Spa Smart

After the holiday hubbub dies down, I plan to treat myself to a massage—or if I’m lucky, take advantage of a generous gift certificate. How to make the most of the experience:

1. Ask questions. When you call to bok your time, inquire about attire, tipping, anything on your mind. Also, specify whether you want a male or female therapist.

2. When you undress, leave undergarments on if you prefer. But know you’ll always be covered, except for the area that’s being worked on.

3. Chat if you wish—but it’s also fine to simply say hello, then keep quiet.

4. Speak up firmly right away if touch is too rough or too light. -Linda Moran Evans
