The Massage

Justin got me a gift certificate for a massage for my birthday and I redeemed it yesterday. Ahhh...

The certificate was for a one hour massage at The Buckhead Massage Company. It had been nearly five years since I'd had a massage and oh, wow, did I forget how wonderful it was. I wish I could afford to do that daily.

I checked in and was very quickly introduced to the masseuse who would be working with me. I changed clothes, slipped underneath the blankets, and waited for a minute. I should mention that this was my first massage by a male. I was told when I made the appointment that I would be seeing a male. I thought about waiting for an appointment with a female, but decided to just go with it. I'm glad I did. When I've been massaged in the past, I have discovered that I really enjoy deep tissue massage. This sounds weird, but if I'm not a little sore the next day, then I don't feel the massage was deep enough. Parts of my back and shoulders are sore today. Yay! I have a lot of tension in my shoulders and back and Jaimyn really worked hard in these areas.

It's amazing how fast that hour sped by! I swear massage parlors move the clocks ahead because it seemed like I had only been in the room for ten minutes when he said, "You're done." I was so lazy after that and didn't want to do anything that might "ruin" how I felt after the massage.

Hint, hint...I would love to go back.
