Articles all over the internet and in many medical magazines tout the health benefits of massage therapy. Almost every kind of medical professional can attribute some of their patients’ success to supplementing their treatment with holistic healing techniques like massages; even surgeons sometimes suggest it to anxious patients for upcoming surgeries. But where should you book a massage – and what should you know before you go?
There’s More than One Place to Get a Massage
Massage parlors aren’t the only place to get a total body workover, these days. Medical spas like Milwaukee-based Total Body Laser & Med Spa offer all manner of services designed to keep the skin and the body looking and feeling its best. From medical skin rejuvenation to facials and chemical peels, there is nothing these professionals can’t do to help you turn back the clock and turn up the attention you get for your beautiful, radiant skin.
Massages at medical spas often focus on more than just rubbing out the stiffness and soreness in your muscles. They also use cutting-edge medical techniques to bring back the flexibility and vitality of your body, while caring for the skin that covers those muscles. You’ll leave feeling rejuvenated and ready to face the day.
What to Know First
Wherever you choose to book your massage, know that a few things should be consistent. Look for a facility with highly-rated, well-reviewed services and friendly staff. Not everyone is comfortable with the same techniques and approaches, so be sure to communicate clearly with your provider what you’re looking to. Openness to this communication is key for their success in treating you, so make sure to only sign off on consent to treat and bill if you’re satisfied with this upfront treatment. Finding a place you love to get your massages is the best way to ensure that you’ll return regularly, and get the biggest benefit from the therapy itself.
