\"massage<\/a><\/p>\n

Where self-care can mean different things to different people, it is well recognised as a form of wellness or therapy to relax, refresh and rejuvenate. When you are on your luxury ski holiday, there is nothing better than heading straight to the chalet spa area or for an in-house massage to recharge and recover from a long day on the mountain. Whether it’s a full body massage or a targeted treatment to relive aches and pains, massage therapy in the Alps is important for mental and physical recovery.<\/p>\n

Ski In Luxury are proud to be partnered with Massage Me,<\/a> providing bespoke well being solutions and massage therapy in the French Alps.\u00a0In the current climate of the Covid-19 pandemic, we took some time to talk with massage therapy specialists about what our guests could expect this winter from a treatment with Massage Me…<\/p>\n

Community<\/h3>\n

One of the things we are very aware of at Massage Me, is that our success is not about the individual, but about our team as a whole. From the office team to our team of very talented massage therapists, our shared values and passions are what makes each Massage Me treatment a success.<\/p>\n

It is important that we all work together as a community to support one another, and also to improve our direct and indirect communities : the massage therapist community, the ski and alpine industry, and our clients.<\/p>\n

Why Massage Me?<\/h3>\n

Keeping it short and sweet, our core values driving every decision we take are to :<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Promote good health, physical and mental<\/li>\n
  2. Promote equality for all<\/li>\n
  3. Minimise our environmental impact<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    You can read more about our mission on the Massage Me site. For our Ski In Luxury partners, today we are going to focus on \u2018good health\u2019 and specifically the current pandemic.<\/p>\n

    Covid-19 Safe Massage<\/h3>\n

    With the help of our therapists and clients, we are all working together to make sure that at-home wellness is not only accessible again, but is enjoyable, relaxing and satisfying.<\/p>\n

    We have always practised excellent levels of health and hygiene and thanks to this dedication, this winter, our clients can expect this same level of service, with some additional measures.<\/p>\n

    Team Massage Me<\/h4>\n

    Before our team members start working with Massage Me, they all have to complete several mandatory training sessions in relation to Covid-19, created by bodies like WHO (World Health Organisation)<\/a>. By educating our team, we can make sure they are fully informed to assist you in the correct method, whilst also providing a fantastic treatment.<\/p>\n

    If any of our team are experiencing symptoms, or have been knowingly exposed, then they will follow the massage therapist Covid-19 guidelines and not be available to work, thus self-quarantining for 14 days.<\/p>\n

    Our therapists all live locally within your resorts, meaning that if you have a massage with us, your therapist will not be travelling a large distance into the resort.<\/p>\n

    PPE<\/h4>\n

    You can expect your Massage Me therapist to still be wearing the same friendly, professional expression, but it might not be visible behind their face mask and visor. Our therapists will all be wearing the recommended PPE and clients are encouraged to wear what makes them feel most comfortable for their massage.<\/p>\n

    Touch and Contact<\/h4>\n

    Whilst it might seem incongruous to be trying to minimise contact during a massage session, which relies on touch, this will be a focus. This included things like :<\/p>\n
