Finally got that spot booked for much needed bodyrubs? Here’s how to have the best experience.

Oftentimes, bodyrubs are an indulgence. Something a bit special. They’re usually moderately expensive, and if your practitioner is good- they’re well worth the cost. But it’s just not something that many of us get to have on a weekly basis, so it’s important to know how to make the most of our splurge.

“Getting the most out of your bodyrubs is a 50/50. 50% of what you bring to the table, and 50% what your masseur can bring.” Says the expert at Elite Indulgence, a premier purveyor of bodyrubs. “It’s important that you choose the right masseuse, someone you trust and feel comfortable with, but that goes both ways. The bodyrub expert you choose needs to feel the same way about you.” She goes on to tell us her five best tips to get the most out of bodyrubs, every time.

Think About Your Schedule

“Choose a time of day where you can actually relax.” Elite Indulgence suggests choosing appointments that are later in the evening, or earlier in the day, possibly after your workout. Essentially, she suggests finding a time of day where you won’t be concerned about your to-do list, and you can really just concentrate on unwinding.

Hold Off on That Meal

“Don’t eat or drink any heavy foods before your appointment. They can induce sleepiness or gastric distress that will only detract from your experience.” So even though it’s a treat day, hold off on indulging in that special meal until you’ve finished your appointment.

Make Your Therapist Happy

“The best way to get the most out of bodyrubs, is to be considerate of your masseuse. If they feel cared for, respected, and comfortable, you absolutely will feel these things as well.” Always make sure to shower and groom appropriately before your appointment. Being clean is one of the best ways to show respect to your bodyrub specialist. Small gifts like flowers or candy are also appreciated, but most of all, just let them know you’re happy to be there.

Be Open

“Bodyrubs are a hugely emotional experience. It’s a really intimate process, so it helps if you’re open to that part of the therapy.” If you’re just booking to snag a quick orgasm, there are definitely better ways to spend your money. Be open to being vulnerable and really ready to relax and let go of some defenses.

Allow for Trust

Choosing the right bodyrub masseuse can be a massive boon to your entire experience, and the booking process can serve to give you a decent look into what to expect. If you haven’t worked with that particular expert before, ask them about their privacy policies and confidentiality. Make sure that the rooms they offer have all the comforts you need to be able to really be open and honest during your appointment.

Getting the best massage does rely a bit on your specialist- but it also relies on you, and your expectations. Let your bodyrub masseuse be your guide and be excited about seeing just how far you can go.
