I’ve noticed more of my male clients are asking about how massage can support their overall health, especially as they juggle fitness goals, stress, and recovery. It’s got me curious how are other massage therapists integrating men’s health principles into their practice?
For example, I’ve started incorporating more targeted techniques for areas like shoulders and lower back, which seem to hold a lot of tension for guys who lift or sit at a desk all day. But I’d love to hear how others are approaching this. Are there specific modalities or stretches you’ve found effective? Or even ways to educate clients on how regular massage fits into a broader wellness plan?
Also, since many men are focused on performance and recovery, I’m wondering if anyone has tips for blending massage with yoga therapy concepts like breathwork or mobility work to enhance results. Open to any insights or experiences you’ve had!
