- Yes.
(laughs)
Yes.
(upbeat music)
- I don't know if like I'm supposed to take my shirt off,
pants off.
- Dress down to your comfort level.
Some people like to keep their underwear on or a bra.
It's not going to affect your massage.
I just use a real basic bio-tone cream.
Oil is also better on people that are very hairy.
I did have one client who just shed a lot of skin.
- What do you do in that situation?
- I mean, you just kinda roll through it.
You know, you gotta exfoliate once in awhile.
Guys do sometimes get an erection on the table.
I mean it's not even really a sexual arousal,
sometimes, sometimes it is.
Some guys will get real embarrassed about it
and be like 'I'm not gay.'
It's like, I know.
Just go back to sleep.
Ignore it.
You never know when the person's gonna wake up.
And I just feel like if you got busted doing that,
I feel like getting caught stealing.
- Do you ever get tired of listening to the same
like flute music?
- Yes.
Umm.
People definitely groan or snore when they fall asleep.
If I have someone else waiting outside or whatever
and you hear someone in the room go, 'Ohhh.'
I know they're thinking, what's goin' on in there?
- So what is a knot?
- A knot is a bundle of muscle fibers
that have stuck together.
We're massage therapists.
And massage therapists are people that have gone
to school, that have a license.
A masseuse would be an unlicensed female.
Not always, but generally associated with a sex trade.
No one has asked me for a happy ending
directly to my face.
I've had the client on the table go, "Aren't you hot?"
They're trying to say, you should take your shirt off.
I'm saying, maybe you should go to sleep.
It gets tiresome, depending the profession.
I take a lot of care in making whoever is on my table
feel 100% safe and comfortable.
If you go to a spa or somewhere where not all the money
is going to them, then I would say yeah,
tip your massage therapist.
If you have someone like me,
I'm comfortable making what we've agreed to.
To think that you can succeed out here
without something to release that stress,
that tension, to keep yourself healthy.
If it were up to me, I'd say massage is the best way.
