The Benefits of GIVING an Asian Massage
We all know the benefits that Asian massages have, but how about giving one?
While learning about the art of Asian massage, I noticed an interesting phenomenon. After I was done with a massage, I felt more energetic than before. Although it wasn't obvious at first, I noticed that my massage was providing me with as much benefit as the massage was body rubs.
I spoke with my teachers, expressing concerns that I might be sucking energy away from my clients. They assured me this was not true. After I was made aware of the blessings of Asian massage, I began to pay more attention. It was obvious to me that the more I gave massages, the more I got out of them.
Over the years, I realized that giving an Asian massage can be a bit like meditation. For at least an hour, I focus on the person I'm working on and their body. Because of the amount of focus I place on a massage, I sometimes get startled by loud noises or other things while I'm working.
I began asking around to find out if other Asian massage therapists had the same experience with Asian Massages. It was a resounding "yes"! This is very exciting. As you can see, it wasn't just me. I spoke to massage therapist friends and asked them about the benefits of giving massages. This is the body rubs.
- People love to see you
- It is so great to hear that massage has helped people do better.
- It's not necessary to be seated while I work
- I believe I promote healthy lifestyle choices
- I receive a lot of compliments about my work.
- You can trade with others for massages, haircuts, waxing, and computer work
- Teaching people about their bodies
- Being able offer advice and referrals, e.g. certain doctors for MRIs or X rays
- Uninterrupted time, without phone, email, or knocking.
- To relax, I go to work.
One Asian massage therapist said that she felt jealous that someone else was on the table. We are all humans after body rubs.
This is an impressive list of benefits that can be applied to any job. Ask your therapist what you are getting from an Asian massage the next time you go for one. You can be sure they will answer enthusiastically: TONS!
