Massage Review

On Saturday I went for my long awaited/needed massage. I went to a place I found through Kaiser Permanente called Chiropractic West. CW seemed to be the "best" one I could find on KP's list of approved providers. I selected them in large part because they said they have worked with athletes and were familiar with "sports massage" (see below). They did accept my KP insurance which gave me a 15% discount. (I paid $58.75 for one hour.) Their offices were quite nice and professional. The staff was friendly and my masseuse was very kind. All that said, the massage was just okay. It wasn't great. I will go back to give it another shot, but I will also date around outside the KP network of providers. I think Kaiser Permanente could do a better job of demanding a higher level of quality and professionalism among the massage therapists they have in the network. At this point, I'm not convinced the money I save is worth the lackluster massage.
