First time getting a massage?

Here’s what you can expect!

Going In

The LMT will take you to a room, where you can ask about their typical routine, or they may just walk you through their massage application. Here is where you can let them know about any areas you want to avoid, or focus on, and any sensitive areas they should be aware of. The LMT will leave the room to let you undress and get on the table. Most LMTs will probably ask you to remove everything except underwear bottoms. HOWEVER, if you are uncomfortable with that, you can wear as much or as little clothing as you like.

Draping

While you're on the table, you will have sufficient draping over you, in other words, a sheet/blanket/towel that makes you feel comfortable, and not overexposed. The drape is meant to cover everything the LMT is not working on. It is for your modesty AND ours. But if at any point, you feel uncomfortable or exposed, speak up!


Feedback is Encouraged!

Feedback is so important. If you are uncomfortable for any reason - the pressure, the area we are working on, the temperature, the music, the talking, anything - please speak up. You won't hurt our feelings, I promise. It's our job to make you as comfortable as possible.

Water Water Water

We say it all the time - hydrate! The best time to do that is right after your massage when your circulation has been increased, and the body is flushing out metabolic waste. This could aid in preventing soreness afterwards. If you have any questions about how you feel after your massage, please contact us.
