Why Do More Women Get Massages Than Men?

Why do women book more massages than men? The answer reveals fascinating insights about gender, health perceptions, and missed opportunities for wellness. In this candid conversation, Tammy Cox, Director of Reflections of Health School of Massage, tackles the psychological barriers preventing men from experiencing the transformative benefits of therapeutic touch.

Many men mistakenly view massage as merely "pampering" rather than legitimate healthcare—a misconception that keeps them from accessing powerful benefits including stress reduction, improved circulation, and accelerated muscle recovery. Athletes have already discovered these advantages, incorporating regular massage into training regimens for peak performance. Yet for the average man, hesitation persists.

Tammy addresses the elephant in the room that many men worry about: the possibility of involuntary physical responses during treatment. With professional insight, she explains how licensed massage therapists receive extensive ethics training to handle such situations discreetly and respectfully. The conversation demystifies the massage experience, explaining everything from proper draping techniques to the difference between deep tissue massage and deep pressure—a distinction that could save first-timers considerable discomfort. You'll even learn about the euphoric "massage drunk" feeling that follows a great session as endorphins flood your system.
