"Hate Getting Massages? This Little Tip Could Change Your Mind" | The Zoe Report

So happy to be quoted in such an informative news story. No article could cover all the various types of therapeutic massage worldwide, but this does provide a comprehensive view of many of the most common types. Our massage therapists offer several different styles of massage to help patients recover and feel their best.

When it comes to getting a massage, you might just book one at a nearby spa or wellness space without giving it a second thought. But if you’re new to booking one, with different types of massage techniques out there, which one should you choose? And how do you go about finding the “right” one for you?

Dr. Tom Ingegno, doctor of acupuncture and Chinese Medicine and chief clinician at Charm City Integrative Health in Baltimore, Maryland, says it’s a good idea to call and speak to a massage therapist or two first. You can explain why you’re seeking a massage — whether it’s for general relaxation or muscle pain, for example — and then choose a type of massage from there. “Interview practitioners,” he tells TZR. “Read their bio on the office’s website and call to ask questions. Many practitioners are trained in multiple systems and should be able to combine them in a way to provide the most benefit to their clients. Also, make sure that the practitioner is licensed, registered, or certified.”
