Do you like massage and if so, how often do you get massaged?

If not, why don't you like massage?

I personally feel I would not be alive today without massage. I believe it will cure just about anything that might ail you (exaggerating, but not by much!)

I like them and get them once a week on average. It's free of charge at the club.

I love them, but only when the masseuse comes to my home. Having to get dressed and then drive home kinda takes the edge off it, especially if the drive involves heavy traffic.

I used to have a weekly massage with a girl who did home calls - she brought her massage table, oils and music with her, but used my towels and candles. After she was done it was so nice to just roll off the massage table, don a fluffy towelling robe and relax on the couch for an hour or two before bed.

Last time I checked, there was no-one making home visits in my new town. Sigh.

Love them! I use to get one about every 2 weeks. I have a bad back and ut was so soothing to get the links worked out.

A cheap(er) way to get massages is to get a hold of someone who just graduated "massage school". I think for the first X hours they are in training of something like that and they can't charge money - but they can take tips. So you can get one from one of them and give them a nice tip which they will like and it will be cheaper than a fee + tip.

Also, how can anybody not like massages? Does a person like this exist?

LOL, I'm raising my hand...

I hate massages and refused them in the past even when they were part of a hotel or cruise package. I don't like strangers touching me.

I'm married to the only person who's allowed to give me massages.

Do you like when your spouse gives you a massage? If so, then put your hand down. You do like massages. Nobody wrote anything about strangers giving the massage.

I suspect he was talking about a slightly different kind of massage.
