What to Expect During Your Massage and Facial at Coastal Massage & Wellness

First time visiting a spa in Jacksonville, NC? We’re here to walk you through exactly what you can expect during your massage and facial experience at Coastal Massage & Wellness.

Whether you're looking to reduce stress, rejuvenate your skin, or simply take a well-deserved break from the daily grind, our team is dedicated to making you feel relaxed, informed, and at ease from start to finish.

Before Your Appointment: How to Prepare

1. Arrive Early

We recommend arriving 10 minutes early to fill out your client intake form, ask questions, and settle in. This also gives you time to enjoy our calming environment and prepare mentally for your treatment.

2. Hydrate and Avoid Heavy Meals

Drink plenty of water before and after your treatment. Try not to eat a large meal right before your appointment to ensure maximum comfort.

What to Expect During Your Massage

Our licensed massage therapists in Jacksonville, NC are trained to deliver customized treatments that meet your individual needs—whether you’re seeking relaxation, pain relief, or something in between.

Consultation & Customization

Your therapist will begin by discussing your goals and any areas of tension or discomfort. This helps us tailor your session—Swedish, deep tissue, prenatal, or therapeutic massage—to your body’s needs.

The Massage Room

You’ll be given privacy to disrobe to your comfort level and lie under soft sheets on a heated massage table. Only the area being worked on will be uncovered, ensuring you feel secure and respected at all times.

During the Massage

Expect a quiet, peaceful environment with calming music. You can speak up anytime if you'd like more or less pressure, need to adjust the temperature, or want silence. This is your time.

What to Expect During Your Facial

Facials at Coastal Massage & Wellness combine advanced skincare techniques with holistic relaxation—because we believe radiant skin starts with total wellness.

Skin Analysis & Consultation

Your licensed esthetician will assess your skin type and concerns—such as dryness, acne, or aging. We’ll explain what products and techniques we’ll use, so you always feel informed.

The Facial Experience

Expect a deep cleanse, exfoliation, gentle extractions (if needed), a soothing mask, and a hydrating finish. Many facials include massage of the face, neck, and décolleté to boost circulation and relaxation.

We also offer advanced treatments like microneedling, dermaplaning, and anti-aging facials, each with its own tailored protocol.

Aftercare Tips

• Drink water to flush toxins and rehydrate your skin.

• Avoid makeup and heavy products for several hours post-facial.

• Take it easy—give your body and skin time to absorb the full benefits of your treatment.

• Ask about follow-up appointments or packages to keep your wellness routine on track.
