1) Arrive early. Arrive at least 15 to 20 minutes earlier. You should have enough time to check-in and change into your bathrobe and slippers. Sometimes, there is a consultation form that you need to fill in.
2) Leave valuable stuff at home. Although spa usually comes with locker for all customers, it is better and safer to leave unnecessary valuable stuff such as necklace, rings, and etc at home.
3) Turn off your cellphone. Turn off your cellphone or best leave that in the locker. You don not want the ringing sound to spoil the calm and relaxing atmosphere. That will certainly annoy you and the others.
4) Ask for a spa tour. Go for a spa tour to enjoy the surroundings and make yourself comfortable.
5) Select your therapist. Choose whether you need a female or male therapist. Or get a certified massage therapist who meets your specific needs.
6) Pick your products and ask questions. Ask the therapists to show the products to you and discuss the choices.
7) Talk to therapist. If you do not like certain things during your treatment, the pressure, the music, the temperature. Then ask the therapist to make necessary adjustment.
8) Don't' talk if you don't feel like it. The choice is yours whether you would like to talk or stay quiet. The therapist will follow your footsteps.
9) Dress comfortably. Massage is usually done completely undress, but you are covered with a sheet/towel at all times. Only the part being massaged is uncovered. If you're more comfortable wearing your underwear, that's fine. Just tell that to your therapist.
10) Reschedule if you're not well. Postpone your appointment if you have a cold or migraine as the massage will simulate your circulation and make you feel worse.
11) Take your time once finished. After your last treatment, you will be led back to the locker room. There is specific time for you to leave. You can shower, get dressed, put on your makeup, do your hair, have a cup of tea and etc. before you leave.
12) Pay up and tipping. Carefully check the receipt to ensure there is no overcharge. And tipping is entirely up to you.
