QUESTIONS

Gogo’s Corner is located in Park Forest, Illinois and offers mobile massage throughout the south suburbs and surrounding Chicagoland areas. We travel based on location, so contact us to confirm whether we can serve your area.

Indeed. Mobile massage is the central service that Gogo's Corner provides. I bring the massage to your home, hotel, or other location that is allowed, and you can rest in the comfort and privacy of your own space, does not have to travel after the massage.

I offer mobile massage services within a 40-mile radius of Park Forest, Illinois. I may be able to travel outside of that area, depending on travel requirements and appointment scheduling. If you are located outside my usual service area or in a different state, I’ll be happy to hear from you. I travel for massage appointments, if travel and accommodation expenses are covered, and scheduling is flexible.

Gogo's Corner provides Signature Therapeutic Massage, Deep Tissue Massage, Sports Massage, Hot Stone Massage, Salt Stone Massage and Acupressure. Your therapist will customize each session to target muscle tension, reduce stress, improve mobility or promote your general health. Please note that during Hot Stone Massage, we may use a variety of hot stones, Himalayan salt stones, bamboo massage tools, or a combination of the above, depending on the needs and objectives of your session.

All regular Gogo's Corner mobile massage sessions are offered for 90 minutes. I think quality bodywork sessions shouldn't be hurried. That way, you have time for a quick consult, concentrated therapy, and a custom, relaxing experience.90 minutes is my standard, but I do offer custom sessions for special cases such as postoperative care, minors, or extended treatment sessions. Call Gogo's Corner to discuss your particular needs.

No. I bring everything needed for your session. This includes your massage table, fresh linens, face cradle cover, oils, lotions, bolsters and any tools you use during your session, like hot stones, Himalayan salt stones, bamboo massage tools, and cupping, if appropriate. All I need is a comfortable area where I can set up and move around.

Please provide a clean, quiet area that is large enough for me to set up my massage table and move around it comfortably during your session. The space should be free of obstacles such as chairs, small tables, toys, or other items that may interfere with treatment. If you have pets, please keep them in another room for everyone's safety and comfort.

Shower whenever possible before your appointment. Clean skin will make for a better massage, and lotions and oils will be more comfortable to apply on clean skin. Sorry, but no lotions, oils or perfumes need to be applied beforehand, just be relaxed, hydrated, and I'll take it from there.

Wear clothing you can put on and take off without difficulty. Your massage will be properly draped at all times, except for the area being worked on, for added privacy and comfort. Getting there a few minutes early gives you some time to settle in before your massage.

During your first appointment, we will discuss your massage goals, medical history, pain points, and areas of discomfort. Based on this information and your comfort level, the massage will be tailored to your individual body and needs. Stretching and/or acupressure may also be utilized as appropriate.

Deep Tissue Massage employs gently slower, firmer pressure to move into deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue, ideal for chronic tension and difficult knots. Signature Therapeutic Massage is a blend of techniques aimed at facilitating relaxation, circulation, and addressing each client's unique needs.

Sure. Sports Massage isn't only beneficial for athletes. It is also a great option for anyone experiencing muscle tightness, repetitive work motions, restricted mobility or daily wear and tear. These techniques can help improve flexibility, ease soreness, and promote recovery.

Acupressure involves applying light, concentrated pressure to specific points throughout the body to promote balance and relieve tension. While massage focuses on the body's muscles and soft tissues, acupressure targets pressure points and can be combined with massage for a holistic experience.

Yes. Massage and meditation go so well together. Doing them together helps soften the body and the mind and can make you still and at ease.

Yes. Gogo's Corner is a place where you can find private and group meditation sessions aimed at calming the mind, decreasing stress, promoting mindfulness, and finding time for relaxation and reflection.

As part of an overall health and wellness routine, I suggest most people get a massage at least once a month. Our bodies need nutritious food, proper hydration, movement, and rest. A regular massage program can help support your muscles, reduce stress, increase mobility, and promote overall health and well-being. If you’re dealing with chronic pain, injury recovery, athletic training, or high levels of physical stress, you may benefit from more frequent sessions. I’ll work with you to develop a schedule that’s right for you and your health goals.

No. Newcomers are more than welcome. We’re seeing many clients arrive for a single massage or meditation session before deciding to incorporate regular wellness treatments into their self-care regimen.

Yes. My practice is primarily oriented towards women, but I do not practice solely for men.

As an independent massage therapist, I do not provide couples massages with two clients at the same time, but I am available to provide two back-to-back individual massages for couples, family and friends who would like massages in one day.
