Globe Massage offers therapeutic, medical, and restorative bodywork tailored to your unique needs. Each session blends advanced techniques and intuitive touch to relieve pain, improve mobility, and support recovery.

How long are the sessions?

Most sessions run 90 to 120 minutes—long enough for real, lasting results. Kerry recommends at least 90 minutes to give your body the time it needs to fully respond, release tension, and reset.

Do I need to prepare for my session?

Arrive well-hydrated and in comfortable clothing. Take a few minutes to discuss any concerns, injuries, or goals with Kerry before your session begins—communication ensures your treatment is safe, effective, and tailored to your needs. A few deep breaths before we begin never hurt either.

Is massage suitable for everyone?

Massage is beneficial for most people, but if you have medical conditions, recent injuries, or other concerns, it’s always wise to check with your doctor first. Kerry will tailor your session to ensure it’s safe and supportive for your unique needs.

How often should I get a massage?

Regular sessions are recommended for optimal recovery and pain management. Every body is different, and needs can shift with lifestyle, activity level, and stress. Kerry provides personalized recommendations at the end of each session to help you stay on track and feel your best.

Can massage help with injury recovery?

Absolutely. Massage can be a key part of injury recovery—helping reduce pain, release tension, and improve circulation so your body can heal more efficiently. Kerry tailors each session to safely support your recovery.
