My massage therapist asks you to keep your drawers on. She will tuck the blanket into the undies when doing the back, and scooch them down as needed. To massage the butt, she goes through the blanket.

My RMT hurt me the other day, (not really but...) I was all knotted up on my right forearm. She worked the knots out, and I am a bit tender today.

Remember to drinks lots of water afterwards andtake a hot bath or shower , with epsom salts if possible. :)

Many of my clients are overweight. Try not to be too self-conscious....everyone deserves a good massage!

Most of my clients leave their undies on, and I tuck, too, but I do give the receiver the choice of how much to undress. Those areas are always covered anyways. I also work the hips through the sheets either way.

Not around here. i am extrememly lucky. We are allowed up to $800/year for massage from hubby's work benefits. :celebrate

As far as etiquette is concerned, i was apprehensive last winter about my unshaved legs. Free assures me its not a big deal. I really hate shaving in the winter.

Aside from being fat, I don't believe in shaving at all. :hide Hubby thinks it's hilarious I'm furrier than HIM. :sick TMI mabey?

Lucky you though, them sound like some great benefits!

even if I don't shave for a month I'm nowhere near as hairy as my hubby! If I was I would be part Sasquatch... :gig

I'll shave when it gets warm enough to wear shorts again. Or if I start to trip on it. Don't want to :th .
Really, blondes normally have thinner and paler body hair, so it takes longer to get obvious. It's our compensation for all the dumb jokes.
