— The session
What a body massage involves.
In a body massage, the therapist uses a range of hands-on techniques to work your muscles and soft tissues. Most people book one for relaxation, stress reduction, muscle tension or general wellness. On our menu you'll find Swedish, deep tissue, CBD oil and couples massage, each designed to ease muscle tension, enhance circulation, and promote overall relaxation and wellness.
The styles we offer
Swedish is gentle and covers the full body. Deep tissue reaches the deeper muscle layers and focuses on chronic tension. CBD oil is the soothing, calming choice. With couples massage, two people relax together in one room. Your therapist will adjust the pressure and style to how your body feels that day.
How long it takes
Sessions are usually 30 minutes for a focused treatment, 60 minutes for a full-body massage, or 90 minutes or more for a fuller session. A massage for one person ranges from $50 for a 30-minute focus session to $135 for a 90-minute deep-tissue or CBD session. Couples options start at $170.
— Is it for me
Who a massage is for.
Massage is for anyone holding muscle tension or stress, and for anyone who wants full-body relaxation and recovery. The benefits people usually hope for are less muscle tension and stiffness, stress relief, improved circulation, more flexibility and a better sense of well-being.
How often to come in
It comes down to your goals. If you mostly want to relax, every four to eight weeks is common. For ongoing stress management, every two to four weeks usually feels better. There's no reason to come more often than your body wants.
Before & after your massage
Before your appointment, arrive a few minutes early and stay hydrated. Tell your therapist about any injuries, conditions or areas of concern, and what pressure you like. After the massage, drink water, move gently, and take some time to enjoy how you feel. A relaxation massage shouldn't be painful, so speak up any time the pressure is too intense.
— The wellness side
The wellness side of bodywork.
Massage is one of the oldest kinds of self-care. At D4 Season we focus on relaxation and on easing the muscle tension that builds up day to day. Massage may help you manage feelings of muscle tension and stress. It isn't a substitute for medical diagnosis or treatment, though.
