Massages... what am I missing

[Bigblu10]

Anybody ever had a Nuru massage? That is what I want to try. Of course with the opposite sex.

Yes many years ago. It was a great day Nuru massage then habs game center ice. Then we got hammered and went to dinner.

These comments are basically spot-on. Places like (not to single them out, but...) Massage Envy are all about volume and churning the customers. The masseuses burn out quickly and no one can do 8 deep tissue massages in a day, every day. Hence the light, useless "Swedish" massages that you usually get there.

That said, I was able (after going through nearly the entire staff) to find a good one at one of those places, and when she quit and went to another chain place, I followed her there until that place went under and she started her own practice. I don't know what I'll do when/if she moves or retires.

I also have had a few really bad massages that left me in worse shape than when I started. Unfortunately, despite state required licensing and training, not all of them know what they are doing.

Never heard of it until now. I suspect that the wife may complain.

You Canadians have all the fun.

Anyway, I get a deep tissue treatment every 3 weeks, that works best for me and my body and my budget.

The older I get the more I’m reminded of the Holy Trinity: Stretch, Roll, Aleve.

Massages can help but they don’t replace stretching. Before I learned, I was in excruciating pain and wasn’t able to walk out of the massage place. Not their fault, just didn’t fix the issue.
