How Often Should You Book a Massage?
A simple guide to spacing your appointments so the benefits actually last.
The honest answer depends on why you are booking. Someone managing daily shoulder pain from a desk job needs a different rhythm to someone treating a massage as a monthly reward.
For general relaxation, once a month keeps you feeling steady without taking over your budget. Clients who sit at a computer all week often do better on a back, neck and shoulder treatment every two weeks, then move to monthly once the tension settles.
If you are training hard or on your feet for long shifts, book shorter focused sessions more often rather than one long treatment every few months. Regular short work keeps muscle tightness from building up in the first place.
Between appointments, small habits help. Drink water, stretch the shoulders during the day and take short walks. Tell your therapist what changed since the last visit so the pressure and focus can be adjusted.
