How I did it: my first spa experience was a 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 they used hand signals to tell you what they want you to do e.g
turn over

i have also had

indian oil massage, stone massage, Turkish bath and a facial at spas and they are all cool
