What the session includes
A Performance Recovery Therapy session at Studio Chique runs Duration: 60 minutes and Price: $159, and includes 10 minutes of undressing/dressing time built into the appointment. The allotted time focuses on hands-on work; arrival and departure logistics are accounted for so the full treatment time targets the body rather than changing or locker delays.
Sessions begin with a short intake to identify recent workouts, areas of fatigue, and performance goals. Therapists then concentrate on targeted muscle work and therapeutic massage techniques to address those priorities. This service is ideal for athletes, active clients, post-workout recovery, and anyone seeking support for muscle fatigue and training demands.
Techniques and targeted muscle work
The treatment combines therapeutic massage approaches with precise, targeted muscle work to relieve tension and encourage improved circulation. Therapists use pressure, sustained release, and movement-oriented placement to find tight areas and restore comfortable range of motion. The approach focuses on functional recovery rather than a single modality, adapting pressure and sequencing to each client’s muscular patterns.
Results depend on training load, rest, hydration, and consistent follow-up: a single session can reduce immediate tightness, while planned sessions support ongoing performance. Therapists will adjust intensity based on your feedback; this is not a substitute for medical care but a performance-focused complement to training and physical therapy when appropriate.
Scheduling, location, and logistics
Studio Chique is located in the Langdon neighborhood of Washington, serving nearby communities such as Hyattsville, College Park, Brookland, and Brentwood. The studio offers flexible early-morning and evening appointments to accommodate commuters using the Rhode Island Ave–Brentwood and Brookland-CUA Metro stations, and to fit parents and shift workers balancing family and work schedules.
Visitors planning a weekend recovery routine will find it convenient to combine this therapy with self-care packages before or after visits to the U.S. National Arboretum or Union Market. Plan to arrive a few minutes early; therapists will review your recent activity and any areas of concern so the session time is focused and effective.
