There is massage and there is Thai massage.
When my brother-in-law said yesterday he had the best Thai massage ever and as I love being massaged and a good massage comes into the category of being totally and completely spoilt, I booked the classic massage with the same native Thai girl without delay. For 60 minutes no less. The mattress on the floor looked very comfortable and the pants with a matching top I was asked to change into 3 sizes too big, just as I like my comfort wear to be.I never try on clothes in a shop, buy everything a size larger than I need and thus can never go wrong with anything.It all started so well.And slowly the dimly lit lovely smelling room became a torture chamber. Lying on my stomach I was pressed by knees and elbows and hands in bits I never thought I had.The pain in my thighs at times excruciating.When I was asked to turn over I thought things could only get better. Now I know never to count the chickens...Where and when have I acquired all the little tiddly muscles that hurt so much when being squeezed? For donkeys years I have lived happily without them and suddenly here they are letting me know at every which turn they have been neglected and the time has come for me to pay! The massage of the back, the arms, the neck and the head was as I had expected it to be.
Being a glutton for punishment have booked an hour with the same masseuse for tomorrow, only this time I have craftily selected a massage with aromatic oils.She will not be able to pinch with greasy hands quite so much.
