When you enter a massage clinic take a quick look around,
If you feel comfortable within the surroundings your massage experience should be the same.
By taking a mental note of surroundings you can better prepare yourself before you even get onto a massage table, if the area the massage is to be taking place is not a clean and professional looking environment you can walk away at anytime. Also look at how the therapist is attired.
A well presented, professional therapist should keep you at ease throughout the massage procedure. You are more likely to have a more pleasing and comfortable massage with a therapist who is qualified. Do not hesitate in asking to see a Therapists Qualifications.
If the therapist refuses or hesitates and you feel uneasy, you have every legal right to leave.
