First time getting a massage

deelite

Please help I took up a deal for a salon in Ranelagh, Perfect Balance for a one hour massage and I would love to know

Has anybody been there before and what was is like?

What massage should I go for (I'm healthy and not pregnant and don't know what's good and what's not)

What underwear do I wear like should I expect to remove my underwear is it normal?

Do I tip at the end and how much should I tip?

It's my first ever time for getting a massage so not really sure of what to expect. Thanx in advance

I've never been there before so can't say whether they are good

Most places do Swedish Massage which is a standard massage and aromatherapy which uses different oils depending on your mood etc

What underwear do I wear like should I expect to remove my underwear is it normal?
When you go in you will be given towels and told to strip down to just your knickers. You will be covered the whole time except for the area the massage therapist is working on eg back, legs etc

Tip whatever u feel he/she deserves! Doing massages is hard work though.

I used to be a massage therapist. Just relax and enoy:)
Dunno what way I posted that! My comments are just under yours

never heard of the place you are booked in with but in general most massage places are the same.

you turn up, go into a room with soothing music/incense candles etc ... depending on the massage you get you either take off your top (back and neck massage) or strip down to your underwear bottoms or wear a shorts (full body massage)

@ deelite
Did you ever go for that massage in Perfect Balance and if so how did it go?
Did you get the Big Guy or another.
