Your first visit, without surprises
Most people worry about the same three things: undressing, pressure and what to say. Here’s how each one works, before you book.
You choose how much to undress, and you’re always covered.
Pressure is your call, and you can change it anytime.
You don’t have to talk. Quiet sessions are normal.
What clients say
“I came in for one stiff shoulder and finally understood why it keeps happening. The stretches actually stuck.”
Dana, software developer
“Booked a prenatal massage at 30 weeks. I was nervous, Rowan explained everything first and the side-lying setup was so comfortable.”
Mei, Sellwood
“Best thing I did for my marathon block. Firm when I wanted it, and honest about what to leave alone.”
Marcus, runner
Questions people ask
Will it hurt?
It shouldn’t feel sharp. Deep work can feel intense, like a good stretch, and you’re in charge of the pressure the whole time.
What do I wear?
Whatever you’re comfortable in. You undress to your comfort level under a sheet, and only the area I’m working on is uncovered.
How often should I come?
For a specific problem, often every one or two weeks for a few sessions, then less. For general upkeep, once a month works for most people.
Can I use my HSA or FSA?
Often yes, with a letter of medical necessity. I’ll give you an itemized receipt.
