Quick post to ask all knowing f-list a massage question

[kelly_girl]

So for Christmas, Hubby got me a 3 month massage memebership to this place here in town. I have never been to a massage place or therapist.



If anyone has been I'd love to know about your experience and if you have any advice or/and tips.

yes to everything fabrisse said. also, if you've never had a massage before, just go with a regular Swedish massage to start with. don't get deep tissue until you're used to the pressure. tell the therapist if the pressure is too much and they'll lighten it. drink TONS of water afterwards. massaging brings all of the toxins out of your muscles and they must be flushed out of your system. if you don't drink water, the next two days will be hell (your body will be sore if you're especially tense, but it'll be worse if you don't drink water). hope that helps!
