Get answers to common questions about Steamy Towel (Adds 5 Minutes).

Yes, generally safe when applied by experienced therapists at comfortable temperatures. Inform your therapist about sensitivities, open wounds, or skin conditions beforehand so towels can be cooled, omitted, or replaced with alternatives to ensure safety and comfort.

Steamed towels themselves won't stain, but oils or lotions used in massage can transfer. We use protective linens and high-quality towels; inform the therapist if you're wearing delicate clothing so we can take extra precautions or offer wardrobe protection.

Heat can influence circulation and inflammation. If you have diabetes, circulatory disorders, fever, contagious skin conditions, or recent injuries, consult the therapist or your physician first. We'll modify or skip the add-on to prioritize safety and therapeutic benefit.
