Questions
What services does Back in balance offer?
We provide therapeutic massage, structural integration, myofascial release, craniosacral therapy, sports massage, and nutrition counseling. Specialized techniques include Ashiatsu (barefoot massage) and hot stone therapy.
How does structural integration differ from regular massage?
Structural Integration focuses on realigning connective tissue through deep, methodical work. Unlike standard massage, it addresses long-term postural imbalances and chronic pain patterns across ten progressive sessions.
Can massage therapy help with chronic pain conditions?
Yes. Clients with fibromyalgia, sports injuries, and post-surgical pain report significant improvement through our targeted techniques that release fascial restrictions and restore mobility.
Are gift certificates available?
Yes, gift certificates are available for all services including massage sessions, wellness packages, and specialty classes like self-massage techniques and nutrient-dense cooking workshops.
What should I wear during sessions?
Clients remain fully clothed for Ashiatsu and structural integration sessions. For other modalities, draping techniques maintain comfort while accessing treatment areas effectively.
