I went for my massage today. It wasn't at all what I was expecting!
Can't you get a massage anymore where you lay there and they massage the achy parts?!
I had to fill out a form. Then sit there while she asked me a hoard of medical questions, then put me through a bunch of range of motion assessments.
Then she had me lay on my back while she pressed on my pecs and moved my arm in all kinds of directions. Then she deviated my wind pipe where I had a bit of difficulty breathing while she dug around behind it at some muscle.
She spent about 10 minutes of the 50 minute massage on my upper back and shoulders. And about 5 minutes for each foot.
It was "ok". I felt less achy in general and my feet did feel better. But it was more like "exercise" than massage at times!
I was expecting to just lay there comfortably on my stomach while she massaged my back, neck, shoulders and feet for a entire hour.
