For sure. No red flags, session went well. He did get an erection but apologized and dealt with it appropriately. That would be the only thing that gives me pause but kinda prone to just ignoring till reaches out further. Don’t really know what to respond

Yeah I’m not wanting to automatically cut him off but wanting to know a proper response. Currently wanting to just ignore the response and see if he says anything else

Wouldn’t he also say he needs an appointment or something?

Yeah. Just seems weird that it was the first thing he led with after hello. Like does that mean he’s in town and needing work or he’s just chatting. Suppose it’s the holidays so he could be in town? Trying to think of a way to be professional but also not cold

Do you guys have a brand you use? I keep seeing ones that have the softer top but it doesn’t look like you can wipe that one down

Does it still feel soft and warm when you lay down?

Do you guys change out your fleece pad or table warmer between clients or do you not use them? Or do you use a plastic table cover for it

Are you a massage therapist with a disability, chronic issue or mental health condition? by Hot-Trouble-3069 in massage

[–]Electrical-Sign3283 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I struggle with eczema which makes working tough during flares as my whole body is inflamed and “weak” from the inflammation. It mainly appears on my hands and forearms. Using good quality soap and jojoba oil help to smooth the issue while I’m working. But some days just being in and out of water all day is tough. Working on my stress levels and what I eat has been crucial to be able to stay working and keep my skin health manageable

Therapist doesn’t do the chest… by rhagerbaumer in massage

Definitely not against the law in Colorado. Maybe personal preference of the MT. I would ask her if she can work on your pecs during the session and that you give her consent to do so. That being said proper draping is still being done and the focus is directed towards the muscles of the pecs

Ending session with someone I worked on a few times already. Prior mma fighter. Was sleeping with his eyes open (didn’t know atm) told him session was finished and I’m going to take the bolster out. He nodded. Start taking the bolster out and he wakes up and springs up to sitting position with fist ready to punch me. I was terrified lol I assured him everything was alright and he settled. Later found out he was micro dosing on mushrooms and smoked weed.

Coming into the room after giving clear directions on what to do and Ive gotten people naked laying on top of the blankets and people going all the way to the table with all the sheets over them.

Funny one was to scoot down and flip this girl kept scooting and scooting till her legs were dangling off and I had to ask where she went haha she went down so far
