  • DOES IT MATTER WHAT TIME OF DAY I RECEIVE A MASSAGE?
    Generally no, but most people prefer either first thing in the morning as it sets the day and gets them going (massage induces feelings of relaxation and clarity, therefore you’re more focused and productive), or towards the end of their day where they feel more restful winding down the day. Those wanting remedial work should book a treatment as soon as convenient.
  • IS IT NORMAL TO BE SORE AFTER A MASSAGE?
    Yes, particularly if a remedial, sports or deep tissue massage has been given. The soreness has been described as a feeling of being healed yet sore to touch, rather than the sort of pain felt from an injury. It usually takes a couple of days before the soreness subsides or disappears.
  • HOW OFTEN SHOULD I GET A MASSAGE?
    A: It depends on your goals regarding your health and lifestyle. Generally for relaxation and maintenance from injury, a massage is recommended every 2-3 weeks. For those that require treatment for injury then weekly or twice weekly is recommended for the first few visits and then have it pan out to a maintenance routine.
  • WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RELAXATION MASSAGE AND DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE?
    This is a common question! Relaxation Massage is generally a more relaxing experience, using long strokes with light, to firm, pressure. For those who want something a little more rigorous, a Deep Tissue massage involves a lot more pressure, helping to release tension deep within the muscles.
  • DO YOU OFFER COUPLES MASSAGE?
    A: No. MAR is a boutique studio offering at this moment only one-on-one service.
