Most customers will fall asleep peacefully while in session but may notice some drool pooling up when they wake up so be wary of these things. Offer them with tissue tactfully to help relieve the feelings of embarrassment or awkwardness. Change the sheets then clean the area before a new massage in ensuring the place is peaceful, sanitized and safe.

They like getting themselves relaxed and then meditate while having sessions so inform that doing so is just fine with you. But some kinds of therapy would need their feedback more such as sports or deep tissue massages due to the deeper muscle layers being worked on.

You may have enjoyed the meal but this would make an uncomfortable situation during the session when they can smell them. Make sure you brush your teeth or take some breath mints before your next therapy.

Customers have different body shapes and sizes with therapists seeing them all everyday that you may forget that they feel conscious too. People will get insecure with their weight, feet, toes, scarring, excessive hair and acne so suggest techniques which is done through clothing. Doing this in their first session would make them at ease with being massaged.

Customers prefer mostly female therapists while others prefer male or therapists of either gender but this must not be a hindrance for men to pursuit this profession.

When wearing open toed shoes, manicure them so your client would not be distracted.

Customers could decide if they prefer wearing an underwear still when getting massaged or be nude completely. Although if their problems areas are their groin, buttocks, hips or lower back, suggest to them that tight underwear can hinder the therapy at times.
