§ 4 Contraindications
Massages / treatments are only carried out on healthy customers at their express request.

A massage / application under the influence of alcohol or drugs will be rejected without replacement. Massages on a full stomach are not recommended. If the client has other complaints (e.g. allergies, physical limitations, sensitive skin or pregnancy, mental illness, etc.), the client will discuss this with their doctor and inform the masseur in advance. If the client is not used to massages, in rare cases there may be undesirable reactions (e.g. hot flushes and sore muscles), but these will subside quickly and leave no lasting damage. Massages / treatments can also trigger psychological effects and may only be performed on healthy persons. It should be noted that no erotic services are offered. Sexual innuendos and assaults lead to the immediate end of the massage and have legal consequences.

§ 5 Exclusion of liability
If, despite professional massages / treatments, (consequential) damage occurs which is attributable to the fact that a customer has concealed reasons for exclusion, the masseur is exempt from any liability.
