01
The practical answer
Removing a bra is optional
A bra can limit some back glides, but massage can be adjusted around it or performed over clothing. You do not need to choose before asking how the session works.
- Keep it on if that feels better
- Ask for over-clothing work
- Choose a different area or method
02
Draping
Breasts should remain covered
In a standard professionally draped massage, only the area being worked is uncovered. Removing a bra does not give permission to expose or touch breast tissue.
- Request more coverage
- Clarify any chest-area work first
- Local rules may add requirements
03
Words to use
Make the preference simple
Try: “I am keeping my bra on today. Please work around it,” or “I removed it, but I want my chest fully covered.” A professional response should be calm and immediate.
- No apology is needed
- A preference can change
- Stop if the boundary is questioned
