How to Get Ready for Your First Massage
Being your first day to carry out a massage, you would be tensed since you do not know where to start or how to do it right. Your desire to have that customer come back to your spa and to help you achieve this, here are tips to help you prepare for the session:

• Get the massage room ready: this will involve cleaning the room and making it warm, and also getting everything you will need ready. If everything is in place, you will be more relaxed and by the time the customer arrives, all the tension will be gone.
• Be physically prepared: If you feel hungry, make sure you eat before the clients arrive. Visit the bathroom too so that you will not have to excuse yourself in the middle of the massage session. You can play some cool music if it will help you get relaxed.
• Be friendly and professional at the same time:  When the client comes in, make a formal introduction and ask the client how he is, whether he has any concerns regarding the session and as the conversation proceeds, you will both be more relaxed and at ease with each other. You will also have won the trust of your client.
• Ask questions: to be sure that everything is going on well, engage your client by asking him whether you are doing it right or whether he wants you to be harder or soften your touch. If he is okay, you will proceed and if he raises any concerns, attend to them and everything will turn out alright.

There is always a first time and it is okay to feel tensed but it will get better with time. Confidence will be gained as you get more experienced and advanced in your skills. When you are successful in your first massage, you will have an easier time with your next client.
