Rest Integration

After your massage, you'll have ten minutes to rest and fully absorb the benefits of your treatment. Our resting period allows you to unwind and continue the relaxation process, ensuring that you leave feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and ready to take on the day.

Once you are off the table, be sure to drink lots of water. 

Here's why

Hydration: Massage therapy can increase blood circulation and promote the release of toxins from the muscles and tissues. Drinking water helps to flush out these toxins from the body, aiding in the detoxification process. Staying hydrated also helps to maintain optimal organ function and overall bodily health.

Replenishment: Massage can stimulate the body's systems and increase fluid movement. This may result in increased urine production and fluid loss. Drinking water helps to replenish the body's fluids and prevent dehydration.

Muscle Recovery: Massage can release muscle tension and promote relaxation. During the massage, muscle tissues may be manipulated, stretched, and stimulated, which can lead to the breakdown of waste products and the release of metabolic byproducts. Drinking water helps to support muscle recovery by providing the necessary hydration for cellular repair and regeneration.

Preventing Soreness: Some individuals may experience post-massage soreness or muscle tenderness. Proper hydration can help minimize this discomfort by keeping the muscles and tissues hydrated and promoting optimal recovery.

It's generally recommended to drink water after a massage to support the body's natural healing processes, aid in detoxification, and maintain overall well-being. Remember to listen to your body and drink water whenever you feel thirsty, as individual hydration needs may vary.
