Frequently Asked Questions — Massage in Hove
Is there parking near the Hove clinic on St Heliers Ave?
Parking on St Heliers Ave and the surrounding streets in Hove is mostly on-street, and availability can vary depending on the time of day.
What happens at my first appointment at Infinity Massage Therapy Brighton?
Your first appointment starts with a short consultation, where your therapist asks about your goals, any areas of tension or discomfort, and your relevant health history. This helps them plan the right approach and pressure for your session. You’ll then be asked to undress to your level of comfort, and treatment begins once you’re settled and ready.
How long are massage sessions at the Hove clinic?
Sessions at our Hove clinic are available in 30, 60 and 90-minute durations across all four treatments — sports, deep tissue, relaxation, and back, neck and shoulders massage. Your therapist can advise on the best length for your first visit if you’re not sure.
Which massage treatment is right for me?
It depends on what you’re dealing with. Sports massage suits training-related tension and recovery, deep tissue massage is better for chronic tightness or old injuries, relaxation massage is a gentler full-body option for general stress, and back, neck and shoulders massage targets tension from desk work or posture. If you’re unsure, your therapist can recommend an approach during your consultation.
Do I need to book in advance for the Hove clinic?
We’d recommend booking ahead where possible, as availability can be limited, particularly at popular times.
What should I wear to a massage appointment?
There’s no need to bring anything special — you’ll be asked to undress to whatever level you’re comfortable with, and you’ll be covered with a towel or sheet throughout the session except for the area being treated. Loose, comfortable clothing is a good idea for before and after your appointment.
Can I get a massage at the Hove clinic if I have an injury or health condition?
Many injuries and health conditions are suitable for massage, but some need medical clearance first. Let your therapist know about any injuries, surgeries, or ongoing conditions when you book, so they can plan your session safely.
Is the Hove clinic easy to get to from Brighton?
Our Hove clinic is inside Brighton & Hove Fitness Club on St Heliers Ave, BN3, a short distance from Brighton along the coast. If Duke Street in Brighton is more convenient for you, the same treatments are available at our Brighton studio too.
