Members enthusiastically shared their love of massages in response to the question about enjoying the art of massage, with deep tissue and Swedish styles being the most popular choices. Several members described massages as essential for stress relief, muscle relaxation, and overall well-being, while others noted the challenge of affording them regularly, with tips shared about finding student pricing, school clinics like Aveda, and more affordable options at Asian-owned spas. A recurring theme was that massages feel deeply restorative for both the body and mind, with many wishing they could enjoy them more often if cost were not a barrier.

Love massages. They are so relaxing, and helps to relieve the stress. Some may even have Happy Endings.

When I lived in San Diego I use to drive to Tijuana, and. Don Juve gave the bestest deep tissue massage. He has very big strong hands. It hurt like hell and even made me scream when he used his elbow to take out a knot on my left shoulder.

Half hour of lots of pain for $35 but it was like having an oil change and very well worth it.

I wondered why my physical therapist who massaged my glutes yesterday gave me water at the end.
