Have you ever been to a county fair or music festival and envied the chair massages of others? Have you ever passed by an airport chair massage section? Maybe you work for a company that provides regular 15- to 20 minute massages. Chair massages can be done on-site. You'll sit in a specially designed, portable chair while fully dressed. These massages usually include a massage to your neck, shoulders and back as well as your hands.
Before you can choose the right massage style for you, it is important to ask yourself this question. You may just want to relax and manage your stress. You may also need to ease symptoms or manage a health condition. Tell the massage therapist what you want and which style you prefer before you book. Many people prefer to use more than one style. You may also request a customized massage depending on your goals or age.
