People often wonder what they should wear for a massage, it can be confusing with so many different types and style of massage available to know what is expected. Your massage therapist should talk this through with you before your treatment… let’s explore this common question now.
For any massage with me, you undress to your level of comfort. Its helps if you remove any jewellery, especially necklaces and bracelets. I can work through light clothing for massages such as Indian head, but if you have booked a full body massage, it’s best if you undress down to your underwear (although please always keep your knickers on!) If you would like to keep a bra on for comfort, please do, pregnant and breastfeeding mums in particular might feel more comfortable having that bit of extra support. Please be aware that if you are having a back massage and want to keep your bra on, one with a clasp is best so that I can un-clip the bra to be able to massage your full back, I’ll then do it back up before moving onto the next body part.
Once all the equipment is set up and ready for you I will leave the room briefly in order for you to get undressed and comfortable on the massage couch. You will have cosy blankets covering you at all times during your massage, to protect your modesty and keep you warm and comfortable. I only uncover the part of your body that I am working on.
After the massage I will leave you covered with blankets on the massage couch while I step out of the room and give you a few minutes privacy to get up and dressed. It’s nice if you can get back into something comfy after a massage.
If you have opted for your massage at home, the beauty is that you don’t have to get dressed to go out to an appointment, only to get undressed again. Please know that I won’t bat an eyelid if your answer the door to me in your PJs or dressing gown!
