In the recent years, most hotels have opened their own massage parlors for the travelers or have treatment rooms or exotic therapies. A hotel can be a five star while the star can be in another category but either way, you get to have a massage at an extra cost. Kneading techniques are several and it depends with where a person was trained. Some of the hotel massage service offers the following: Swedish, Thai, Californian, ayurvedics among others.
Prior to the session, there are things that you and the therapist have to do so that your body can relax. It is highly advisable to spend some time proceeding the session at a steam room or even a sauna since it will help your muscles to ease. The therapist can put some music on that will help you loosen a little. It should be music that you are happy with.
It is always good for the therapist to talk about the technique she is using on you and to explain the oils and treatments. She should explain in a gentle manner. It is common knowledge that no one wants to have a chit chat during relaxing time but the information you will get will help you to describe what you want the next time you are going to have one.
What makes massages important is the pressure and the strokes applied to your body. You should not be hesitant at any point to ask the therapist to add more pressure or lessen it because it will be your loss. The pressure will be uncomfortable to you and as a result you will not be able to relax at all. The reason behind the strokes is to regulate the blood flow.
After the massage, the therapist will ask you if you want something to drink. It is a good idea to drink since your body temperature drops. Its advisable to drink plenty of water afterwards because your body will be feeling drained and also during the kneading your body releases toxins that could be dangerous and water could help.
For a session, loose fitting clothes are recommended. If the hotel you live in is the one providing your massage, then you can just wear a robe and walk down to their parlor. You can also wear dry swim wear or even underwear. There are spas that provide paper briefs for their clients. The good thing is that there is a private locker room for you to change.
Since your main reason for getting a kneading session is to relax and also relax your muscles, it is wise to leave behind your phone and other electronic gadgets like a laptop and a tablet behind. Let it be your relaxing time and avoid such distractions. You will not be the only one using the spa so if another client hears a phone ring yet he was trying to relax, it can be very disappointing.
In conclusion, massages vary from hotel to hotel and it depends with each management. It will be to your own advantage if you get one that offers both services that is, the massages and also the accommodation. Every time you have a massage, the bill will be compiled to one.
