Tips for Preparing for your First Massage
There is nothing like a professional massage to make you utterly relaxed and rejuvenated. Despite its long list of apparent benefits, it is unnerving for many to walk into a massage parlor. The mere idea of exposing your skin from above acceptable public viewing; having a stranger look at your body secrets like extra flab around the belly or a birthmark around the thigh etc. can be pretty unnerving. Even the idea of a stranger touching you is enough to leave goosebumps. The same holds true for all many people. However, the reality is entirely different. Here we would walk through some tips that would help you beat the self-consciousness and anxiety and revel in the sublime pleasure of a massage.
Before arriving
The most important thing that you need to do before a massage session is to relax. It is important to remember that the entire exercise is meant for your relaxation and enjoyment. Moreover, the masseur is a professional who is least bothered about any extra flab or marks or moles on your body. He aims to provide you with ultimate pleasure and not to point out any flaws in your body. You can have a light but not a heavy meal before a massage. You should ideally have a shower as well before a massage session. Listening to music, watching a movie, reading a book etc. are all activities which will help you unwind and be in a more positive mood for a massage.
Upon arrival
It is always advisable to arrive at least half an hour early to your appointment. Once you arrive there, you will be given a form to fill out where you need to disclose your physical condition, medical history or any other injuries and relevant details. You would then be introduced to your masseur who would review the form with you. It is at this time that you can ask your masseur any queries that you have and set proper expectations for the level of nudity you are comfortable with or any other personal concerns. You should also disclose any information about any pain areas that would like to pay special attention to or avoid. You should also relay information about any oil or fragrance allergies etc. or even your favorite aroma. The massage therapist will also update you on what to expect during the massage session.
Preparing for the massage
It is essential to hydrate yourself well before a massage session. Thus, you must drink a glass or two of water before the massage. The masseur will not show you to your room; give you the robe, all instructions and leave you in peace. You can then shed the clothes to the level decided and get under the sheet of the massage bed. Ideally, you should keep wearing your undergarments. The massage session would then initiate. We are sure within few minutes you would realize just how baseless your fears were and get drowned in enjoying your massage completely.
Post massage
When the massage is over, the therapist will leave you again in peace to dress back. You can even take a shower if you desire. Once you are ready, you can get back to the reception where you will be given a glass of water or herbal tea to sip.
Wrapping up
Now that the session is over, you can walk out reveling in the pleasure of an amazing experience. However, it shows your fine etiquette if you voice your thanks and appreciate the masseur for his services. You should also ideally leave a gratuity for the exemplary service.
Once the initial fears are laid to rest and the magical doors have been opened, you are bound to return to it every so often.
