Benefits of a 90 Minute Massage

 

60 vs 90: Thirty Minutes Can Make A Big Difference in Your Massage

Massage is a therapeutic means of relaxing and bettering yourself. If you’ve received a massage of any duration (even just 10 minutes!), you’ve experienced the soothing effect that leaves your body and mind feeling rejuvenated. It’s important to make time for any length massage in your wellness routine. While each massage modality offers a distinct experience, how does the length of a massage impact the benefits you receive? 

There have been a lot of discussions about whether it’s better to get a 60 or a 90 minute massage. I tend to believe a 90 minute massage is typically a better deal. Here's why I endorse it. 

1. In a 90-minute session, I have time to incorporate enhanced techniques that cater to your specific wellness goals, such as stretching or hot/cold therapy. 

2. A 90-minute session offers more time to drift into relaxation and allows the me time to focus on specific areas of concern and apply a wider array of techniques. While a 60-minute massage provides intense relaxation and targeted muscle work, there may not be enough time to introduce a number of additional (and beneficial) techniques. 

Finally, although my position is that a 90 minute massage is better, I have to conclude that any massage is better than none. 

See you at your next 90 min. massage.
