setting goals

I begin each therapeutic relationship by gaining a clear understanding of your treatment objectives. Are you looking for a general relaxation massage or do you want to work on a long-standing issue or injury? Do you seek to reduce pain or stiffness in a particular muscle group, or do you want to increase your energy level and feel more alert and engaged? The treatment plan and my intention during the session are guided by your goals which may be physical, emotional, spiritual, or a combination of these. Goals may be simple or complex, short or long-term, and are likely to evolve over time.
