WHAT TO EXPECT AT YOUR APPOINTMENT

First time having a massage? Wondering what an appointment at Mantra Massage entails? To help you feel at ease, here is an outline of our process and answers to commonly asked questions. Your comfort is our top priority!

ARRIVAL

Welcome to Mantra Massage! Our friendly team will be ready to greet you and answer any questions you may have.
 

Sip some cucumber water, put on some cozy slippers, and take a minute to relax before your therapist comes to get you. 
 

If it is your first appointment with us, you may be asked to fill out some forms. Any information you provide is used to ensure treatment is tailored to best suited to your needs.

TREATMENT

What do I wear? 
Loose-fitting clothing that is easy to slip on and off is best. You will never be asked to undress beyond your comfort level.

Your therapist will introduce themselves and give you time in your therapy room to privately get situated on the massage table.  


Will it be painful? 
Massages shouldn't hurt, but they won't always be comfortable. We are here to help your body heal and relax by reducing tension and increasing blood flow. In order to do this, deeper pressure may be applied. If you are uncomfortable, need a break, or would like less/more pressure, your therapist will adjust your session accordingly.

You should leave feeling listened to and respected!


Do I have to talk? Can I talk if I want? 
We're always interested in what our clients have to say! Tell us about your weekend, your interests, what you do for a living... Or don't! If you'd rather listen only to the treatment room's music and zone out, you absolutely can. 

POST-TREATMENT

After your treatment has finished, your therapist will again provide you with privacy and meet you when you're ready back at reception. Here, you are able to discuss post-treatment care as well as any questions or comments you may have.


After a massage therapy session, it is recommended to drink plenty of fluids and take a warm shower. Any additional suggestions will be made by your therapist depending on your unique needs. You may feel slightly sore for a few days after treatment, especially if this is your first one. 


We will direct bill to your insurance provider, if requested, and help you book in for your next appointment. You are also welcome to wait and book yourself online or with us over the phone. 


Finally, we love feedback. After your session, you will be given a link to our feedback form. We would appreciate if you took time to complete it.
