The terms "full body massage" and "therapeutic massage" are often used interchangeably, but there can be a subtle distinction in their meanings, depending on the context. In general, both terms refer to the manipulation of soft tissues in the body to achieve certain physical, mental, or emotional effects. Let's explore the differences:

Massage:

Broad Term: "Massage" is a more general term that encompasses a variety of techniques aimed at manipulating the body's soft tissues, such as muscles, tendons, ligaments, and connective tissue.

Therapeutic Massage:

Focused on Healing: "Therapeutic massage" often implies a more targeted and outcome-oriented approach. It is designed to address specific issues or conditions, such as chronic pain, injuries, or musculoskeletal imbalances.

Opt for loose, comfortable clothing. A pair of soft, breathable sweatpants or yoga pants works well.

At Pranava, you are given privacy in your own treatment room to undress. During the massage, only the part of your body being worked on will be uncovered, and the rest of your body will be draped for modesty.

Though it is common to undress fully for a session to allow your therapist access to bodywork, it is important to communicate with your massage therapist about your comfort level. If you prefer to keep some or all of your clothing on during the massage, let your therapist know. Massage therapy is about your relaxation and well-being, and our therapists will meet you where you are with your comfort levels!

Remember to remove any jewelry, watches, or accessories that might interfere with the full body massage. The focus is on creating a relaxing and stress-free experience, so keep it simple and comfortable.

Expanded Information On Costs of Massages:

Expertise and Experience: Highly trained and experienced massage therapists like ours at Pranava can charge more for their services. Their expertise in various massage techniques, anatomy, and specialized modalities justify a higher price.

Location: The cost of living and operating a business in a particular area can influence massage prices. In urban or upscale areas, where operating costs are higher, you may find that massages are more expensive. Hello Denver!

Spa or Studio Amenities: Luxury spas or studios with upscale facilities, soothing ambiance, and additional amenities (such as sauna) tend to charge more for their services.

Type of Massage: Different types of massages may have varying prices. For example, specialty or craniosacral therapy might be more expensive than a basic Therapeutic massage due to the specialized skills and training required.

Duration of the Massage: Longer sessions generally cost more than shorter ones. A 90-minute massage will cost more than a 60-minute session.

Quality of Products Used: If the spa or massage studio uses high-quality oils, lotions, and other products, it may contribute to a higher overall cost. At Pranava we use highly researched organic, vegan, and locally sourced products.

No one likes to come out of a massage in a blissed out state to then worry about what to do about tips! To make it simple, we kindly add a FAIR WAGE gratuity upon checkout for Member / Non-Member massage sessions for our LMT’s. This excludes Landon’s Flat Rates. We recognize that many talented LMT’s circulate to find their worth. Unfairly, they are sometimes recipients of very low gratuity for outstanding service. Here, we eliminate the guesswork of “What is the minimum I should tip in the service industry?”

Tipping in cash & requesting to tip extra is always greatly appreciated. The FAIR WAGE gratuity is added on just the massage transaction, minus any retail and/or gift cards at checkout.

Thank you for your evolutionary acceptance & support.

A full-body massage is a therapeutic practice that involves manipulating the muscles and soft tissues throughout the entire body. It is designed to promote relaxation, alleviate tension, and improve overall well-being.

CBD massages are a game-changer. Picture this: the soothing touch of a massage combined with the calming power of CBD. It's like a symphony for your senses. The CBD takes relaxation to a whole new level, melting away tension and leaving you in a state of pure bliss. Trust Pranava, it's not just a massage; it's a journey to tranquility. Totally worth it!

Great question. Generally, CBD massages shouldn't show up on a drug test because they typically use CBD products with minimal THC content. THC is the compound that drug tests usually look for.
