I just had to share an experience that I had a few weeks ago. I had injured my shoulder and was in quite a bit of pain and discomfort. Normally I can get physio through my employer, but at this point there were no appointments available. I decided to see if I could find some help on my own. I did a Google search for local massage/physio services and ended up with a service much better than I expected.
The advert I replied to was posted by a lady going by the name Kat, (the ad said that this was not a sexual service, so I was not expecting anything abnormal). I explained my problem and she told me that she would be able to help me and gave me an appointment for that afternoon. When I arrived at the address that she gave me I found that it was a private flat. She took me into a room set up with a massage table, oils and towels etc. set up on a small table. The room had soft lights and music playing.
I found out from her that she was Polish and had moved to Scotland a couple of years ago, I then proceeded to tell her about my injury and other pains that I had in my lower back, I thought that she said that you will have a happy finish, meaning that I would be happy with my treatment. She told me to strip off my clothes and lie face down on the table and she would be back in a couple of minutes. I proceeded to do as told and striped lay on the table and covered my bottom with a small towel that had been on the edge of the table.
When she returned she proceeded to give me a massage starting at my ankles and working up my calf's, she continued up my legs until she reached the bottom of my buttocks. She then moved onto my lower back and gave me a good deep workout, saying that she could feel the tightness in my muscles, after a period of time she gradually moved higher up till she got to my shoulders and the injury that I had, she once again commented about being able to feel the difference and proceeded to give this area a good long massage. As she eased off and started to work lower she asked me how I was feeling, I told her that it was feeling a lot better. She then said that she wouldn't do any more work on the problem areas but would finish off my time by giving me a relaxing massage.
