Massage FAQs

What is a chair massage?

A chair massage is a 10, 15, 20 or 30 minute massage that focuses on the high tension areas of the neck, back, shoulders, arms and hands. The massage is performed on an ergonomically designed portable massage chair. You sit on the massage chair facing forward, with your head in a face rest. You don’t remove any clothing. Chair massage produces therapeutic results quickly by concentrating on the areas of greatest tension. Great for groups.

What is the difference between a table and chair massage?

A chair massage is a massage ranging between 10-60 minutes. It focuses primarily on back, neck, shoulders, and arms whereas a table massage generally focuses on the whole body. Table massages typically range from 1-2 hours, but 90 minute massages are available too.  You can also split table massage time into 30 minute increments for groups.  Chair massage can be given anywhere and is fully clothed, whereas table massage you will be asked to disrobe to your comfort level. Oils or lotions are used for table massage whereas oils are not used for chair massage although an absorbent lotion may be used on arms during a chair massage. Chair massage is given on a specially designed massage chair while table massage is given in a reclining position on a specially designed massage table.

How much space is needed for a chair massage?

Not much - only a small 5' x 6' area is needed for the therapist to set up the massage chair and have enough room to move around comfortably.

How much space is needed for a table massage?

A small 7' x 7' area is needed for the therapist to set up the massage table and have enough room to move around comfortably. We can fit into almost any hotel room.

Do I remove clothing for a chair massage?

No. During a chair massage, you remain fully clothed, though you may be asked to remove a jacket or obstructive jewelry.

In a table massage, what does disrobe to my level of comfort mean?

When receiving a table massage we want to make sure that we can get to all areas of the body. You are welcome to leave anything on that makes you feel comfortable, however, we suggest removing any undergarments so that we can work the entire back.

Do they use oils during a chair massage?

No oils are used in chair massage. Sometimes a light and absorbent lotion is applied during hand massage. Please let your therapist know if you prefer no lotion, or have any medical conditions or allergies.

What about cleanliness?

Before each massage session begins, the massage therapists will wash their hands and clean and disinfect the massage chair.  After each massage, this is repeated. Face covers for the chair are used only once and discarded and a fresh face-rest cover will be applied.

What if I want more or less pressure?
