How Much Clothing Do I Actually Need to remove for my Massage? FAQ part 2

I've had many first-time clients ask me about what they should wear (or not wear) during their massage. The short answer is that it's best to take off as much as you feel comfortable.

First of all, the point of being unclothed is for the massage therapist (me) to be able to interact with your skin to affect the tissues directly under it. Plus, it's far more difficult to do calming long strokes along a client's back if that person is still wearing a shirt and/or a bra. I'm trained to be professional. That means that there is no judgment about how the body on my table looks. I don't care about size, weird marks or hair. In fact, I (and many other massage therapists) usually have my eyes closed or I'm staring at the wall so that I'm not distracted from what my fingers are feeling, so I'm not even looking at you most of the time! 

It's important to understand that, as a professional, I will always keep you covered. The only parts of you that will be uncovered while you are on my table are your head (so you can breath) and the part(s) of the body that I'm working. Your genitals and breast tissue will never, ever, ever, ever be exposed. I use the thick sheets that I have on my table to cover you, and I'm also happy to provide a blanket if you get cold.
