New to massage....
Discussion
Sooo....
Have been to see the masseuse at work for my back and worked a treat, and really helped. Really nice girl and easy to chat to, and got chatting about recently doing some serious endurance events and how everything is aching the next day(s), and she suggested booking in for a whole body massage. Which sounds great, but got me thinking, whats the protocol if erm, anything erm, pops up accidentally? Is it a hazard of the job and they ignore it? Or would one be liable for a cold bucket of water?
Thanks in advance.
P.s. Just to re-itterate, this is a masseuse who works at our office gym, not at grotty soho back street affair.

I was in exactly this situation a couple of years ago. My masseuse noticed and happened to mention that she was also a sports therapist for Harlequins and that it had happened to her on numerous occasions before, but was always on a much larger scale.
Funnily enough, I didn't even get a twitch thereafter...

they usually hold up a towel at the end for you to step into, in such a way that they can't see you until you're in it. however, this kind of makes you want to say 'look, I've not got a boner, honest'.
if you're new to massage, the pain of your back muscle being popped over your shoulder blade should give you something to concentrate on.

The sports massages I have are far too painful for any other reaction to happen.
Correct.The physio I use is a South African bloke with finger like sausages - have reflexively swore at him more than once "oooh ya fker" etc. Even if it was a blonde stunner doing it, the sheer pain involved would put the little fella off his game so to speak.
