None of them are good, except the ones the body makes during and after exercise sessions.  Do not try to do body building the easy way.

Abolutely.  Some people consider it the best form of exercise.  Unlike running and jogging, it doesn't beat up your body.

The physical reaction may be beyond your control. What would be wrong is to expect her to acknowlege it or to assist in relieving the situation.\nIf it happens, you should both ignore it.\n\n(I'm presuming that we are talking here about a legimate therapeutic massage studio, not a uhm...more personal sort of establishment.)

look in the telephone directory's yellow pages for a competent massage therapist. get one who gives deep tissue work & has been in business for at least 4 yrs.  that way they've got their style down.\nuse a professional. no matter what anyone says, no amateur can compete with someone who has at least 600 hours of training, no matter how smooth they think they are.\nbefore training, i thought i was good. now, i'm light years better.

Yes, it helps relieve body aches beliive it or not... but definately use extra protection so you don't have any embarrasing moments

Yes it is.  And if u are a guy a deep tissue is the best for you.  I spend about 200 a month for my weekly massages and I feel so much relaxed and healthier.  So it IS very worth the money to go and treat yourself.

No never had this with a therapist and No wouldn't buy that kind of massage and No.. not cheating IF the partner's getting the same treatment in the room down the hall, and no it's not a very healthy marriage lifestyle.  But if the partner doesn't have a clue.. yes it's cheating.

Oh, my goodness, had this discussion with my hubby the other day.\n\nYes, they think in terms of sex.  Even when we massage them...they think sex.  They also think a massage is foreplay and if they rub our backs then we should naturally be hot and bothered and ready to jump in the sack with them!  \n\ncrazy men! :)

Actually in part.....GOOD DEEP SWEDISH MASSAGE really helps, I know, I massage from time to time am from Hawaii...we were taught to do this at home, to walk on backs and give a VERY amazing foot massage. Neuropathy burns, so soaking and elevating the feet, avoiding salt and sodium filled foods will help. If you're a diabetic, which my mother was, it REALLY helped. being the eldest of nine, someone was usually prepared and it was all so natural. I am blonde w/ blue eyes and I live in the USA however, I cannot stand it her. Hawaii doesn't consider itself a part of it. neither do i. Reflexology is limited to this although in combination w/ sacro occiptal techniques of chiropratic medicinand accupuncture......it can be of assistance....Thank You!!!!!!!!

Infant massage is, at least as I understand it, mostly to help with the bonding process.  I think the Asker is teaching infant massage to parents.  It has nothing to do with relieving the infant's stress and it's quite a beautiful thing to share, actually.

I once had an hour long massage where the "therapist" just slid her hands under my shoulders while I laid face up under the sheet.  She moved her hands maybe an inch in each direction for the entire hour.  She said she was waiting for my "spirit guides" to guide her.  Needless to say, that was my last visit to her.  Just be sure you are clear as to what your client wants from the massage.  Everyone is different.  I think massage is the most theraputic threatment available for general overall health.  Good Luck!!!

well, some do, some dont. it matters on the preferance. to be on the safe side, u could get rid of it. I personally wouldnt mind running my hands over smooth skin.

You are good, really good, if you can identify specifically these muscles during a massage.  My hat is off to you!  Simple goading (finger compression), especially if you can identify a trigger point in one of these muscles, can be very helpful.  A 'stripping' type of massage in the direction of the muscles fibers may also be productive.\n\nBest wishes.

This is not a good practice because it is interfering with the normal functioning of the human body.  Over time, this will cause problems.  We are made to be healthy and private parts have a function.  It is pretty much like exericise, the more you use it the better it works.  The feeling cannot be the same either unless we let it work the way it is supposed to.
