Chair Massage in Coeur d'Alene and Hayden
Chair massage, which is also referred to as seated or "on-site" massage, is a brief body massage session during which the patient lays face down on a specially designed massage chair. While in the chair, the patient's neck, back, shoulders, arms and hips are all accessible to the therapist.
There are some benefits of chair massages as opposed to conventional massages on massage chair. Firstly, the massage is done through the clothing. This saves people the time of undressing and any embarrassment they might feel. Because the massage is completed through the clothing, it involves no messy massage oils or creams. It's simply a direct massage of the muscle tissues to relieve stress and pain. Chair massage is convenient because with the mobility of the chair, the massage can come to you wherever you are. It can be brought into a person's home or office and since it doesn't take as long as traditional massages, anyone can find time to get a massage. The massage makes people feel safe because it can be done right out in the open as complete privacy isn't needed. It's inexpensive compared to other therapies and it focuses on quickly targeting the key tension areas of the body: the back neck and shoulders.
One thing to make note of however, is that most chairs massage therapists are not registered massage therapists. This is because they do not focus on therapeutic massage or rehabilitation. Hence, they charge less money per session. However, chair massage therapists are still professionals trained in stress relief and relaxation. All therapists in our office are licensed & nationally certified.
