How to Prepare Before A Massage:

Great,Your appointment is scheduled. Now what? Before you head out the door for your treatment, here are a few recommendations:
Stay Hydrated

*Drinking plenty of water is essential for your health. It also helps prep your muscles for an optimal massage session. Hydrated muscles are softer and more workable for your therapist. Plus, the water in your muscles will help remove waste that builds up in your system. This also helps minimize soreness or the sluggishness you might feel after your service.

*Show Up Fresh & Clean

Be sure to come in fresh and clean before your appointment. You don’t want any sweat, chlorine or grime rubbed into your skin. Plus, it’s just the polite thing to do for your massage therapist. If you have time, a nice, warm shower can help relax your mind and your muscles before your treatment.

*Get Comfortable

No need to get dressed up before a massage. Wearing something loose, soft and comfortable to prepare for total relaxation post-massage.

*Leave Jewelry At Home

You’ll be asked to remove necklaces, bracelets, and long earrings before most spa and med spa treatments, so best to leave them at home.

*Eating Before A Massage

To eat or not to eat? therapists recommend eating a light meal or coming in on an empty stomach prior to your massage. Eating too much too close to your service can leave you feeling too bloated on the table. It’s also best to avoid drinking alcohol or limiting the amount of alcohol you consume prior to your appointment.

*Set An Intention For Your Massage

Are you suffering from aches and pains? Do you just want a little luxe pampering? It’s up to you! Your massage therapist will be happy to help you get the relaxation, pain relief, or pampering (or all three!) you deserve.
If it’s your first massage we will fill out an intake form with your medical history and treatment preferences before your massage.

*Make It Your Massage

Shortly before the massage, you’ll want to have a good discussion with your massage therapist. Start by mentioning any existing wounds. If you have any cuts or abrasions, keep them covered up.

If you have any medical conditions that could impact your massage, review this before you get on the massage table so your massage therapist can curate the right experience for you.
