Hey, I'm the massage therapist here. I'll comment.

12-14 hour days of massage? You won't last a year. He has nerve damage. That isn't a joke. I've met a MT who ignored the pain in his hands. He has no palm muscles left; they have atrophied due to the nerve damage.

And you quickly don't see "beauty on the table"... all you see are muscles and skin. If you are working and thinking "god, she's beautiful", well, you are no longer giving a good massage.

(By the way, they didn't hire a real MT to shoot the ad. He wouldn't get hired for anything with that technique. And what the hell kind of position was that at 0:23 with the girl resting on her forearms? You can't work on muscles that are in active contraction! Even the position at 0:20 annoys me; her neck is all torqued.)

Sorry if I just killed the thread. Please continue, or question me, or something...
