What Are The Benefits of Massage?
Massage therapy is more than just relaxation; research shows it offers real health benefits. Mayo Clinic studies show that massage can ease stress, reduce pain, and release muscle tension. And a Harvard study found that massage helps muscles recover faster and grow back stronger after injury.
Massage may also help improve:
- Anxiety and stress-related insomnia
- Digestive issues
- Headaches and migraines
- Fibromyalgia
- Myofascial pain syndrome
- Soft tissue strains or injuries
- Sports-related aches or injuries
How Often Should You Get A Massage?
The ideal schedule depends on your body, lifestyle, and goals. For general stress relief or ongoing wellness, many people find that a massage every 4–6 weeks keeps tension in check.
If you’re recovering from an injury or managing chronic pain, more frequent sessions — weekly or every other week — can provide the best results. Your massage therapist can recommend the right plan for your needs.

What Is A Licensed Massage Therapist?
A licensed massage therapist (LMT) is a professional trained to work with the body’s soft tissues to ease pain, improve circulation, reduce stress, and promote relaxation. Most massage therapy programs take 6–12 months and combine classroom learning with supervised practice.
Like 43 other states and the District of Columbia, Texas requires massage therapists to both register with and be licensed through the state. The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation sets the requirements for education, training, and ongoing standards of practice.
What Should I Wear During A Full-Body Massage?
What you wear during your massage is entirely your choice. Many guests undress fully, while others prefer to leave on underwear. Before your session, your licensed massage therapist will step out so you can undress in private and get comfortable under the covers on the table.
During the massage, professional draping is always used — only the area being worked on is uncovered.
Minors Policy:
Guests under the age of 17 are must wear a bathing suit or undergarments while receiving a massage.
Will I Be Sore After My Massage?
It’s normal to feel a little tender after a massage, especially if deeper pressure was used. Massage can release built-up tension and lactic acid in the muscles, which may cause mild, temporary soreness.
To help your body recover, drink plenty of water afterward. Staying hydrated supports your tissues and helps your muscles feel their best.
Can I Choose A Male Or Female Massage Therapist?
Swedish vs Deep Tissue Massage
The key difference between Swedish massage and Deep Tissue Massage is the pressure. Swedish massage uses light to medium strokes to relax and improve circulation, while Deep Tissue Massage applies firmer, more focused pressure to release chronic tension and knots.
