Many places, such as most spas and massage chains, time their “one hour” massages at around 42 to 45 minutes of actual hands-on treatment. Unfortunately, this makes clients feel rushed, and undervalued.
When you book a massage at Elements of Bodywork, the length of your session can be 30, 40, 60, or 90 minutes, with a 20 to 30-minute buffer between client appointments. Your massage time starts at the time of your appointment, so being on time is very important to get the full benefit of your bodywork session. However, we do allow for some additional time to complete your checkout and rebooking, and to demonstrate stretches that can help you improve muscular health and joint range of motion. This can allow your therapist an additional few minutes to complete your bodywork session, and avoiding being rushed.
It’s more important for us to provide quality care rather than to schedule as many massages as possible in a day. We highly value our clients.
