How to go for a massage
How I did it: my first massage i, kept passing a day spa in leicester uk (now closed)
i thought i may try this so i went in and booked a appointment (i sort
of felt self-conscious at first as a guy in a day spa, then i thought
who cares)
i went back on my massage day and was shown a
changing area where you get undressed down to your underwear and put on
a robe (very private), then led to the treatment room where i was ask
to get on the table and under the towels (just in underwear) while i
was doing this the person giving the massage left the room (again this
was very private) the person then knocked on the door and ask if i was
ready i said i was and they came in.
while being massaged they
put on relaxing music, and they only uncover the bit of the body being
massaged and the person does not see you totally naked
the massage does not hurt but can feel hard but it is very relaxing
i have had more massages and spa treatments since then in different spas and no longer feel self-conscious about going to spas
i
even had massages in turkey which was fun as there is a language
problem but use hand signals to tell you what they want you to do e.g
turn over
