- We work on the glutes over the sheet using compression and kneading techniques.
- We work on the abdomen over the sheet or by using a towel to cover the breasts while the abdomen is exposed.
- Target areas services are not a full body massage.
Do I have to get completely undressed?
It is entirely up to you what you want to wear. Full body massages are generally performed with the client unclothed (please keep undergarments on), target area sessions with the client partially unclothed, and sports massage or chair massages with the client fully clothed. You should only undress to your level of comfort.
If you choose to undress, you will be properly draped during the entire session.

Are there any medical conditions that would make massage or bodywork inadvisable?
Yes. It is very important that you complete the intake forms honestly and inform the practitioner of any health problems or medications you are taking. If you are under a doctor's care, it is strongly advised that you receive a written recommendation for massage or bodywork prior to any session. Certain medical conditions require written clearance from your doctor prior to receiving services.
