The Truth About Finding the Best Spa In Heber and Midway (Most People Get This Wrong)

If you are not getting the results, you want out of your massage read this!

Looking for the right massage might be a little more challenging than you might think. The options at A Good Spa Day are Swedish, Deep Tissue Massage, Sports Massage or Hot Stone Massage. (These can all be done in a couple’s massage session as well.) 

Which massage to schedule or getting the results you want is easy just ask yourself what do you want the results to be.  If you are stressed and overwhelmed maybe your body needs to just relax, rest your nervous system, improve circulation and blood flow. Choosing a Swedish or relaxing modality might be most beneficial to you at the time.  Adding Hot Stones, CBD massage oil or Aromatherapy is also a great option for deeper relaxation.  You can choose from 60,75- or 90-minute times. 

If you work out regularly, have chronic pain or a pulled muscle or general soreness the Therapeutic modalities are what you are looking for with the help of muscle rubs, CBD massage oil and hot stones.  These types of massage use techniques like cupping, scrapping, trigger point or stretching can get deep into the muscles and work the tension and flush out toxins in the area that are causing the pain.  Your body may not be able to accept this kind of work if you are not accustomed to getting massages or working your muscles like you would in a workout this may be something that takes a few massage sessions to be most effective. This is also where communication between you and the therapists is necessary for you to get the benefits of a custom massage. 

One of the biggest differences between an average massage and one that actually delivers results comes down to how you schedule it. Timing, consistency, and communication all play a role in how effective your session will be. The options are 30 minutes, which is enough time to do neck and shoulders. This is ok if you are on a tight budget or tight on time or only feel like you need a little more in this one area. This short amount of time and is still very beneficial. The other choices are 60 or 75 minutes which is enough time to do a full body massage (Back, neck, legs, arms, hands, feet, face) and work on a specific area if you have more than one area that needs deeper work then a 75 or 90 minute massage is what you are looking for. This allows the therapist to be thorough for maximum benefits and is what we strive for in our custom massages.  

If you are dealing with soreness from skiing, workouts, or daily stress around Heber or Midway, try to schedule your massage within 24–48 hours of when the discomfort starts. This is when your muscles are most responsive, and you can prevent tension from settling in deeper. Waiting too long often means it takes more pressure and more sessions to get the same results.

Consistency also matters more than most people think. One massage can absolutely help, but if you are dealing with chronic tightness or pain, spacing sessions every 2–4 weeks can create lasting improvement instead of temporary relief. Your body responds better when it knows what to expect.

Finally, don’t underestimate the importance of speaking up during your session. Let your therapist know what feels right, what needs more attention, and if anything feels too intense. A customized massage is always more effective than a routine one. Taking these small steps when scheduling can turn a good massage into one that actually changes how your body feels for days after.

So, if you are looking for results, either therapeutic or relaxing in your massage and ready to do something about it now is the time. Do not wait to feel better.
