How to Find a Massage Therapist

Massage Therapy

Massage therapy is a great tool to help you avoid pain, manage stress, and enjoy better wellness in your day-to-day. If you’re looking to find a massage therapist to help you feel better and pursue your health goals, it helps to know what to look for.

3 Steps to Help You Find a Massage Therapist

1. Know Your Goals

Massage therapy is not a one-size-fits-all medical practice. Some licensed massage therapists specialize in different skills and modalities, which can be important for making sure you get what you want out of your experience. If you’re living with chronic pain or recovering from an auto accident, for example, your needs may differ from a therapist who is certified to work with athletes.

2. Check the Paperwork

There’s a world of difference between an end-of-the-day massage you get from your partner and the work a professional does. In order to practice, a massage therapist must be licensed in the state they work and carry some level of certification. Massage therapists can hold titles like Certified Massage Therapist, Sports Massage Therapist, and Neuromuscular Therapist among others, which also helps you determine their specialties.

3. Have a Conversation

When you find a massage therapist who seems to fit your needs, make doubly sure by scheduling a call or consultation. Just like how you’d want to discuss your wants, needs, and goals with an attorney or contractor, talking with your potential massage therapist will ensure that you’re on the same page and get a good feeling from them. This also gives you a forum to ask questions about things like cost, frequency of treatment, and whether massage therapy is the best fit for you.

I have been going to Williamsburg Chiropractic for two months. It is clear that the doctors at this practice are dedicated to helping their patients feel the best that they can. I love that the intake process includes taking x-rays, as it provided me with a clear picture of my structural imbalances and helps me understand more deeply how the adjustments are helping to realign my spine. There are also incremental body scan check-ins which reveal the progress my nervous system is making as a result of the adjustments over time. The office is also very efficient with wait times. Highly recommend!

Williamsburg Chiropractic is a quality practice all around.The front desk staff are always kind and responsive, Dr. Hoffman & Dr. Thomas are informative and consistently demonstrate expertise in their field, and I've never had a single billing issue (even while using my medical insurance plan).I highly recommend scheduling an appointment with Williamsburg Chiropractic if you're experiencing any pain or discomfort - no matter the severity - as they may be able to help!

I suffered from a pinched nerve from my neck running down my arm for 3 months. It stopped me from working out which I had been doing daily. Went to a physical therapist for 2 of the 3 months. Did acupuncture regularly. Visited a neurologist. I did not want to take any medication to get rid of the pain, but nothing was working. Until I found Williamsburg Chiropractic.After very thorough examination and 1 week of treatment, we had established the reason for my pinched nerve and the pain had reduced by 60%. 2 weeks after that the pain was completely gone and I am now back to my routine of lifting heavy weights. BIG BIG thank you to the amazing people at Williamsburg Chiropractic. I am forever grateful and VERY HIGHLY recommend them to anyone suffering from any sort of body aches.

Super professional, and human. I felt seen, heard and I feel there is a real path to higher well-being through this practice.

I tweaked my back weightlifting, and it was pretty painful to say the least. Within one session with Dr. Hoffman, I was in significantly less pain, and in two sessions in two days I was near back to normal. If you're debating a holistic route to pain, this is a great place to start. They x-ray you so they know exactly what they're working with and are very patient with explaining everything going on with your body. Would recommend!
