapy for any lingering soreness - - Suggestions for follow-up treatments

3. Payment & Insurance Coverage - In British Columbia, many extended health plans cover registered massage therapy. Be sure to check with your insurance provider to see if your treatment is eligible. Your RMT will provide a receipt that you can submit for reimbursement.
