The Massage Clinic Christchurch is a massage therapist at 156 Simeon Street in Spreydon, Christchurch. It has a 5.0 rating on Google and a website.
A good massage therapist starts by asking about your aches, injuries, medical history and what you want from the session, then adjusts pressure and technique to suit. Expect to undress to your comfort level, be draped with a towel and be checked in with during the session, and speak up if the pressure is too light or too firm. When choosing a therapist, ask about qualifications, the type of massage on offer, such as relaxation, remedial or sports, and how long a session lasts. Regulars know that drinking water afterwards helps, that you may feel a little sore the next day after deeper work and that telling the therapist about medication, pregnancy or recent injury is important. In New Zealand, ACC may cover treatment for some injuries, so ask whether it applies. Arrive a few minutes early.
