choosing the right massage therapy products

by Kerris Samson

There are a number of massage therapy products in the marketplace which makes choosing the right ones a little difficult, especially if you have just set up a business as a massage therapist. There are alll different brands to select from so it may take you some time to sort through them all. Below we offer some information that you should help you to find the right products for you.

Massage Tables - The first thing that you need to do before you actually buy your table is decide what kind of business it is you are going to be running. Are you just going to be based in one location where your clients visit you or will you be offering them a service where you go to them (mobile).

You may even be someone that actually offers both facilities to clients. Then you need to get a massage table that is not only durable (strong) but is comfortable. Plus if you are going to be mobile then you need one that can be easily transported.

Linens - As well as a table you will also need to get table pads, sheets, blankets and face cradle covers. Choose these products very carefully because they will need to endure a lot of wear and tear. If you can choose linens that feel very comfortable against a person’s skin. Remember that for many of your clients they may find it difficult to become relaxed because the linens you are using are either scratchy or uncomfortable.

You can get disposable face cradle covers but if you can spend a little extra on buying ones which you will need to launder. Although more expensive they are less likely to cause your clients irritation. If you cannot actually purchase large quantities of these in the beginning then buy one or two as and when you can. When washing them use laundry soaps which are non-biological and unscented.

Lotions, Oils and Creams - These are products which are essential to your massage therapy business and will need to be replaced on a regular basis. To save yourself money buy all the base products (unscented) in bulk and then over time build up a selection of essential oils to use with them.

The more essential oils you have this provides you with the chance of giving your clients a more personalized service as they will be able to select the oils that they prefer. Plus over time as you learn more about your clients and what they like you can start to suggest some alternative scents that they should try.

Just by selecting the right kinds of good quality massage therapy products, this can help you towards having a much more successful massage therapy business. So take your time and do your homework before you make any purchases.
