Massage in Tampa's Summer Heat: Hydration & Timing
1 min readAleks, LMT
Hydrate Before and After
Drink water through the day. Avoid arriving dehydrated or after heavy alcohol. See aftercare.
Timing
Pick cooler times, morning or evening. Avoid booking right after hours in the sun or a long run: cool down and shower first.
Sunburn and Skin
Sunburned skin should not be massaged. Reschedule until it heals.
Heat After a Session
Massage can leave you relaxed and a bit lightheaded; stand up slowly and avoid strenuous heat right afterwards.
Runners and Athletes
See runners and post-workout recovery.
Mobile in Summer
A mobile session lets you stay in air conditioning. Keep the room comfortably cool: home preparation.
Visitors
See hotel massage.
