Frequently Asked Questions
What types of massage services do I offer at my Richmond Heights location?
I offer Swedish massage, deep tissue massage, hot stone massage, and relaxation massage at my Richmond Heights, MO location. Each style addresses different needs - Swedish massage uses lighter pressure for general relaxation, while deep tissue targets muscle tension and knots. I can help you choose the right approach for your goals when you contact me.
What are my business hours and when can I schedule an appointment?
I'm open Monday through Thursday, 12 PM - 8 PM, Saturday 12 PM - 8 PM. I'm closed Friday and Sunday. I work by appointment only, so reach out to schedule a time that works for you.
Do I accept walk-in clients or do I require appointments?
I require appointments for all massage sessions. This ensures I have dedicated time for your care and can give you my full attention. Contact me to book a slot that fits your schedule.
What should I expect during my first visit to Kneaded This by Candice Krenning?
On your first visit, I'll discuss your health history, any areas of pain or tension, and what you hope to achieve from the massage. This helps me tailor the session to your needs. Then I'll guide you through a relaxing, personalized massage experience designed just for you.
What areas of St. Louis does my massage therapy practice serve?
I serve the St. Louis, MO area and surrounding regions. I'm based in Richmond Heights and available for in-person sessions. Get in touch to confirm coverage for your specific location.
How does a Swedish massage differ from a deep tissue massage?
Swedish massage uses long, flowing strokes with lighter pressure to ease tension and promote relaxation. Deep tissue massage applies firmer pressure to reach deeper muscle layers and release chronic tightness. Choose Swedish if you want to unwind, or deep tissue if you have stubborn muscle knots or soreness.
What is a hot stone massage and what are its benefits?
A hot stone massage is when I use smooth, heated stones placed on your body to warm muscles and improve circulation. The heat helps muscles relax deeper, reduces tension, and creates a soothing, meditative experience. It's especially helpful if you carry stress in your neck, shoulders, or back.
Am I able to book a relaxation massage session on weekends?
Yes, I offer relaxation massage on Saturday from 12 PM - 8 PM. I'm closed Sunday, so Saturday is your weekend option. Contact me to schedule your appointment.
What should I wear or bring with me when I come in for my appointment?
Wear comfortable, loose clothing that's easy to remove. I'll provide a private space and draping so you stay covered during the massage. Bring your health history if it's your first visit, and arrive a few minutes early to settle in.
How long does a typical massage session last?
Session length varies based on what you book and your needs. Contact me to discuss duration options and find the best fit for your schedule and goals.
Can I reschedule or cancel my appointment if my plans change?
I understand that plans change. Reach out as soon as possible if you need to reschedule or cancel your appointment so I can adjust my schedule and help another client.
How do I get in touch to schedule my first massage appointment?
Contact me directly to book your first session at Kneaded This by Candice Krenning in Richmond Heights. I'll work with you to find a time that fits your schedule and discuss which massage style suits your needs best.
