What’s the Difference Between Therapeutic and Regular Massage?
Many people wonder whether there’s a difference between a therapeutic massage and a regular relaxation massage. Here's what you need to know before scheduling your session.
Therapeutic Massage
This type of massage is designed to target and treat pain in specific muscles or areas of tension. It’s highly customizable and focuses on relief, healing, and mobility. I use techniques that reach deeper layers of muscle without causing discomfort.
Regular Massage
A relaxation massage, on the other hand, is primarily focused on helping you unwind. It uses lighter pressure and flowing strokes to reduce overall stress and tension.
Both massage types have value—it just depends on your goals. If you’re still unsure, I’ll gladly walk you through the differences and help you choose what’s right for your needs.
My Therapeutic Massage Process at Better Health Concepts LLC.
When you book with me, you’ll be able to choose a session length that works best for you—30, 60, or 90 minutes. Each session is tailored to your body and your goals for healing.
Here’s what to expect during your therapeutic massage:
Abdominal Shiatsu Techniques
If needed, I may incorporate abdominal shiatsu techniques, which are rooted in traditional Chinese therapy. These techniques improve circulation and reduce fatigue, especially around the core.
Targeted Pressure
I use my hands, forearms, and fingers to apply the right amount of pressure to your muscles. This helps relieve pain, release tension, and improve mobility.
Warm Mint Face Towel
After your session, you’ll receive a complimentary warm mint face towel to refresh and soothe your senses—the perfect way to wrap up your massage.
Health Benefits of
Therapeutic Massage
Therapeutic massage is more than just relaxing—it has measurable benefits for both body and mind. When I work on targeted areas of pain or muscle strain, I help your body recover, reset, and renew.
Some of the benefits include:
- Reduced stress hormone levels
- Increased flexibility and joint range of motion
- Faster recovery of injured or strained tissues
- Boosted lymphatic function and circulation
- Improved sleep and overall well-being
Let’s work together to get your body feeling better.
How Long Is a Therapeutic Massage Session?
You can choose from three session lengths based on your needs:
- 30 minutes for focused relief
- 60 minutes for a full-body reset
- 90 minutes for deeper, extended care
During your session, I may use cross-fiber friction and other advanced techniques to access deeper muscle layers safely and comfortably. If you're unsure how long you’ll need, we can talk through it at your first appointment—I’ll guide you through what’s best for your body.
