Therapeutic Bodywork

Posted by lifeworthliving on May 2, 2004, at 18:34:05

i get massages a few times a month from a massage therapist. i can't remember what they are called but it's specific strokes etc. and the point is to find, feel, and express. i'm very uncomfy sometimes (feel too naked, etc) but always feel safe, and it does feel constructive... like it's worth the discomfort. lately i've complained a lot (per massage therp) and she feels resentful (can't do her job)as i ask her to leave stuff out, or to skip that part (stomach, esp. she sort of got angry last time and basically put me on restriction. lol
i got back in and made an appt. for next week. she called today and asked what i thought about staying dressed next time and allowing my talk therp in the appt. thinking about it too much makes me nervous but i do know that i'll be ok. has anyone done bodywork before and with their therapist in the room? it was explained to me that massage person will be support now and my therapist will lead the session. they last two hours... i'm having a hard time imagining what this will look like. i like the part about leaving my clothes on. lol
