Massage Tutorial: Draping techniques (even glutes and abs!)

How to drape for a massage without your client worrying about how much skin is showing (and with no unpleasant drafts!).

The most important piece of advice I have is to keep the drape either close to the skin or touching it at all times. This gives the client tactile feedback about where it is at all times; if you simply drop the drape on them from above, it can be difficult for them to tell where it is and isn't! This also prevents that "parachute" effect, where the sheet billows out and blasts the client with cold air. Brr!

I've included a bit on breast draping, which I did my best to show step-by-step. Practice this with a friend a few times; if you pull the wrong sheet, or lose track of the pillow case/towel, you're going to have a bad time. Go slowly, and keep the drape close to the skin.

Let me know what you think! I'll probably make a video on diaper draping in the future, but I generally only use it when a leg technique requires a lot of movement.
