Preparing for Your Massage Session
📝 Preparing for Your Session at Athletic Sports Massage
Health Check: If you are feeling unwell or have symptoms of a cold/flu, please contact me as soon as possible to reschedule.
To ensure you receive the most effective clinical treatment, please take a moment to review this checklist before your appointment.
- Medical Reports (Mandatory): If you are seeking treatment for a specific injury or have a history of spinal surgery, please email your GP, surgeon, or imaging reports (MRI/Ultrasound) to me at least 48 hours before your session. Note: As per my Duty of Care, I cannot treat these conditions without prior review of your clinical history.
- Intake Forms: If this is your first visit, please complete the Health & Consent form I have when you come. Filling in the form time is not taken out odf you massage time.
What to Wear:
For the Assessment: Wear loose clothing or gym gear for your initial postural and movement assessment.
- For the Massage, I work directly on the skin with massage oil and don't massage over clothes. You will be professionally draped with a towel at all times.
- For Glute/Hip Work: To treat the gluteal muscles effectively, a G-string is required (I do not work under or pull up tight, full-coverage underwear). If you don't have one, I provide complimentary disposable G-strings for your use on the table near the massage table, and you can take them with you when you leave.
- Hygiene: For the best experience, please ensure you have showered before your appointment. If you are on your period, you are still welcome to attend; simply ensure you are freshly showered.
- Arrival & Parking: Please arrive exactly at your scheduled time. I stagger appointments so that clients never cross paths, ensuring your total privacy. You may park in the private driveway.
