There is a dizzying array of massage therapies out there and it can be hard to know which type to choose and which is going to be of benefit to you. The first question to ask yourself is: What do I want to get out of the massage? You could be in need of a little bit of relaxation and pampering; alternatively, you could have a tight neck, shoulder or back and need the muscles released. Some massage therapies even provide emotional release so you may need to consider if this is what you are after.
