If you\u2019re outlaying on a massage<\/a> to soothe maxed out muscles and send you to your happy (floaty) place, you\u2019ll want to make the most of it.

\n

How should you prepare before a massage appointment?<\/h3>\n

Arriving relaxed and knowing what to expect will help you enjoy your massage more. Take time to learn about your chosen treatment and communicate your preferences with your masseuse before and during the session.<\/div>\n

\n

Can you eat before going for a massage?<\/h3>\n

It’s best to avoid eating for about two hours before your massage. Eating too close to your appointment or arriving hungry can make the experience less comfortable, so have a light meal and allow time for digestion beforehand.<\/div>\n

\n

What should you do to get ready for a full body massage?<\/h3>\n

Take a shower and remove unwanted hair before your appointment for a more comfortable experience. This reduces friction and helps your masseuse work more effectively on areas like arms, legs, back and feet.<\/div>\n

\n

Can you ask to change your massage treatment?<\/h3>\n

Yes, you can request a different type of massage if the one booked isn\u2019t what you want. Let your masseuse know your needs before or during the session, as most will happily adapt to ensure you feel comfortable.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Know what you’re having. Don’t wait until your masseuse is cracking vertebrae to whisper that you thought you’d booked something more relaxing. If it doesn’t sound like something you’d like, ask for something different. That applies during your massage too – don’t endure something you’re not enjoying.

Since you’re having a massage, it must be a ‘treat yo’self’ day but try to steer clear of Shake Shack before your massage. That said, it’s a good idea to eat something to stave off a grumbly stomach. For maximum comfort – and to cover all massage-related digestion eventualities – it’s best to factor in two food-free hours before your appointment.<\/p>\n","video_content":"","block_picture":31160},{"block_title":"Think head to toe","block_content":"

Sounds obvious, but if you’re having a full body massage that means – you got it! – arms, legs, back and feet. Your masseuse will deal with knots in places you didn’t even know you had them. Top tip for the full body treatment is, and we’ll admit it sounds obvious, but...take a shower and remove any unwanted hair. Why? The less friction the better.<\/p>\n","video_content":"","block_picture":31161}]},"yoast_head":"\nMassage Preparation: Complete Guide for Best Results | Treatwell<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Discover how to prepare for your massage, from choosing the right treatment and meal timing to pre-appointment grooming.
