There is nothing glamorous about being a massage therapist when seasonal allergies decide to make an appearance in the middle of a treatment. When your nose starts running uncontrollably, with no tissue box within reach, maintaining a professional demeanor becomes an unexpected challenge.
I spent much of the session hoping my client would keep their eyes closed long enough for me to make a discreet trip across the room to grab a tissue. By the end of the day, I couldn't get out of work fast enough!
Hopefully, we will get some rain soon to clear the dust and allergens out of the air. Until then, massage therapists everywhere can only hope their allergies cooperate as well as their clients do.
