Which items should you have on hand during treatments for client support?

A bolster for back support
A heated blanket
Only pillows
A massage oil

The correct answer is: A bolster for back support

Having a bolster for back support is essential during treatments as it enhances the client's comfort and alignment. Bolsters provide additional support to areas like the lower back, helping to relieve tension and pressure that may build up during a treatment. This extra support is particularly important in aesthetic services that involve longer periods of reclining, allowing clients to relax fully and enjoy the experience without discomfort. While heated blankets and pillows can also contribute to a positive treatment experience, bolsters specifically address the need for support in maintaining proper body positioning. Massage oil, while beneficial for certain treatments, does not serve the same function of physical support. Having a variety of supportive items on hand allows the esthetician to tailor the treatment environment to each client's needs, ensuring the highest level of comfort and care.
