Here are some of the most important points of spa etiquette, according to The Day Spa Association.
Arrive early and give yourself plenty of time to enjoy the spa facilities prior to your treatment. This will relax and warm the muscles, which will aid in the therapeutic benefits of all our treatments and services.
You will usually undress completely for massage and body treatments, but your therapist will keep your body draped in dry services and only expose the area to be worked upon. The spa also uses draping in wet treatments like body scrubs and Turkish baths.
Give the therapist feedback as to your comfort and especially your troubled areas. You can talk or be quiet, and your therapist will follow your lead.
Relax, enjoy and allow others to care for you.
Understand that you are getting therapeutic massage.
Don't talk loudly in the public areas.
Do not bring children and leave them unattended.
If the therapist says, "take your time getting up," it means not to get up so fast that you get woozy. You generally have five or so minutes. The room must be prepared for the next client unless she or he says otherwise.
Give honest feedback to the therapist, receptionist, etc., as our spa professionals care to know if your spa experience met your expectations.
