Getting a Massage 1 


Robert: Why are you twisting your back like that? 


Staci: I’m in pain. My back and shoulders really hurt. I think it’s from sitting at this computer all the time. 


Robert: What you need is a good massage. It can get rid of the knots in your muscles and get you some pain relief. 


Staci: I don’t know. I don’t like the idea of getting naked in front of a stranger. 


Robert: If you’re skittish 2 about that, remember that you’ll be covered with a sheet, except for the part that he or she is working on. It’s not a big deal. 


Staci: But what if they’re too rough with me? It might make things worse. 


Robert: An experienced massage therapist will ask you the amount of pressure you want and you can speak up if you don’t like what he or she is doing. 


Staci: Do you think a massage could really help me? 


Robert: Definitely. I recommend my massage therapist. She’s licensed 3 and very good. 


Staci: She doesn’t use smelly oils or play hokey music during the massage, does she? 


Robert: No, she doesn’t. She’s very professional, without being too clinical, if you know what I mean. Call her! 


Staci: I’ll think about it – ouch! 


Robert: Call her right now. You don’t have a minute to lose!
