To a large degree your self-image is influenced by the pictures and messages you continually feed into your mind.… Read the rest

Will I be Covered During my Massage?

It is the policy of Anoka Massage and Pain Therapy that clients remain draped at all times. Clients will have a sheet and/or blanket draped over you at all times. Your therapist will adjust draping as he/she works to expose areas (never the genitalia) and then recover them and move on.
