I have never had a massage before and don't know what I need.
We are definitely here to help! If you have never had a massage before, we will first ask if you are coming in with a specific condition that needs to be addressed or just to get a relaxing treatment. From there, we will be able to match you with the therapist who best meets your needs. We normally suggest 60 minute treatments for first time adult clients, and 30 minute treatments for first time minor clients.

Can you run my insurance to find out how much I get covered?
This is tricky as not all insurance companies let us run Pre-Authorizations, so the best advice we always give is to call your insurance company and ask them (we cannot call them on your behalf for privacy reasons):
- Can my plan be direct billed?
- Do I need a doctor's note?
- What does my plan cover?
This way you are not surprised if direct billing cannot be processed when you come in for your treatment.
