Punctuality

Clients should arrive at the studio a few minutes prior to their appointment start time.

Please note that therapists are only permitted to work up to 5 minutes past your scheduled appointment end time.  If you are substantially late, your service may be shortened in order to adhere to the studio schedule; the full amount for the service is still due. 

​

Professionalism

In accordance with Board prescribed professional ethics and standards of conduct for licensed massage therapists, draping is required during all appointments.

At the start of an appointment, the therapist exits the room and the client disrobes in privacy to their comfort level. Clients may only disrobe after the therapist has exited the room.

Prior to the therapist re-entering the room, the client is required to fully cover the genitals, gluteal cleft, and female breast area with the sheet provided. At no time during the appointment may any of these areas be exposed by either the therapist or the client.

​

Clients are not permitted to solicit the services of a massage therapist to be provided outside of the studio.

Massage therapy is strictly therapeutic. No sexual discourse or overtures of any kind are tolerated.

Etiquette

Atmosphere

Artemis is a sanctuary -- please turn off all cell phone notifications and use a soft, low voice to avoid disrupting other clients who are in session.

Conversation

We recommend clients relax and avoid engaging in casual conversation during massage. However, there are instances when your therapist may need to speak with you -- this may be for feedback, an explanation of findings, or to ask you to reposition. Communication about how you are feeling is always important if something feels great (or not-so-great!)

Gratitude

If you enjoy your massage, it is customary to leave a gratuity for your therapist. Gratuity may be left on a credit card or given separately as cash. If you have taken advantage of a discounted rate, please consider tipping on the regular service rate.

​

Hygiene

We do not have shower facilities at the studio. Bathe prior to your massage, especially if you intend to work out or engage in physical activity earlier in the day. Please avoid applying any strong fragrance, such as perfume or cologne. Hand towels are available in every therapy room; you may also request a warm towel prior to the start of the massage if needed.

Ritual

In an effort to maintain a clean and quiet environment, shoes may be removed when you arrive at the studio. A shoe rack is provided. Other personal items should be taken into the therapy room with you. If you are removing any valuable jewelry, consider placing it directly into a handbag or pocket, so that it is not left behind. Artemis is not responsible for any lost or misplaced items.

Our Story

Today, the studio consists of 10 highly-trained massage therapists. Through constant continuing education and innovation of services, we offer the widest range of options for massage therapy in Central PA.

OUR SUCCESS IS GROUNDED IN A GENUINE DESIRE TO PROVIDE THE BEST MASSAGE EXPERIENCE POSSIBLE FOR EVERY CLIENT WHO COMES THROUGH OUR DOOR.

If you're looking for relief of pain and stress, a compliment to your active lifestyle, or a chance to celebrate a special occasion, you can rely on Artemis for a professional, quality massage in a friendly and relaxing atmosphere.
