Conclusion

It is not an easy job to be a masseuse because there are certain legal risks attached to it. A masseuse deals directly with the body muscles and nerves; a wrong press can lead to severe effects, even paralysis. Even though a massage therapy cures pain and relaxes muscles, it might also lead to severe pain or cramps in affected areas, if not treated properly.

A masseuse needs to have the environment comfortable enough to encourage calmness. It needs to be attractive, promote a relaxing feel and be soothing to the mind. The objective of a massage therapy is not just squeezing of the affected areas, it is the overall experience.

The masseuse needs to understand his patient, identify the stress points and target them carefully; to relax the muscles and drive stress out of the body, keeping in mind the sensitive areas and side effects of irregular pressure on the pressure points.
