Pre/post-natal and Side lying Set up

Clients who are pregnant or are most comfortable laying on their side will be properly supported with a variety of bolsters. Semi-firm foam bolsters are supportive yet soft enough for optimal comfort. Side lying is optional and most beneficial not just for accessing specific muscles but also working on muscles at a different angle.

Client Before and After Photos

IG: @depth_before_dishonor, Alan booked a 60 minute massage after his workout. He is a desk worker in the day and trains intensively in his free time. His presenting Issue was the left hamstring; dull achy sensation that is constantly bothering him. After working his primary concern, we moved onto his back and traps. Comparing the before and after photos, Alan is now standing upright, with a significant decrease in swelling on his back. He looks more lean after 1 hour of focused body work.

IG: @Mighty.mike, certified training coach, and prepping for body building. 2 days post power lift competition. Inflamed and swollen. We booked a 90 minute massage session to rejuvenate his body. Our main focus was working the back, lats, traps, quads and feet. You can see the difference in his posture. We used hots stones to flush out toxins and getting the body to relax after intensive compression of muscles and joints. Follow our journey as we prep him for body building IG:@bodyworkbyari
