…simple back rubs!
That’s correct. Short back rubs in the seated massage chairs. Massage therapists who meet me can’t comprehend why I’m so crazy about what seems to be an insignificant massage service and they ask themselves out call massage:
What’s so special about chair massage?
I’m crazy about seated massage because I honestly believe that it can help take massage to a mainstream market.
A recent report from the Ontario government shows that only 2½ percent of the public has experienced a massage in the previous year.
It doesn’t seem to make any sense. It seems as though in the media non-stop. You see it in the news and in TV shows all the time.
If you squeeze a friend’s shoulders are they going to say, “Stop that! I hate all that pleasure. It feels awful.” That’s very unlikely to happen because they love being massaged.
It’s imperative that we receive touch routinely in order to function normally. That’s why touch is tied into the parts of our brain associated with pleasure. Survival functions are connected to those pleasure centers in the mid-brain region – as are sex and eating. Our nervous systems are wired to make sure that we get what we need.
If we need touch so badly why don’t people get massage treatments?
To find the answer you need to look at classical massage Stand in the place of your clients and consider your massage as though you’ve never had one before:
In order to receive a massage you have to go into a teeny room behind a closed door, remove your clothing and lie down on a table while someone you don’t know massages oil all over you. Not only that, you have to pay a lot for the privilege.
And I know it disturbs many other massage pros to think of massage treatments from this viewpoint, but for the most part, that’s the PUBLIC PERCEPTION or massage. And when looked at from that perspective, it appears as if the massage profession is purposely looking to deter people from using massage services.
