I'm a man and not very tactile. Are there any treatments that don't involve touch?
Men are often concerned about the touchy-feely aspect of spa treatments, but once you've got the taste for it, you'll wonder what held you back in the first place.
For some men, it's hard to believe that their partner is giving them permission to be rubbed, scrubbed and indulged by another woman! The same applies to gay guys being treated by a male masseur.
If you're worried that you'll feel uncomfortable with someone touching you, remember: therapists tend to be well trained, professional and experienced. The way you are touched during a massage or facial is not the same as being flirted with, nor is your personal space invaded. The therapist, the environment and the music are all designed to put you at ease.
If you are really worried, why not go for a treatment that doesn't involve anyone else but is still a great experience, such as a serail mud chamber? Once you've got what spa-going is about, you'll probably feel a lot more comfortable about trying a new treatment. And then another... And eventually you'll wonder what you were worried about.
