What could I expect from a typical treatment?
Typically, the first treatment would begin with a detailed intake and consultation, followed by a massage treatment.
Your treatment therapist will suggest a timeline for a follow-up treatment plan, which may include seeing other therapists for a wholistic approach to healing. This is because at The Garden we encourage working collaboratively to give patients the best possible treatment.
