How to Choose the Perfect Massage Session Length
At The Haven at Cary, every session is customized to your body’s needs. Choosing the right amount of time helps ensure you receive the most benefit from your treatment — whether your goal is gentle relaxation, focused recovery, or post-surgical care.
🕧 30 Minutes – Targeted Relief
Ideal for one specific area of focus such as the neck and shoulders, lower back, or a localized area of swelling or discomfort. Perfect for quick follow-up sessions or maintenance between longer appointments.
🕐 60 Minutes – Full Body Reset
A well-balanced option for relaxation or general wellness. This allows time for a full-body massage when there aren’t major problem areas, or for a focused therapeutic session on one or two key regions.
🕜 90 Minutes – Deep Therapeutic or General Lymphatic Session
Our most popular choice. This gives room for a full-body session and extra time to address one or two areas that need deeper attention. You’ll leave feeling balanced, restored, and unhurried. Also our recommended starting point for lymphatic drainage therapy, which requires adequate time for gentle, methodical work. Also ideal for a full-body massage with added attention to areas needing deeper or more clinical care.
🕑 2 Hours – Comprehensive Restorative Care
A perfect choice for clients seeking extended therapeutic focus. This session allows for slow, detailed work on multiple areas, supporting recovery from chronic tension, injury, or post-surgical healing.
🕒 3 Hours – Transformational Experience
A total reset for the body and mind. Ideal for clients seeking profound healing or complete decompression. Every inch is cared for, every layer of tension unwound. Also designed for those needing intensive lymphatic and muscle recovery support. This session blends lymphatic drainage with medical massage techniques for comprehensive treatment of post-surgical swelling, scar tissue, and muscular dysfunction. It’s deeply restorative, balancing precision with relaxation.
