with their mouth if you pay extra But seriously... for a typical Western massage in the U.S., you receive your massage on a table and you are draped. This means you have a sheet of some kind and possibly also a blanket over you. The therapist will undrape only what he or she is working on and then redrape you before moving on. While it's most effective to receive a full-body Swedish or deep tissue massage without any clothing on (hence the drape), it's not necessary. You can keep on whatever clothing you want. Just realize that most massage is done with oil or lotion and this might get on whatever clothing you choose to wear during your massage. Especially for women, it's difficult to treat the back while working around a bra strap -- but again, if you're not comfortable then you probably won't relax. So be sensible. Also, if a massage practitioner does not keep you adequately draped, you might think about ending the session and leaving immediately. Proper draping is a part of good massage training.
