First Visit
1. Meet and Greet
Once you arrive at Harmony Massage, therapist will ask you to fill out a Registration and Information Form and a quick survey. The Registration Form is where you record any medical history, past/present injuries and other physical conditions we should be made aware of. Therapist will review the Form with you and inquire about the reason(s) you are coming in for a massage, your current physical condition and any specific areas in which you are experiencing pain or would like to address during your massage.
I don't count this part of our meeting to the massage time. This is the time to prepare you and me to the massage as safely and comfortable as it possible. I understand that some people need to more time to prepare to the massage, because feel pain or are just tired, so if you booked 30 minutes of massage you will get it.
2. Starting Your Session
Massage therapist will then take you to a peaceful, treatment room where a comfortable massage table dressed with a warming blanket and crisp clean sheets awaits. A small shelf for your personal belongings and a chair are also provided for your use. Massage therapist will leave the room and wait outside while you disrobe to your level of comfort. The massage etiquette varies for clients. Once disrobed, you will lie on the massage table, under the top sheet. Massage therapist will give you a few minutes for this process and will knock on the door to ask if you are ready before entering your room.
You will always be draped with the top sheet during your massage session. The etiquette your massage therapist will follow is to only uncover the part of the body they are working on, ensuring that your modesty is respected at all times.
You can expect a tranquil and comfortable environment during your massage. There will be relaxing music playing, unless you request otherwise, and the room should be quiet, with no outside distractions. Some people like to talk during a massage, Some prefer to relax without conversation. Do what feels best. We'll follow your lead.
3. During Your Massage
Before beginning the session, your therapist will ask you to alert them if, at any time during the session, a technique or stroke they are using is uncomfortable. Depending on your specific needs or requests, your massage therapist will either perform a customized full-body massage (for general relaxation and stress reduction) or focus on the specific parts of your body that you have requested. Harmony Massage uses only the highest quality, pure and natural oils for your massage.
This is your customized massage. If you have feedback on pressure, room temperature, lighting… let us know.
4. Ensuring Your Harmony
Once your massage therapy session is complete, your therapist will leave the room so you may re-dress. But if you need to help to get up from the massage table, let us know and therapist will help you.
Don't pick up to fast because you may feel dizzy !!!
Hydrate: Therapist will leave bottle of water for you, so please drink it. Water flushes out the minerals that were released during your massage while rehydrating your muscles and reducing potential soreness.
After session, you don't have to leave of our salon. We will be pleased to host you in the waiting area, where you can drink water or tea, continuing your rest and unwind.
We look forward to seeing you for your first visit. If you have any questions about the etiquette during a massage, I will be happy to answer them for you.
