How to Know the Difference between a Good Body Massage and a Bad One

When you ask anyone where to go to have a great massage, they’ll point you to a place where they enjoyed the experience. Not only are they referring to a place with excellent massage services, they are also pleased with practically everything in it, including the ambiance, the staff and basically, the overall experience they had.

What this tells you is that finding a place to have a really good body massage also means that you need to look for the best massage therapists out there. It’s simply because they’re the ones who will take care of you and your needs while you’re under their clock.

You should know that going for a professional licensed therapist doesn’t always necessarily mean that they do the best of jobs too. With body massage, sometimes, you have to find your perfect match. Referrals can be helpful, but at the end of the day, it still boils down to personal preference.

However, to point you in the right direction of looking for that perfect massage therapist, here are some qualities you might want to observe:

·         Good table-side manners. Massage therapists must make sure that you are comfortable and that all your needs are met. They should listen to your concerns, address issues and communicate with you properly. Any impoliteness or unfriendly attitude is a sign that you shouldn’t go back there.
·         Communicates well. You are getting a body massage because it’s either you want to feel relaxed or you want some pain relief. Either way, you should be able to communicate what you want with the therapist and he or she should listen to you. Further, the massage therapist should communicate the massage process with you as well as ask you what pressure is most comfortable.
·         Knowledge and experience. Knowledge and experience of a massage therapist work hand-in-hand to provide the best massage. The therapist should know how to give a good massage and how this affects the body.
·         A secret touch. Every massage therapist works the body differently. Every therapist has his or her own secret touch, so to speak. This is why not all massage therapists will be preferred by clients. Sometimes what’s good for one won’t be good for you, which is why it all boils down to a matter of personal preference. Nonetheless, if that therapist really does have that magic touch, it won’t be a surprise if there’s a long list of clients waiting for his or her service.

On top of all these, the massage therapist should always be professional at all times. If he or she wouldn’t, this will negatively impact your body massage experience.
