Is there anything you wonder about but feel a bit daft asking?!

Massages - face down top off. Does the top have to be off? Everything off, baps out?!

Anyone else want to ask anything? (Can’t sleep!!)

If you turn over onto your back, a folded towel can be placed over your breasts.

When you go to a Chiropodist, do they let you wash your feet first? I'd love to go to one but my feet stink.

Can I have a pedicure if I have a fungal toenail?

Massage therapist goes out of the room, you take your top and bra off, wrap a towel around your back, and lie on the table on your front. You pull out the two ends of the towel so its draped over you instead of wrapped around, your baps are underneath you as you're lying on your front so nothing to see there. Therapist will knock on door and ask if you're ready, then its face in the hole and arms down by your sides. Therapist folds down the towel to get access to your back then when they're finished they lift it back up to cover you while you have 15-20 mins relax before getting dressed again.

But from the minute you get undressed to actually lying down, are you covering your breasts? Is the masseuse watching all this? (And thinking WTF am I dealing with here Hmm )

The masseuse isn't in the room. They show you to the room, then they leave while you get undressed and get on the table, they come back once you're lying down and covered.

And if you need to roll onto your back as part of a massage, the therapist holds the towel in front of their face so you can roll over without being seen. Then they lower it back down over your chest without looking. They might massage the top of your chest but the towel will cover your baps.

I thought that said messages not massages 😳🤣 it wasn’t only when I read the post about putting a towel over your breasts and wondered what kind of sexting fetish I had missed that I realised 🙈😂

IsobelRae23 · 28/07/2019 03:05

@CaptainGregson Me too! I read it about 10
Times thinking of the song that goes ‘face down, ass up, that’s the way I like to ’ and getting really confused because it didn’t make sense!

I'm relocating soon and have a new car. I've realised I don't know whether it's straightforward to just transfer aftercare, services etc to tge local dealership.

I feel a bit of a doofus for being awake at 3am thinking about this, but it's never cropped up for me before.

I mean, the brand is the brand and presumably there is recipriocity between branches? But are they franchises? Is it more complicated?

notso - I've just discovered the joys of nice feet with painted nails, after having a fungal nail infection for years. Tried everything, and eventually got a GP prescription for Terbinafine. I love having feet I'm not embarrassed about!

De-rail over!

EBearhug · 28/07/2019 03:27

Also depends on the sort of massage - the one I go to offers a seated back and shoulders massage with clothes (you'd take off any jumper or jacket, so it's just one layer.) I think it's better with clothes off, but if you're not comfortable with that, you might still be able to have a massage. Any decent massage place will be totally respectful of your dignity.

Take an example of you having a kia. Go onto Google and search Kia dealerships in Greenshire just phone one up when your service is due or some repairs and they will happily add you onto their system. If you have a service plan just ask if they accept them and if not ring the next closest usually though they will all accept a service plan if theyre a main dealer

RubberTreePlant · 28/07/2019 09:32

So it's really that simple and i'm massively overthinking it? Grin

Thanks @S0CKS

FancifulFeathers · 28/07/2019 20:57

I’m totally booking a massage soon and no more overthinking it for me!
