SHOULD I TALK
DURING A MASSAGE?
Sure, if you’d like to talk, go right ahead.
The important thing to remember is that this treatment is all about you relaxing and enjoying the experience.
Many therapists discourage talking in hopes that you will relax,
Let your mind float free and enter a state of massage bliss.
In many instances, people may feel more relaxed starting off talking, and as the massage progresses, enter quiet states of relaxation.
The important issue here is that there are times when you need to speak up.
If the therapist is doing anything to make you uncomfortable, you should let her/him know immediately.
Also, let them know if you get too warm or too cold, if the room is too bright, or if the pressure needs to be changed (lighter or deeper).
If something is not working for you – speak up!
It’s OK!
MOST FREQUENTLY ASKED
QUESTION IN A MASSAGE:
"DO I NEED TO GET NAKED?"
Short answer
No. Absolutely not.
Long answer
Here’s what you need to know about clothing during a session:
First, no matter what, you’ll always be covered (draped) with a sheet and a blanket. You’ll never be left feeling exposed or chilly.
When I work on an arm, I fold the sheet back and tuck it under your arm so it’s secure. (No drafts, my friends.)
I follow the same protocol for the leg.
When we work on the full back, drape is folded down at the hips. If you’re wearing underwear, We sometimes will gently tuck the sheet around the waistband, to protect your clothes from massage oil.
If you’re wearing a bra, we’ll work around it.
If you’re wearing a tank top or booty shorts or long johns, we’ll work through it.
We know plenty of very effective massage techniques that can be administered over clothing. If we feel we can’t effectively treat your issue through the clothing you’ve chosen to wear, We’ll tell you and we’ll figure out another approach.
Please know that we don’t care, and are not judging you. This massage is about you and it’s important you feel comfortable. For some people that means leaving some clothing on. For others, it means taking it all off. There is no right or wrong, this is your massage.
Enjoy your next massage!
