On your first visit, you will complete a brief intake form that asks questions about your medical history and lifestyle. This informs the therapist if there is an area of the body that may need special attention or in the case of certain medical conditions where massage should not be given.
You will be shown to the treatment room and allowed to disrobe in private. In most cases, all clothing is removed before treatment begins. Some clients prefer to leave underwear on, and that is ultimately the decision of the client. Massage therapy is most effective when the areas being treated are done with direct contact to the skin and also eliminates the possibility of oil stains to undergarments. There will be clean sheets and towels waiting for you. Lay on the sheet and cover your self with the body towel. You will be fully draped at all times. The draping will be adjusted to uncover only the areas of the body that are receiving treatment at the time. Your modesty and privacy are respected at all times.
