I was once give a free massage with my facial. It was very inappropriate and I laughed the whole time. The masseuse was very upset with me but remained professional at all tiimes - even though her inappropriate touching didnt seem professional to me!

Had Desi Malish, Swedish, Thai, Chinese. Most important thing is how good the masseur is

I had no idea she was going to do what she was doing. Women should not be allowed to touch other women! It was just wrong!

Naturally I have never had another massage in my life. Stick to Radox innit!

Hahaha....so did you not stop her?....i did told her i m ok just stop it already :P.

Well I did try to move myself off the table, but she was very forceful! Plus, I was laughing too much to actually form a coherent sentence. I felt bad tipping, didnt even look at her face!

Re: Massage therapy

I only saw a malish done by my dadi for my hand when I got hurt so hard. She taught me how to do that and it works.

I believe in Allah and also that he give reliefe by malishing with zaitoon ka tail if your body hurts or you have pain.

Whatever u do, stay AWAY from Chinese Suction-Cup therapy!

(bad memories!)

Re: Massage therapy

Swedish massage is most common and good to start with. I've done Shiatsu before and man, after you have your first one, the rest are easier to deal with. It's deep tissue massage and you'll feel like strangling your masseuse on first try, but you'll feel awesome after. I've also tried hot stone massage which is amazing also.

Gina: I haven't tried Ayurvedic massage but have been meening to! I want to have oil poured onto my forehead like how its shown in pics (LOL). Seriously, I've heard great things about though.

Re: Massage therapy

I got a prenatal massage one when I was pregnant with my 2nd one. It was great. Really took away the aches and pains of lower back due to the weight.

I like the traditional ones - if you have tension in the neck area

I had a 4 handed Lomi Lomi massage - which was too relaxing. I feel asleep and was drooling. What waste of money if I had to sleep and drool - I should have just gone to bed. :)

More than the type of massage - I think what makes the difference is the massuer. Everyone has a different technique.

Re: Massage therapy

I love all massages... if the word massage is mentioned then i'm there!

Deep tissue is by far the best though ... i feel like jelly after, and always sleep for more than 5 hours that night :)

Re: Massage therapy

Oooh - try a hot stone massage! Awesome!!

And the Lomi Lomi is VERY relaxing - I loved it!!

And I LOVE getting a mini massage with my facial!! At the exorbitant prices of facial here, I better get more than a facial scrub and a mask!! :D

It's usually warm buttermilk or medicated oils.. it IS VERY relaxing..IF u can tolerate the smell of the pungent oil.. (I cudn't!)
