Session structure and focus
The session begins with a brief intake to identify current pain points, recent matches, and any pre-existing concerns. Therapists then prioritize areas reported by the client—shoulders, forearms, lower back and hips are common—so the time is spent on what will most directly affect return-to-play comfort and movement.
Throughout the 90 MINUTES, therapists adjust pressure and pacing to your feedback. Review feedback from other clients shows therapists often work deeply on knots and tight bands, use careful stretching where helpful, and maintain privacy and client comfort in clean, welcoming rooms in Montrose.
Common areas we address
Tennis players typically need focused work on the shoulder girdle, forearms and wrists, the upper and lower back, hips and calves. The massage emphasizes muscular release and joint mobility strategies that experienced players report help with recurring tightness and localized pain after frequent play.
Demand for this service increases in warm months when local play rises; May, June, and July are busiest. Houston’s hot, humid climate can contribute to fatigue and tighter muscles, so clients often schedule regular sessions during the season for maintenance and faster recovery.
Aftercare, follow-ups, and planning
Expect some immediate relief and possibly mild, short-lived soreness after targeted deep work; hydration, gentle movement, and planned rest usually help. Many clients choose a follow-up session based on their activity level; scheduling regular maintenance is a practical choice for frequent players looking to manage recurring tension.
This 90 MINUTES service is offered for $135. It’s easy to combine an appointment with nearby Montrose activities—restaurants, galleries, and parks—because My Spa Joy is centrally located near the Menil Collection and Montrose Boulevard, convenient for Houston players coming from inside the Inner Loop.
