What do you wear during a couple's massage?

When attending a couple’s massage, comfort and modesty are key. Since massage involves lying on a table and being partially undraped, it’s important to understand what to wear before your session to ensure a relaxing experience for both partners.


1. Minimal Clothing Is Common

  • Most professional massages are performed with clients partially undressed, but you will always be draped with towels or sheets to cover areas not being massaged.

  • For comfort, you can wear:

    • Underwear (briefs, boxers, or bras for support)

    • Loose-fitting shorts or a sports bra if you prefer not to remove underwear

⚠️ You are never required to be fully nude; communicate your comfort level with the therapist.


2. Comfortable Clothing Before and After

  • Wear easy-to-remove clothes when arriving, such as:

    • T-shirts or tank tops

    • Sweatpants or yoga pants

  • After the massage, you’ll likely feel relaxed, so soft, comfortable clothing is ideal to continue that feeling.


3. Accessories and Jewelry

  • Remove jewelry, watches, and hair accessories that might interfere with the massage.

  • Keep hair tied back if it falls forward while lying down.


4. Special Considerations

  • If you’re pregnant or have specific medical needs, ask the therapist about recommended attire or draping adjustments.

  • Some couples may wear matching robes or spa wraps if provided by the facility, adding to the comfort and shared experience.


Final Thoughts

Wearing the right clothing—or minimal clothing that allows proper draping—ensures your couple’s massage is comfortable, relaxing, and stress-free. Clear communication with your therapist about your preferences will help both partners fully enjoy the shared experience.
