My T suggested that I try massage for my migraine and neck issues....and at first, it was a NO WAY! He knows I have HUGE touch issues.
But eventually, I did end up giving it a try. He recommended someone in his office, and one of the hardest parts for me was admitting to the massage therapist that I have serious touch issues....I felt so embarrassed by that. I felt weak and exposed....
We talked quite a few times on the phone, by text and face-to-face before I even gave it a try. When I went those few times, I would be totally clothed...and the massage was limited to my head and neck.
My biggest problem with it, though, was staying in the moment and enjoying the physical sensations. I would tend to let my mind wander to the point where I'm not even feeling the massage, like I escape from it...
