Tessi Massage Therapy is a massage therapist at 15 Holyhead Street in Outram, in the Dunedin area of Otago. It has a 5.0 rating on Google.
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. Outram is a country town on the Taieri Plain, so it is worth confirming the address and parking when you book.
For anyone in Outram and the Taieri, Tessi Massage Therapy on Holyhead Street is a local place to book a massage.
