Frequently Asked Questions CLIENT: "I'M A MESS….CAN YOU TELL HOW TIGHT MY MUSCLES ARE?" Massage therapist's response: "We should never view the body as a "mess." We may possibly work on muscles feeling more resistant, but "tight" might indicate strong, toned muscles, and for our touch, we are trained to keep an open mind. It is possible that the sorest muscles are not those most pronounced." CLIENT: "I HAVE A REALLY HIGH PAIN TOLERANCE." erapist: "If you say you have a high pain tolerance, we might sug- gest that you have had to function while in a lot of pain. Instead, we might ask you to view pain as 'the messenger' and value your observa- tions as keen guidance as to what your body needs." CLIENT: "YOU'RE THE EXPERT. I'VE NEVER HAD A "REAL" MASSAGE." erapist: "Your body is actually 'the expert'. It takes a mixture of effort on the parts of both giver and receiver to unwind the body's own protective mechanisms." CLIENT: "HOW DO I KNOW MY MASSAGE THERAPIST IS SKILLED?" erapist: Ask for recommendations. According to the State Depart- ment of Labor & Industry, there are 1,427 licensed massage therapists in Montana.
