What should I wear to a treatment?

by Bruce Jackson, Registered Massage Therapist on May 16, 2007

This depends on you and your level of comfort. You decide what you wear. During treatment you are covered by a sheet with the exception of the part of your body being treated at that time. After that area has been treated it is covered again. This practice maintains a boundary and preserves your control over the treatment. Even with the sheet as a boundary – you may still choose to wear pants, or a shirt. Many clients choose to wear only their underwear.

If your treatment is an Active Release session, then you will generally wear shorts and a tank top or sports bra. This provides a faster session while maintaining a boundary.
