How can a massage therapist help me?


There are many short-term and long-term benefits of visiting a massage therapist! Whether you are wanting a relaxing day to unwind and take care of your body, recovering from intense physical activity, or rehabilitate an injury or pain condition, a massage therapist can help your body to relax and heal. The following are just some of the great benefits of visiting a massage therapist and some conditions they can help:

• Anxiety and depression
• Enhanced concentration and energy
• Healing scar tissue, as well as ligament, muscle, or tendon damage
• Hypertension
• Improved circulation and blood flow
• Improved sleep
• Increased flexibility and range of motion
• Myofascial pain
• Nerve compression release for carpal tunnel or sciatica
• Osteoarthritis
• Physical and mental relaxation
• Pregnancy-related back pain
• Raynaud’s disease
• Relief for tight muscles, aches, and pains
• Rheumatoid arthritis
• Scoliosis
• Tendonitis
• Tension headaches
• Torticollis
• Treatment for varicose veins

How often should I receive massage therapy?


If you seek massage therapy for general wellness, aim to make an appointment about between one to four visits every month. However, if your massage therapy is part of a broader physical therapy program, you might require a massage more frequently. That said, the number of times you should go for massage therapy in such a case will ultimately depend on you and your therapist’s discretion.

Do I need a doctor’s referral for massage therapy?


No doctor’s referral is required for massage therapy! That said, if you are hoping that your health insurance will cover your massage therapy, most insurance do not cover massage therapy.

What should I expect from a massage therapy visit?


You have arrived at Golden State Medical Center for massage therapy. What is next? Well, as soon as you walk through our doors, one of our receptionists will greet you and give you a questionnaire to fill out. This questionnaire will consist of questions regarding your medical history, medications you take, and any injuries you have. It will also ask you to specify which areas you would like your massage therapist to focus on during the session.

Once the massage therapist is ready to see you, they will direct you to a private room. They will then give you some directions and privacy to undress and lie down in a comfortable position on the massage table with covers over you. Once you are comfortable, the massage therapist will come back to the room and create a relaxing atmosphere. Then, they will apply some massage lotion to their hands and begin moving their hands in strategic ways in the specified treatment areas. You may be asked to reposition yourself at different times during the session as your therapist focuses on other areas. You should not experience any pain during the session. Still, your therapist will likely ask you at different times throughout if you are experiencing pain to ensure that everything is okay with therapy.
