Massage Therapist Q&A: Patrick
Two things. I enjoy seeing clients put in effort towards their health goals and being a part of their journey. And I love working with a tough muscle after a few minutes and feeling it melt under my fingers.
What do you enjoy most about massage therapy?
How would you describe your technique/style?
I balance my massage style between what the client wants and what the body needs. It becomes a three-way dance between the client, the client's body, and the therapist, me.
What do you think is a comfortable pressure to use on a client’s muscles?
Sometimes deep pressure is not necessary. When it is, the client's ability to remain relaxed and utilize deep breathing ensures that I can keep working effectively.
