SPA ETIQUETTE AND ADVICE

  • It's okay not to talk during the treatment if you don't want to; the therapist will take their cue from you.

  • Wear what makes you feel comfortable; although the majority of people completely undress for a treatment, it isn't necessary. Spas will not compromise your modesty.

  • Tipping is at your discretion, but 15-20 percent is typical for good service.

  • Speak up and let the therapist know if the pressure is not adequate or too firm. Express your likes and dislikes and feel free to ask questions.

  • Remember, the right way to spa is your way; experiencing a spa treatment is very personal so approach the experience in a way that makes you most comfortable.

  • Try something new by listening to the recommendations of spa employees or other guests. There is so much to try in the world of treatments - don't be afraid to explore these options.

  • Jewelry should not be worn during your massage. It is best to leave valuables at home or in your room safe deposit box.

  • Cell phones and pagers don't belong in the spa; ensure the integrity of the spa experience by leaving these devices behind.

  • Advise the spa of any medical conditions or pregnancy so they can advise proper treatments.

  • Just relax and put yourself into the hands of the trained professionals to enjoy the experience.
