This is so true! š¤£š¤£
⨠Things that drive me absolutely NUTS during an appointment š«£š
Because contrary to popular belief, I am not always floating around the Cocoon in a state of zen-like bliss⦠sometimes Iām internally SCREAMING š¤£
š§ Alexa - doing her own bloody thing, volume up, volume down, then deciding we need a completely different song. Alexa. Babe. Read. The. Room!
š The builders - starting up machinery, ugh! Youāre finally in that deliciously relaxed, floaty state and then ā¦RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
THANKS, LADS!
šŖ¶ The hair - That one tiny, pesky little hair that has somehow attached itself to my hand and REFUSES to leave. Iām trying to give you a blissful massage while secretly having a full-on battle with a strand of human hair š
š«£ A newbie client and my sudden inability to function!! - Naturally I want to make the best first impression. Soooo obviously Iāll immediately drop something, walk into the bed, knock something over or forget where Iāve put the thing that was literally in my hand 4 seconds ago. Hi šš» Welcome. This is professional š¤¦š¼āāļø
šŖµ The floor/bed creaking - OH. MY. GOD. Why does it suddenly sound like Iām working inside a haunted Victorian house?! And once Iāve heard it⦠Iām terrified to move again.
ā° When I completely zone out - Iām happily massaging away totally in the flow⦠and then suddenly realise I have absolutely no idea what time it is, how long Iāve been working on that shoulder or whether Iāve accidentally been massaging the same bit since Tuesday š«
𤧠The itch! - When my own nose suddenly starts itching or worse, needs a sneeze! Because obviously I canāt just scratch it when youāre mid-massage. So now I have to mentally negotiate with my own face for the next few minutes š
. . But despite all the chaos, you still get melted, relaxed and floated out of the Cocoon š„°āØ Because apparently I can create a deeply relaxing experience, while simultaneously fighting for my life behind the scenes š¤£š
