(First-Time Clients Only)
When your body feels stuck, this is where you start.
This guided first session is designed to help your body feel lighter, clearer, and easier to move — without guessing what to book.
You’ll have time before and after the hands-on work so the session can be shaped around how your body is holding tension and what it needs most right now.
The work is intentional, supportive, and results-focused — using heat and guided techniques to help your body soften, release, and move more comfortably.
⸻
This work is for you if:
• your body feels tight more often than it feels relaxed
• you’re used to holding, bracing, or pushing through discomfort
• you’ve tried massage before but didn’t feel lasting change
• you’re active, high-stress, or spend long hours in one position
• you want your body to feel different — not just temporarily better
⸻
Most clients leave feeling:
• lighter and less compressed
• more comfortable using their body
• reduced pain or tension in key areas
• calmer, grounded, and physically reset
⸻
Important notes:
• Not suitable for prenatal or lymphatic drainage clients
• If you don’t feel a noticeable change after your first session, your next visit is complimentary
• All bookings are non-refundable

First Time Client Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about your initial First Time Client session.
Your session begins with a short intake to discuss history, concerns, and goals. The therapist performs an assessment, then uses targeted massage, soft tissue work, and mobility techniques to reduce pain and create a personalized plan for ongoing care and follow-up.
Most initial appointments last 60 minutes, allowing time for intake, assessment, and focused treatment. Extended 90-minute options are available for more complex concerns or thorough full-body work — ask when booking to reserve a longer session.
You undress to your comfort level; therapists are trained to drape professionally, exposing only the area being worked on. If you prefer to keep certain clothing on or have modesty concerns, tell us — we’ll adapt techniques to ensure your comfort.
