About this listing

Arcana is a massage practice in Portland, Maine, the kind of place built around the treatment table rather than a spa menu: typically 50, 80 or 110 minute sessions of Swedish, deep tissue, sports or prenatal work. Two questions are worth asking when you book. Ask which modality the therapist actually specializes in, because "deep tissue" means very different things from one practitioner to the next. And ask what the pressure conversation looks like: a good therapist checks in early and adjusts, rather than working to a fixed script.

Licensed massage therapists and dedicated massage studios. Swedish, deep tissue, sports, prenatal and trigger point work, usually booked as a 50 or 80 minute session on a table.

Before you book

Ask what the therapist actually specializes in. "Deep tissue" is a word every studio uses and every therapist means something different by.
Say what you want out of the hour when you book, not on the table. Relaxation and a specific shoulder problem are two different appointments.
Ask whether the price you were quoted is for the table time or the appointment. A "60 minute massage" is sometimes 50 minutes of hands-on work.

Licensing in Maine

Massage therapists here are licensed by the Maine Office of Professional and Occupational Regulation. Ask for a license number, then check it.
