These are obsticles you will encounter when trying to help those you encounter who you feel can really use the help from a massage..
To address each try these ideas.
* I’ve been a massage therapist nearly 23 years I work on all body types and sizes. Therapeutic massage is designed to help improve quality of life thru healing.
* if you are ok seeing a chiropractor or physical therapist you will be ok seeing me for massage, it’s medical not spa treatments I offer
*i specialize in working with people with high expectations, I listen to every concern and help create a safe environment for healing.
* time and money are excuses. They are harder to debate as they are relative to each individual. I always point out that when finite resources are available deciding the best use of those is important, how important is your health and wellbeing? Try setting $3 a day aside for your massage and you will have enough every month to get one hour of pain relief. As for time time management is a learned skill, prioritize your time and you will find you have time.
*massage has so many benefits, this is a weak reason based on lack of knowledge and experience. Share personal experiences they hold more power than you imagine. Research is a cold source cooked in potentially biased statistics that can be confusing, but a personal testimony of massage is a warm, comforting, relatable source.
* in the case a husband or wife is worried about massage for their spouse, let them know they can sit in the sessions while I work on the spouse it’s totally ok. I’m here to help in healing and love they are wanting an active roll on their loved ones health and well-being. As for inappropriate touch, I am a very conservative individual. I offer therapeutic massage, and make it very clear that propositioning a massage therapist is a sexual felony. I’m insured to protect clients and myself. Inappropriate behavior will not be tolerated. My office is a safe healing environment.
* massage has a plethora of benefits. Research has been going on for generations. There is so many documented studies about the body and how massage helps I learn new things all the time. Have fun and learn new things.
