Massage Stories - Share Your Story With Us!

Massage stories can bring us laughter or tears. Many times we encounter both, simultaneously!

Every massage therapist has some story to tell. At one point or another in our profession we either do something we didn't intend, or have a client surprise us with God knows what.

Of course there's the request for the happy ending. As a male massage therapist I've had requests for the 'happy ending' from both males and females.

What I see most often are draping issues. There are a lot of women who want to expose their breasts, for one reason or another. Don't forget the men, either.

How about the positive massage stories? In our profession we see a tremendous number of negative ones. What positive story will you share with us about how your massage assisted another?

Share that story with us on how you truly "touched" someone's life! How you brought them to tears by showing them you cared.

What mistakes have you made? Have you ever forgotten your clients name? Have you ever spaced out in the middle of the massage and missed an entire bodypart?

Why is a specific client an absolute dream to work on? What IS your 'Dream' client? How do you define your 'Dream Client'?

What about those clients you don't see eye to eye with for one reason or another? Why are they such a pain in the neck?

I'm not looking to break any therapist/client confidentiality agreements or laws, either.

Just the good, bad and ugly. Those massage memories that touched your heart or made your blood boil! ;)
