It's Ok to Snore, Its Your Hour...

or half hour, or hour and a half.
One of my goals with writing this blog is to let people know things about massage that they might not otherwise get to know.
It really is your treatment session, how you choose to spend it is entirely up to you. I personally think that the massage recipient is the one who dictates how each session is going to go. I do like to have a couple minutes of catching up on recent weekends, any holidays that have come and gone, or are on the horizon, and anything else of importance pertaining to your life right now... if you want to share. If you are comfortable enough with me to share your life story or just a tale or two, I love to listen. How you answer, when you stop talking, what you choose to talk about are all leads for me; as soon as you are quiet, so am I (aside from asking you to move when I need you to, or to let you know that our time for the day has come to an end, which I doubt anyone really wants to hear).
As far as sleeping goes, its great when someone is relaxed enough, and comfortable enough with me to fall asleep on my table.  I never, ever mind, it lets your body tell me what to do with out your conscious mind interfering, and your muscles truly let me know if I am using too much pressure, and when a technique is actually painful. I promise I don't mind at all if a lot (or a little) snoring happens. In fact I consider it a complement. I also know that these days, everyone is trying to move a hundred miles a minute, and multi-multi-tasking. When we have an allotted amount of time that we get to have, focused on our well being, I think our bodies and minds just want the rest.
So ultimately, remember that you never have to apologize for talking throughout the whole session, or for falling asleep, it is your time, spend it the way you feel is best for you.
