how to get a massage

I’m adapting this from something I found on The Marsh’s website.  I hope it’s helpful to you!

HOW TO GET A BODYWORK SESSION:

  1. To ensure that your experience is as fulfilling as possible, please arrive on time.
  2. Help yourself relax through deep, regular breathing, emphasizing the exhalation and releasing tension areas.
  3. As a guest, our wish is that you always be comfortable. During your Massage you will remain fully draped with a sheet except for the areas being massaged.  In a Shiatsu, Reiki, or Thai Bodywork session, you should wear comfy clothes, as the sessions are clothes-on.
  4. Allow the therapist to move your limbs into whatever position required— just relax and enjoy your session.
  5. Closing your eyes during the massage helps focus your attention ourtof the head and into the body.  See with your sense of touch.
  6. Let the therapist know if anything feels uncomfortable or if you want more or less pressure. If you are troubled by tension in a specific area, please tell the therapist.
  7. If the music annoys you—let your therapist know!  Good massage music can be hard to find.
  8. If you are cold or too warm—let your therapist know that, too.

I hope you find this helpful.  We’ll see you in for a session SOON!
