Holy crap. I had my very first REAL massage last weekend. My husband hired his massage therapist to come out to our house last weekend to give me a 90 minute massage. This guy does massages at my husband's office every Thursday and my husband gets a 15 min one every week from him and has become friends with the guy. So, he came out and I had over an hour of massage right in my god damn living room. (let my husband have the remaining minutes).

Dude whips out the huge ass massage table (omg so comfy) in the living room and pops in a new age CD, dim the lights and of to lala land for me. Awesome. I loved it! So, my husband decided that he would hire this guy to come to our house EVERY WEEK FOR 90 MIN MASSAGE for 6 weeks total. omg how awesome? VERY awesome.

so I just had my 2nd massage. right before bedtime too. perfect. god damn I feel like a jelly fish right now. dude massages from scalp all the way to toes (um but not my ass or thighs - which he would do if i asked).

anyway, Im loving massage therapy. and I Love my husband.

I guess it's an add below your post. I thought you posted it. It says Plano Day Spa. This place is crazy.
 
A real massage is the best. I myself am a CMT and get a massage every week. I have too or I'm absolutely shit from the week. More people should give it a try. It's great for the mind and the body. The only thing to remember is to drink a min of 2 glasses of water after the massage. All that work gets the lymphatic system working pretty well and you want all that crap to be flushed out of your system and not relocating itself to creat a new problem spot in your body.

I'm happy for the both of you and hope that you continue to receive the work.

Absolutely, sometimes have a Thai massage daily when I've been doing long rides/runs. Great before bed or before an afternoon siesta. Pay $3 per hour at the spa across the road.

If you want to take it a step further and actually use the gift of touch as a method of healing the body then 'deep tissue bodywork' is where it’s at. Had my first session with a guru last week and can say without a shadow of a doubt that it was one of the most powerful experiences I've had in a long time, to actually feel the energy vibrating and flowing from your body is incredible.
 
Massage therapy has been my saviour as far as rehab and recovery from competition & various associated injuries. I used to get deep tissue regularly as I was dating an LMT .. with a happy ending :) Now there's a new chiro next to my gym that charges $45/hr my girl Shawnte' is fantastic - I've got some rotator cuff problems that have resulted in my whole back going into a giant spasm & not releasing when ever I do upper body work -- between that & the ART work I was getting down for a rotated pelvis -- damn. This is the only "medical" work I get done and its all in response to or recovery from lifting. But its fantastic. If there's ANYTHING I would recommend to include in your health regimen it would be a weekly massage.

Hey good call about the water afterwards. I'll have to keep that in mind,
 
Sadly, I've never had a massage. I'm going to have to get one, one of these days. I guess I am too frugal. I'm going to have to do that.
 
Regularly? No. I have only had one real massage but it was amazing. The college was having national anxiety screening day and was giving out free massages. Apparently at IU you can get a massage for $15 but since I'm not there right now I can't do it. But when I get back I intend to get 2 a month or so.

I was always too frugal (read: poor) lol.I could always think of a million other things that I needed for $100.

I know what you mean. I could have the money in my hand and I would think, I could get this massage, but if I get a pair of shoes, I could enjoy the $100 every time I wear them. I tend to hate to spend money on things that I have nothing tangible to show for it. I'm going to have to get over that, though, because I hear that massages are wonderful.
 
I get one a week. It has taken me a LONG time to find a new massage therapist that is really good and can actually work on someone with above average muscularity. Remember my old massage therapist killed himself, and I had been getting 3 per week from him. And to this day he was the absolute best that I have ever had lay hands on me. My new one is pretty damn good too, though blind. So I have to drive over there to his house. I have a table of my own which I used for when my last one just dropped by to work on me. It was so much easier to just roll off, fall in the shower and then bed. Now I have to get dressed and drive home before doing that.


Oh and for those complaining about $$$ of a massage, you can easily get your doctor to write you a RX for massage and your insurance will pay for it.
 
You can get a RX for a massage? Wow! Thanks. I didn't know that. =-)
 
Yep and you can find massage therapists who will bill the insurance company for it too.

I was actually going to start a business of massage therapist doing strictly rehabilitative work and only medical billing (insurance companies pay more) because I had access to many doctors that would send me patients. My business was going to be built around my friend who was a massage therapist, but he killed himself before we could really get around to laying the ground work and getting it up and running.

If you want to try a few massages for cheap look into the schools that teach MT. At the end of their course they have to do what is called "clinic". They work on the general public to get time in on different types of people. You can usually get a damn good massage for around $30 for an hour. If anyone is in the Denver area, I can totally hook you up with a good inexpensive massage to try it out.

Good luck everyone.

This is definitely a great way to get some affordable massage. If you are looking for some specific type of work, e.g. deep tissue for rehab I'd probably suggest looking into a more qualified person or an arrangement that hits up your insurance - even for all the deep tissue work I've had in the last 2 yrs, it doesnt' come close to my ins deductible - that was one real bummer. But its worth looking into. There is absolutely nothing I consider more important for general "maintenance" than massage (except regular dental visits).

That is not for me. Whether you know it or not only great massage therapists get repeat clients. When you look at it, it really is like manual labor. Too hard for me.

My friend was working at Royal Palms resort for a while. They charged $125 for a massage and he got $60 for it after the resort cut. When new management came in, they kept his rate at $60, but raised the overall price to $145 and then started charging him $300 per month for his table space there. He quit and started working for himself at $90 per hour, which most people left $100 with tip. But unfortunately the lifespan of a MT is very short because eventually your elbows and wrists start to give out. That is why he started wanting to do medical massage because it is 15-20 mins most for problem areas as opposed to 60 mins full body work and you charge just as much, even more for insurance billing.
 
10 bucks says he's buttering you up for something, probably a 3 some request.

My insurance doesn't cover massage......and I simply can't justify spending the $$ for it, regardless.....

If your insurance covers chiropractor visits, it will cover massage.

Did you ever see the episode of 'I love Lucy" with Tennessee Ernie Ford? "He needs a J-O-B".
 
Haha. I thought $15-30 a week for a massage was expensive, you guys are paying $120 for one. Being in college rules.
