The therapist should bring fresh linens for each client and wash hands before and after the session. Tables need intact vinyl or leather covering without tears. Oils should come in sealed containers and be unscented or lightly scented. A clean face cradle cover is mandatory and replaced for every appointment.
Choose a quiet room with at least 2 metres by 3 metres of clear floor space for the table. Close windows and turn off loud devices 10 to 15 minutes before arrival. Set room temperature between 22 and 25 degrees Celsius. Provide two clean towels, access to a sink, and a low stool if available.
Red flags include the therapist avoiding a health intake, no hand washing before contact, or excessive pressure causing sharp pain. Watch for slipping on the table, oils left on the floor, and refusal to adjust position. A trained therapist welcomes questions and explains each stroke before applying it.
Swedish massage uses long gliding strokes and light to medium pressure for relaxation. Deep tissue applies slower strokes with firm pressure reaching the 3 to 5 mm muscle layers. Sports massage focuses on overused muscle groups before or after activity. Prenatal massage uses side-lying positioning and modified pressure for pregnant clients.
Deep tissue pressure is not recommended within 72 hours of acute injury or muscle strain. Clients on blood thinners should avoid strong pressure due to bruising risk. Recent surgery sites need clearance from the surgeon, usually after stitches are out and swelling is gone. Always share your full medical history with the therapist.
Speak up if pressure is too deep or too light within the first 10 minutes. Point to the exact area needing more attention instead of describing pain vaguely. Tell the therapist if the room is too cold or the music too loud. Good therapists welcome real time feedback and adjust without taking it personally.
A typical home session lasts 50 to 90 minutes, with 60 minutes being the most common. Shorter 30-minute sessions focus on one body area, while 90-minute sessions cover full body plus extra stretching. First appointments often run 15 minutes longer due to the intake interview and posture assessment.
Expect freshly laundered sheets for each client, sealed oils, and a sanitised table surface. The therapist should wash hands in front of you and use hypoallergenic products on request. Portable tables must have intact foam padding, no torn vinyl, and stable legs. Tools like hot stones need a dedicated steriliser.
Ask if the therapist holds a current license and where training was completed. Request proof of liability insurance covering on-call or in-home work. Confirm the therapist has experience with your health conditions, such as high blood pressure, recent surgery, or pregnancy. Clarify the cancellation policy, which typically requires 24 hours notice.
For chronic neck or back tension, weekly sessions for 4 to 6 weeks usually produce measurable change. For general stress relief, one session every 3 to 4 weeks is common. Athletes in heavy training often book every 2 weeks. Discuss a plan with the therapist after the third visit based on your progress.
