Arrival and intake

For your first appointment at New Dimensions Bodywork, plan to arrive 15-20 minutes early. This gives enough time for paperwork, consultation, and clear goal setting without feeling rushed.

Follow-up appointments usually require arriving 5-10 minutes early. That timing keeps your session start smooth and allows quick updates before treatment begins.

If you are delayed, send a text as soon as possible so expectations can be managed clearly.

Arriving calm and on time usually improves treatment quality because the session can start with full focus instead of urgency.

Consultation and treatment planning

Your first visit includes a brief conversation about your main concern, symptom pattern, sensitivity level, and what a successful session would look like for you.

This part matters because it allows service and pressure to be matched to your actual goals, not a generic template.

If you are deciding between Therapeutic Massage, CranioSacral Therapy, or Lymphatic Drainage, this conversation helps confirm the best starting point.

Clear intake also helps set realistic expectations for timeline, frequency, and what changes to track between visits.

Comfort and communication in session

You are always in control of communication. Some clients prefer quiet sessions, others prefer feedback throughout. Both are fine.

For massage, undress to your comfort level. Professional draping is always used and care is adapted to the level you choose.

For CranioSacral Therapy, wear comfortable loose clothing because that service is performed clothed.

If pressure, positioning, or pace needs to change, say so immediately. Real-time adjustments are expected and welcomed.

The best sessions are collaborative: your feedback plus practitioner technique creates a better outcome than either one alone.

Policy basics before you book

Online booking requires a 50% deposit. A minimum of 48 hours notice is required for cancellation changes.

Do not book if you have fever, flu symptoms, or another contagious illness. Rescheduling is always better than attending while sick.

If you want guidance before booking, text 810-624-0102 with your primary concern and preferred appointment times.

This is the easiest way for new clients searching massage in Grand Blanc to avoid booking the wrong service first.
