Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Medical Massage - 90 Mins.

Medical Massage - 90 Mins addresses prescribed conditions such as post-surgical recovery, sports injuries, chronic pain, lymphedema, and soft-tissue pathologies. Treatments focus on circulation, lymphatic drainage, and tissue repair under clinical guidance to support functional recovery and symptom reduction.

Arrive hydrated and with a brief medical history or referral if provided. Avoid heavy meals and alcohol beforehand, wear comfortable clothing, and communicate medications, recent surgeries, or concerns with your therapist so treatment can be tailored safely to your needs.

Some deep techniques may feel intense, but we prioritize client comfort and clinical objectives. Therapists adjust pressure and methods during the session; communicate pain levels immediately. Short-term soreness can occur as tissues respond, normally subsiding within one to three days.

Frequency depends on diagnosis and response; many clients begin with weekly 90-minute sessions for several weeks, then transition to maintenance intervals. We collaborate with your provider to create a measurable plan, adjusting frequency based on progress and symptom improvement.

Coverage varies by insurer and diagnosis; some policies reimburse medical massage with a physician referral and appropriate billing codes. We provide documentation, receipts, and CPT codes when available, and can help guide you through insurance inquiries.

Contraindications include acute infections, fever, deep vein thrombosis, uncontrolled hypertension, recent fractures, or certain skin conditions. Prioritize a health screening; therapists will consult your physician when needed and modify or postpone treatment to ensure safety.
