When planning to have spa massage for the first time it is very important to know whom you are comfortable with. If you are a woman will you be comfortable to a male massage therapist? Some spas massage establishments, especially those who have lots of customers, any therapist who is vacant would render the service regardless of gender, but it is always nice to request a female massage therapist if you are female and a male massage therapist for a male customer, though others don not mind. The reason of this is the issue of undressing while spa massage is being done. In some cases male therapist is a good choice even though you are a woman if the massage technique needs strength. The main concern about spa massage is that they do not have a room where you can change gown, what the massage therapist will do is that he/she will just escort you to the massage room and leave you there giving you little time to undress and put on your massage gown. If you want to request a male or a female massage therapist, you should call in advance so that they could set it up for you. In any stipulation that you cannot come on the time of appointment inform the spa center, because most of the massage therapists are by appointment so the spa massage manager will have to pay the massage therapist regardless if you arrived or not.
