Hey Everyone! Tasha here. This will be a continuation of the previous post discussing common questions or concerns about the massage environment and other helpful information. Let's jump right in!
Q: Should I talk during the massage?
A: There will be some level of communication that does need to happen. This would include letting the therapist know if the pressure, table heat, music volume, or other controllable aspects to the service are at the level that works for you. They also may need to ask for specific feedback for a stretch or certain treatment to make sure it is achieving the right results. However, you are not required or expected to chit chat with your massage therapist the entire time. You are in charge of the level of discussion and can at any time request that it end or start it back up. Also, be aware that it can be uncomfortable or even inappropriate to ask your massage therapist personal questions and they can choose not to answer or even to end the session early if they feel harassed in any way.
Q: What if I forgot or don't have time to shave?
A: Nothing to worry about at all! Shaving or not shaving does not affect the massage or bother the massage therapist in any way. Once the lotion or oil is applied the level of hair in an area is not an issue. Massage therapists work on all types of bodies- short or tall, male or female, shaved or unshaved. Feel free to let go of the stress and enjoy your treatment!

Hey Everyone! Tasha here. I find that there seems to be a bit of mystery about the massage environment for the general public. I guess it may be because of the privacy involved in the situation. This can make it a little overwhelming or nerve wracking for someone who is coming in for their first massage ever or for someone getting a massage at a new location they haven't been to before. I thought I might answer a few commonly asked questions to hopefully bring some comfort and guidance to people in those categories.
