Important Information 

  • Communicate with your massage therapist before the session to give any health information updates and let the massage therapist know your expectations and reasons for the massage.

  • Allergies to oils, lotions, powders – The therapist may use oil, lotion or powders to reduce friction on your skin. If you are allergic to any oils, lotions or powders, tell your massage therapist, who can choose a substitute.

  • During the massage session, report any discomfort, whether it’s from the massage or due to any problems or distractions related to the environment, e.g., room temperature, music volume, lighting, etc.

  • Drink extra water after your massage.

Suggestions

  • Prior to your massage, please remove all jewelry and contact lenses (clients preference)

  • Pull long hair back with a clip or band.

  • In general, massage is given while you are unclothed. However, you may choose to wear undergarments or a swimsuit. Privacy – The therapist will either leave the room or otherwise provide privacy while you undress. A sheet or towel is provided for draping during the massage and the therapist will uncover only the part of your body being massaged, ensuring that modesty is respected at all times. After the massage is finished, you will be provided with privacy while dressing.

  • Certain types of massage (shiatsu, cranial sacral therapy, reflexology, Thai massage) require loose, comfortable clothing that allow for freedom of motion.

  • Feel free to ask your therapist any questions before, during, or after the session. Your therapist is a highly trained professional and will be happy to make you feel informed and comfortable.
