When adding a movement to an existing massage procedure, considering the client's skin care history, likes, and dislikes is essential because it ensures that the treatment remains personalized and effective. Understanding the client's previous experiences with skincare and massage will help tailor the technique to their specific needs and preferences, ultimately enhancing their comfort and overall satisfaction with the procedure.

A thorough understanding of the client’s history can guide the choice of movements—ensuring they are beneficial rather than potentially irritating or uncomfortable. This tailored approach promotes a safe environment and fosters trust between the client and the practitioner, allowing the client to feel more at ease and engaged during their treatment.

While it's also important to be aware of products used, room temperature, and lighting, these factors do not directly influence the effectiveness of the specific movement added to the massage. Ensuring that the massage aligns with the client's personal history and preferences is the most critical factor in enhancing the overall experience.
