What to Expect when getting a massage at TMTC

At Temora Massage Therapy Clinic, we prioritize the well-being and satisfaction of our clients. To ensure a tailored and effective massage experience, we conduct a thorough consultation before each session. Here is an overview of our professional massage consultation process:

1. Prior to your arrival:

• You will been emailed your booking confirmation with a intake form link for you to complete prior to your first visit. This contains basic health information, contain questions that are addressing potential issues which may challenge the appropriateness of massage at that time. For example, if you have a current fever or infection, it is better to stay home and recover, rather than have a massage at this time. It also addresses allergies to ensure we keep any triggers to an absolute minimum to keep you safe.

2. When you arrive:

• Your massage therapist will greet you and introduce themselves. They will guide you to a private and comfortable consultation area within the clinic. There is a bathroom in the next room which we invite you to use prior to your massage for your comfort.

3. Health History Review:

• The therapist will review the information provided in your intake form, including any existing medical conditions, injuries, or areas of concern. This helps them understand your unique health profile and tailor the massage accordingly.

4. Discussion of Goals and Expectations:

• The therapist will inquire about your specific goals for the massage session. Whether you seek relaxation, pain relief, stress reduction, or have targeted concerns, this discussion helps the therapist customise the massage to meet your expectations.

5. Communication Preferences:

• Your therapist will discuss and establish your preferred level of communication during the massage. Some clients prefer silence, while others appreciate communication about pressure, comfort, or any adjustments needed.

6. Assessment of Physical Condition:

• The therapist may perform a brief assessment of your posture, range of motion, and any visible signs of tension or discomfort. This allows them to target specific areas that may need focused attention.

7. Discussion of Treatment Plan:

• Based on the information gathered, the therapist will outline a treatment plan for the session. This may include the choice of massage technique (e.g., relaxation, deep tissue, sports massage) and any specific areas that require attention.

8. Informed Consent:

• Before proceeding with the massage, the therapist will ensure you fully understand the proposed treatment plan. They will seek your informed consent and answer any questions you may have.

9. Privacy and Draping:

• The therapist will provide you with privacy to undress to your comfort level and position yourself on the massage table. You will be appropriately draped throughout the session, with only the area being worked on exposed.

10. Ongoing Communication:

• Throughout the massage, the therapist will check in regarding pressure, comfort, and any adjustments needed to ensure a positive and effective experience.
