Things You Shouldn't Do Prior to Getting a Massage

 

One of the best things about having a Russian massage in Dubai is that you don't have to do anything but relax. There are a few things you can stop before your massage therapy session to ensure you get the most out of it.

1.       Take a drink

Yes, water is appropriate, but alcohol is not. Since your body transfers contaminants when you get a massage, any negative effects induced by alcohol can be amplified.”

2.       Take a sunbath

Although it might be difficult to stop while on holiday, experts advise staying out of direct sunlight on the day of your massage to avoid sunburn.

3.       You're sick

Although you can't predict when your immune system will fail you, it's best to cancel your massage if you're sick. It is in everyone's best interests if you cancel with at least 24 hours' notice and reschedule for a few days later when you are feeling better.

4.       Take care of yourself

There's no need to get all glammed up before getting a massage. Nobody is concerned with the state of your hair. There's no need to make an excuse for not getting a pedicure in a few weeks.

5.       Take a shower

Although your motives should be good, taking a hot shower before your massage is actually not advised. A hot rinse before your massage will improve circulation and increase the likelihood of sweating during the session. Showering with warm water a few hours before your appointment is not only appropriate, but highly recommended.
