It is important that your are comfortable during the massage and that you know your options. In a standard massage session, you will be draped with a sheet. You may choose to be totally or partially unclothed under the drape. As each part of the body is being massaged, it is uncovered. Genitals and women's breasts will be covered at all times and will not be touched.
Many people prefer to wear their undergarments during the massage.
If you have other areas you would not like touched, please let the therapist know prior to the start of the massage. Please inform the therapist of any known allergies that you have. Many lotions contain almond extracts, vitamin E or other minerals. Whether you feel any pain during a massage depends on many factors, including your physical condition, the reason for the massage, your pain tolerance and the therapist's technique. Discuss this before the massage, and give feedback to the therapist during the session.
