Ever had a professional massage?

[frorider6]

And I don't mean one by the asian ladies out on the highway. I mean by a pro.

I had one last night. My girlfriend got it for me (she's awesome). Anyway, I was kinda nervous going into it. It was a full hour massage and I thought I'd be bored and ready to leave way before that. I was so wrong. Anyway, she left me to undress and I got naked. I found out later most people leave their underwear on, but it's not a big deal. Oh well. It was better naked as she could really work my hams and glutes. I was covered with a blanket and warm water packs were on my back while she did my legs. My calves and traps were really sore from my new workout so she had to ease up on them a bit. A lot if it kinda hurt too, but in a good way.

It was very relaxing, but not in the way I thought. I was fully awake and aware, not the least bit sleepy. And I thought I might get aroused but I didn't.


She did talk about the benefits of massage and how it cleanses the muscles of toxins. I think that's a load of crap. I've never heard anyone that went to medical school talk about needing the massage the toxins out of your body. I do think it would help with circulation and bloodflow. But even if it did nothing medically to help you, it still felt good and was totally worth it.

I can not believe she spent the whole hour on your legs. She must have spent the other 57 minutes on the rest of you.

Did I make it sound like she spent an hour on my legs? Nope, she split it up pretty well. Or was that supposed to be a joke?

And just for your information dickhead, she said I had great muscle tone and could be used as an anatomy chart. Every muscle was pronounced and easy to find.

At the spa I work at we have 2 certified masseuses, and the one that gave me the free massage was the owners husband. He is still in school for it, but he still does a good job. Even though I'm tiny, I like it a little more rough. Certain areas, the hams, hurt a little, but I completely relaxed and let him do what he was doing. He could have spent more time on my neck & shoulders though.
But yes, massages are wonderful. There are many different variations of massages as well. We're going to start Stone Massage Therapy. Its with these flat black heated stones. I don't know the full details, but I'm learning more as I work there, I like to absorb everything I can.

Feels good huh?
I don't want to hear that metaphysical shit about cleansing the toxins, and finding your chi, and energy fields.
Thats all good and well, but I paid for you to rub my back!

Hot stone therapy was goooooooooood. You can do it yourself too. Buy some river rocks of different sizes and boil them.

I get them all the time. They do release a lot of toxins especially deep tissue massage which is what I usually get. I believe you can really benefit from regularly scheduled massages, and with them I think you can help prevent injuries.

be sure to drink a lot of water if you are having these done - like bull69 said, it releases gunk from the muscles into the blood stream which you need to excrete through sweat and urine - and you need mucho water to do so.

my dad was always big into these and loved them.
I personally don't do well with people touching me.

Well, I've been drinking a lot of water lately anyway since I'm back on somewhat of a diet, but I still don't buy the flushing of toxins things.

I'd get them a lot more if I could afford it. The girl I went to only charged $50 for an hour which is inexpensive I guess. But that's $50 I really can't justify spending on a regular basis.

Hey bro, cool that you are getting massages. Kronkette is a Certified Massage Therapist, so believe me when I tell you massage definitely releases toxins from your body. Toxins are held in your muscle fiber and when broken down, they will release into your bloodstream. Drinking water will help flush them out of your system.

Personally, I always get really stoned whenever she massages me, I wonder why? Couldn't be toxins releasing! HAHA. Its true, you can actually get high if you were recently stoned or drunk and go and get a massage.

BTW - I was going to use the same avatar that you did, great choice, much better than the old one.

So your chick is hot, a massage therapist, and massages you. You're now on my list of people I don't like. I guess my life isn't too awful bad though. I have a hot girlfriend that just paid for a massage.

And I don't think you'll ever be able to convince me of that toxin stuff. not until I see the medical community endore it.

To me it sounds like she spent all her time on your chicken parts.

...just for your information dickhead, she said I had great muscle tone and could be used as an anatomy chart. Every muscle was pronounced and easy to find.

Nothing like and ego massage to get repeat business.

Actually I rarely get massages, but when she does its awesome. After shoulder day and heavy shrugs, I think I would die, if she wasnt there to rub me out. Thanks for the comments on her, I think the same! I bet your girlfriend is hot, send her to massge school and make her rub ya for free! lol!

Fro finally gets a real massage after patronizing the "Rub 'n Tug" three days a week for the past two years.

My brother and his best friend tried to go to one of those when they were in high school.

Little asian lady - "You too young. You leave now."

I get one hour of massage a week and have for over a year. Everyone who hears that always thinks they're the spa variety. They're not the relaxing kind-- they are pretty miserable but I feel great afterwards. They're part of physical therapy and they kind of suck to experience. It's kind of like I go in, get naked, get my ass kicked, get dressed, and go home. I'd love to get a relaxing spa massage someday.

As for the "releasing toxins" I can say that if I don't drink massive amounts of water all evening after a massage, my entire body cramps up and I'm miserable.

I had one once many years ago in Cuba, then in Spain. Those swedish massage were incredible. Makes you feel like in heaven for the rest of the day....
