OUR APPROACH TO BODYWORK and
WHAT TO EXPECT DURING YOUR SESSION:
At Backbeats Bodywork, we believe in co-created treatments that are holistic, therapeutic, creative, and client-centered. Goals for each session are discussed beforehand, and massages are customized to meet the unique needs of each client. We take care to establish a foundation of trust and communication, and blend techniques such as: deep tissue, myofascial release, energy healing, sports massage and Swedish. Music is incorporated as an integrated part of the healing process. We offer a highly specialized variety of custom, hand-made, and unconventional-yet-relaxing, musical playlist options for your session. After each treatment, we will discuss a follow-up plan that meets your needs, and do our best to support you in getting any additional services that might benefit your healing process.
