When should I arrive at my appointment?If it is your first appointment, you will be asked to fill out a quick questionnaire. Please arrive about 5-10 minutes early to fill this out. This allows your therapist to spend as much time as possible performing your massage. If you have been into our office before, plan to arrive a few minutes early to give yourself time to use the restroom and communicate any trouble areas you want focused on with your therapist. --- Before going into the massage room, your therapist will ask if there are certain areas you want focused on. You will then have a few minutes to change and get ready for the massage. Your therapist will knock on the door to make sure you are ready before they enter. If you need a few more minutes, just let them know. At Cache Medical Massage, we strive to give you the most hands-on time as possible. If you are late, we cannot always extend appointment times due to other clients who have booked appointments. We do give our therapists 15 minutes between appointments to properly clean and change the room, to use the restroom and grab a drink and snack, to welcome their next client and have them fill out paperwork, and to help you check out and get rescheduled. Please remember that your therapist's time is valuable and to be fair to all clients, we ask that you please be on time to your appointment. We understand that life happens, and you may be late on occasion. Please understand that you may not get your full hands-on time if you are late.

What do I wear at my appointment?We will always encourage you to dress down to your comfort level. You will be properly draped throughout your massage. Our client's comfort is our top priority! In most cases, therapists can best treat you when they can touch skin. Access to skin is also needed to use extra tools like cups or soft tissue tools. Your therapist will walk through the areas being treated and recommend what level to dress down for the most effective treatment. Massage can be done fully clothed, however clothing may impede the number of tools and techniques utilized during your treatment. You may also choose to dress down completely for comfort. A sheet and blanket will be used for draping. The area being worked may be undraped while being treated but will be covered when the therapist is done treating that area. When working legs and hips the sheet will be wrapped around your leg to provide a higher level of comfort and security. If needed, you will be asked to hold the sheet when movement of a limb is used in the treatment. If you are ever concerned or uncomfortable, please let your therapist know and adjustments will be made. Some examples: If you are only needing neck, shoulder, and back work, you may choose to remove just your top clothing and leave your bottom clothing on. This allows the therapist to utilize all techniques and tools to treat your trouble areas. If you are receiving treatment for hip pain, you may choose to remain completely clothed. In this situation more pin and stretch and compression techniques will be used. If you are having shoulder and leg pain, you may choose to dress down completely. This would allow for more techniques and tools to be used. Your therapist is trained in proper draping techniques and will ensure you are comfortable.
