Make the first visit easy
Say what you want in one line
“Deep tissue, firm pressure, focus on lats and low back, avoid my left knee.” Specific beats polite.
Check the therapist, not the logo
In California, CAMTC certifies individual massage therapists, not businesses. Ask for the therapist’s CAMTC number and look it up with “Verify Certification” on camtc.org.
Ask what the price includes
Elements’ $109 intro rate is for Orange County residents only, and elite or master therapists and add-ons cost extra. Confirm the final price, therapist level and add-ons before you book.
