Tips In Making Clients Comfortable While Having Massage Therapy

By Frank Ward


Massages include working or acting on body with pressure and common techniques used are a device, feet, forearm, knees, elbows, fingers and hands. Their purpose is usually for treating stress or pain while the clients lie on table, sit on char or on floor mats. Amateur settings normally use any general surfaces such as bed or floor.

People usually get this service to help themselves be relaxed and relieve toxins, pressure and tension your body is building up. There are many massage therapy Portland professionals available for them to experience a relaxing time. If you are a professional and want your clients to come back again then learn to make them at ease with these tips.

Most customers will fall asleep peacefully while in session but may notice some drool pooling up when they wake up so be wary of these things. Offer them with tissue tactfully to help relieve the feelings of embarrassment or awkwardness. Change the sheets then clean the area before a new massage in ensuring the place is peaceful, sanitized and safe.

They would like to get themselves relaxed and meditate during these sessions so tell them that doing so is okay. But some types of therapy, like deep tissue and sports massages, need more feedback because deeper muscle layers are being worked on. They might feel you would be insulted if they give feedback so advise them to let you know to make them comfortable more.

Keep your breath always fresh because your client would know what food you ate if precautions are not properly taken after eating. You might have enjoyed it but this will make a situation uncomfortable when they could smell them during the session. Make sure your teeth are brushed or some breath mints are taken before the next therapy.

Customers have various sizes and body shapes and therapists have seen all of them usually making you forget that they can feel unconscious as well. People get insecure about their scarring, excessive hair, weight, toes, acne and feet so suggest techniques done with clothing on still. Doing this with their first session makes them feel comfortable while they are massaged.

Customers mostly prefer female therapists with others either preferring none or male therapists but this should not hinder the desire of men to enter this profession. More than eighty percent of the therapists are females so males could take this chance in building a successful practice. And when you wear shoes with open toes then have them manicured to avoid distracting your client.

Customers could decide if they prefer wearing an underwear still when getting massaged or be nude completely. Although if their problems areas are their groin, buttocks, hips or lower back, suggest to them that tight underwear can hinder the therapy at times. Wearing thong or briefs for women and men respectively is a better alternative.

You must keep your clients happy, comfortable, and relaxed during the treatment with these tips while giving massages being helpful. Be on time and inform them if ever you will be late. This helps to increase your referrals, repeat customers and tips.
