About massage
Embrace Your Health Today
Massage is one of the oldest healing treatments used by man as far back as 3,000 years ago. Smooth, rhythmic strokes and kneading of the body’s tissues increases circulation to the muscles and cells. This cleansing and stimulation of the tissue also releases toxins and helps to improve energy flow and healing throughout the body.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD)
60 – 75 Minutes
Some health conditions or surgeries can cause swelling of the tissues and backup of lymph fluid in the skin and other tissues. MLD is a gentle massage technique that helps promote the movement of the built up lymph fluid out of the tissues and into the body’s natural drainage system. A quick phone consultation before scheduling will help therapist and client decide what duration and frequency of sessions may be needed for effective MLD therapy.

Frequently Asked
Questions
Most frequent questions we receive and the answers.
What to expect in your massage session
Your therapist will leave the room while you get ready for your session. You undress to whatever you are most comfortable in. Some prefer to be fully disrobed, while many leave on underwear. Women usually remove their bra to allow the therapist to work on the back and shoulder area without getting massage oil or lotion on the bra. You will always be draped modestly under a sheet and blanket, and the therapist uncovers only the area to be worked on. Although not ideal, it is usually possible to work on areas through clothing and/or sheets. Your therapist can talk to you about options if you have any concerns.
Do people fall asleep?
This is your time from start to finish, so if you would like to sleep, feel free to rest! If you would like to talk, that is acceptable as well. Some people are more comfortable talking and others prefer silence–either way is the right way.
What should I eat before?
It’s better to have a light meal and plenty of water before your massage. If you schedule a session with any type of work where it’s preferred to come on an empty stomach, your therapist will discuss that prior to your visit.
Can I drink alcohol after?
Yes, however we strongly suggest waiting. It is always recommended you stay hydrated and drink plenty of water afterwards, this helps in flushing out toxins released during the session.
Is it normal to become emotional?
Through massage therapy it’s possible to experience sudden emotions such as happiness, sadness, anger, confusion, anxiety. Just remember you are in a safe place, and let your therapist know if it becomes overwhelming. This type of response to massage may happen during any session, but it’s more common to when a client is receiving more frequent and deeper work.
Once again, these sessions are about you, and only you – so take whatever time is needed and breathe.
How do you know what type of massage that you need?
You can discuss that while making your appointment, and when you arrive your therapist will also discuss what your needs are for each session to decide what type of work to do. Always let your therapist know what kind of pressure you would like before a session. They will check in to make sure you’re comfortable with the pressure, temperature, etc. Some types of deeper work can be more uncomfortable, and it’s extremely important to communicate with your therapist to avoid possible injury. Be aware that deep tissue work can be contraindicated for some medical conditions or medications. Please be sure your health history is updated and complete each session.
Can I have a massage if I'm pregnant?
Generally, yes. Mountain Elite has both options for side lying or lying prone depending on the condition of the individual during their pregnancy.
However, deep tissue work during pregnancy is contraindicated, as is work around certain pressure points on the ankle and foot. Lighter pressure must be used around the lower back and hip areas for safety.
When filling out the client intake form, you may specify if you have any questions or concerns beforehand.
