I tried an answering service out and it was a HUGE mistake. I never had so many client complaints and lost customers -- the people answering the phones couldn't even pronounce the name of my business half the time, they followed a script which made the conversational flow unbearably awkward for my clients, and they had no helpful answers to basic questions ("How much is a 60 minute massage?"

There is a much greater return on investment with a good voicemail message and an online booking service, in my experience.

We treat chronic tension in both body and mind. Chronic tension is due to stress, which is keeping one's "fight or flight" system on constantly. This constricts blood vessels and causes pain in the muscles. Most massage therapists only treat the muscles, but we show people how to recognize when their "fight or flight" system is on, and teach them how to activate their "rest and recover" system (parasympathetic nervous system), which makes tension go away.
My personal experience with chronic pain allows me to treat from an empathic level. I also integrate mind and body together to get to the origin of pain in order to avoid "band-aid" treatments.
