Do I Need to Get Naked?

August 15, 2018

Short answer:  No. Absolutely not.

Long answer:  I often say, “Undress to your level of comfort.” And that’s exactly what I mean. Remove as much or as little clothing as you feel comfortable removing. I give massage the way I want to receive massage. In other words, I treat you the way I want to be treated when I’m the on the table.

Here’s more about clothing during a session:

No matter what, you’ll always be covered (draped) with a sheet and a blanket. You’ll never be left feeling exposed or chilly. When I work on an arm, I fold the sheet back and tuck it so it’s secure. (No drafts, my friends.) I follow the same protocol for the leg.

When I work on the full back, I fold the drape down at the hips. If you’re wearing underwear I’ll gently tuck the sheet around the waistband, to protect your clothes from massage oil or lotion. If you’re wearing a bra, I’ll work around it. If you’re wearing a tank top or shorts or long johns, I’ll work through it. I know plenty of very effective massage techniques that can be administered over clothing. If I feel I can’t effectively treat your issue through the clothing you’ve chosen to wear, I’ll tell you, and we’ll figure out another approach.

Please know that I’m not judging you. This massage is about you and it’s important you feel comfortable. For some people that means leaving some clothing on. For others, it means taking it all off. There is no right or wrong, this is YOUR massage and I want you to enjoy it!
