What should I expect when I come to a session?
You will be asked to fill out an intake/health history form that will help us understand your goal for your treatment, your general health, specific injuries, whether you are under a doctor’s care, and if you are taking blood thinners. It is important to always update us before your treatments of any change in your medication or medical condition. We will work together before, during and after your treatments to achieve your therapeutic goals.
Do I have to completely undress? Am I covered during the treatment?
No, you undress to your comfort level. Your underwear can be left on. In fact, for your Structural Energetic Therapy or Myofascial Release treatment, you will be asked to leave your underwear on, including your bra.
Will my massage or Structural Energetic Therapy treatment hurt?
That depends on the type of massage and the depth of the technique. A Swedish based massage won’t hurt because the goal is relaxation during the treatment. A deeper based massage, such as sports or myofascial release, will help relieve chronically tight muscles and fascia and often has that "good hurt" feeling. A deep massage may leave some residual soreness the next day. If at any time you are uncomfortable with the pressure of the technique, we will "lighten up" or change a technique. You are always encouraged to tell us if something about your massage isn't working for you.
What is therapeutic massage at Bodyology Therapeutics?
Therapeutic massage at Bodyology Therapeutics can involve body reading to assess how and where your body holds tension, muscle testing, medical massage techniques based on your individual needs, and home based self care suggestions to enhance the healing effects of your massage.
Is massage or Structural Energetic Therapy at Bodyology Therapeutics covered by insurance?
We are not able to provide medical billing services. We can provide your doctor with treatment notes and records and can give receipts for your treatments for your own personal reimbursement. We require payment for your massage at the time of your treatment.
How do I purchase a gift certificate from Bodyology Therapeutics?
Many clients will purchase a gift certificate when they come in for their own personal treatment. We also sell gift certificates on-line for your convenience.
