How to Contact Your Licensed Massage Therapist:
Please contact your LMT immediately if you anticipate being late, need to cancel your
appointment, or have any questions:

This policy is designed to keep the clinic running smoothly for all clients. By booking an appointment, you acknowledge and agree to the terms of this policy.

A Health History Questionnaire should be completed prior to your appointment time. This form can be found online as well as at the rec center front desk. Please plan to arrive 10-15 minutes before your scheduled appointment time to fill out the form if you have not already done so.

All appointments will begin on time. Completion of paperwork and/or being late to your appointment will cut in to your scheduled appointment time. It is the client's responsibility to update their Health History Questionnaire with any changes in health. Please make sure to communicate all changes to your health with your massage therapist.

Once you enter the rec center lobby area, let the front desk attendant know that you have arrived for your massage appointment. During this time you can fill out the required Massage Therapy Health History Questionnaire if you have not already done so.

Furthermore, if you have not paid for your massage you will do so BEFORE your appointment--during check in.

Everyone has different comfort levels when it comes to receiving a massage; therefore, it is up to you to decide what you wear during your massage. Only the section of your body being massaged will be exposed (the rest of your body will be covered by sheets). The main communication that needs to happen during your massage is for your comfort level, if you need more or less pressure, and/or if you experience pain in certain areas, you will communicate those needs.

General conversation during your massage is not necessary; you can talk as much as you would like or not at all.

Our massage therapists use USDA-certified organic lotion or oil, which is non-allergenic and noncomedogenic. It leaves your skin feeling soft, smooth, and conditioned- not greasy, oily or sticky.

The massage therapy rooms are located on the mid-level of the Maverick Center inside the Hamilton Rec Center, in the back hallway just north of the basketball courts.

If you have any specific needs, such as a disability, health concerns, or are pregnant, please let us know in advance so the massage therapist allows plenty of time before and after your massage; and we can make the proper accommodations.
