What to Expect at Your First Massage Session
Before You Arrive
You’ll receive intake forms, a body pain chart, and consent documents to complete online before your appointment. This helps your Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT) understand your goals and medical history in advance — so we can focus on treatment, not paperwork.
Finding Us
We’re located at 160 South Park St. in Eugene. Give yourself a few extra minutes for parking — metered spaces are available nearby, or use the City Hall Surface Lot on Pearl Street.
When You Arrive
Come on in, have a seat in the waiting area, and feel free to use a percussion device while you wait. Your therapist will greet you promptly — we run on time 99% of the time.
During Your Session
Expect one-on-one, focused care using a combination of techniques like deep tissue, assisted stretching, and myoskeletal therapy. Pressure and approach are always customized to your needs.
Your Comfort Comes First
You’re in control. If anything feels uncomfortable — pressure, technique, or positioning — just say so. We’ll adjust immediately to ensure your session is effective and relaxing.
What types of massage do you offer?
We offer therapeutic, deep tissue, sports massage, relaxation, and recovery-focused sessions. Each session is tailored to your goals — whether that’s reducing pain, improving mobility, or supporting training and recovery.
What should I wear or bring to my massage?
Wear whatever makes you comfortable. You’ll be draped appropriately during treatment, and your therapist will walk you through positioning. Just arrive a few minutes early to relax before your session.
Can massage help with injury recovery or chronic pain?
Yes. Our massage therapists work closely with our Physical Therapists and coaches to support recovery from overuse injuries, muscle tension, mobility restrictions, and chronic pain. Massage can be an effective part of an overall treatment or performance plan.
How often should I get a massage?
Most people benefit from massage every 3–4 weeks to stay ahead of tension, maintain mobility, and support recovery. That frequency can vary based on your stress levels, training load, or specific goals. Learn more about how regular massage supports performance and wellness.
Who is massage therapy ideal for at Zenith?
Our massage services are ideal for runners, cyclists, athletes, active adults, and anyone dealing with pain, tension, or movement restrictions.
Do you accept HSA/FSA or PIP/MVA?
Some FSA and HSA plans allow massage therapy if it’s prescribed for a specific medical condition. While we don’t bill insurance directly, we can provide a superbill for potential reimbursement. Please check with your provider to confirm what’s covered.
We accept Personal Injury Protection for Motor Vehicle Accident claims. If you’re unsure whether your claim covers massage or soft-tissue treatment, we can help check your benefits and provide all required documentation.
Can I combine massage therapy with PT or strength training?
Definitely. Many clients use massage alongside Physical Therapy or Strength Training to improve movement, reduce soreness, and speed up recovery. Your PT or strength coach can recommend the best timing and schedule based on your goals.
