NOTE: This massage option is specifically for our younger clients, those 17 and under. Written parental consent is required at or before first appointment. Please be sure to accompany your child/teen inside to their first appointment so that we can make sure he/she is comfortable and that we are able to review any medical concerns before we get started. This is a slightly shorter session at 45 minutes so that we can get you and your child on your way in under an hour.
Therapeutic massage can assist in keeping your karate, football, baseball, dance, gymnastics, lacrosse, soccer, and/or track star in the game and off the side lines.In pursuit of being their personal best, sometimes kids overexert themselves.This type of massage is more closely related to sports massage which helps in maintaining healthy muscle function, aids in recovery after injury, and minimizes or can even prevent scar tissue from forming.
Relaxation massage:Stress affects children and teens just as much as adults --disrupting their sleep, eating habits, moods, ability focus on their work, and making them more susceptible to illness.Relaxation massage for children and teens gives them a healthy coping strategy and, therefore, can make a huge difference in helping them keep a positive perspective on the challenges they face.
Each session is tailored to the specific needs of the client that day.Therefore, it is not necessary to specify relaxation or therapeutic at the time you make the appointment.
