The Versatile Customer: Types of Customers You Meet in Our Massage Practice

Massage is an art, and just like any artist, you will deal with a wide range of clients in our practice. From the serious athlete to the laid-back yogi, here are some typical clients you might encounter:

1. The Stress Chicken
   This customer comes in with his shoulders on his ears and a face that resembles a button. They have drunk more coffee than water in recent months and are convinced that their muscle tension is the result of their 'super busy' lives. You'll have your hands full transforming this stress ball into a relaxing bag of happy muscles!
2. The Sporty Warrior
   You recognize them immediately: the sweat on their forehead, the sports shoes that have never been washed and a smile that says: “I'm back!” These customers come for a firm sports massage after an intense training or marathon. They are determined to knead every muscle group, giving you the opportunity to work like a true ninja.
3. The Relaxed Yogi
   With a serene smile and the scent of essential oils surrounding them, this customer usually walks in saying, “I'm here for the relaxation.” Their only request? A soft touch and a bit of zen. As you massage their muscles, it seems as if you are also putting them into a state of deeper meditation.
4. The Complaint-of-the-Day Customer
   This customer always has a new pain. “My shoulder hurts,” “my back is stiff,” or “can you do something about my feet?” It seems like they have a subscription to inconveniences! But, once you solve their 'problems', they happily disappear with a big smile on their face.
5. The Always Stiff Neck
   You know, that customer who comes back every week with the same complaint: “My neck is always stiff.” Despite your every attempt to relieve those knots, their neck seems to think it has a secret that no one is allowed to discover. Anyway, their persistence is admirable, even if their necks don't want to cooperate!
6. The Pamperer
   This customer mainly comes for the luxurious feeling and complete relaxation. They enjoy every minute of their massage and are often the first to ask for extra attention to their favorite areas. They want to be completely pampered and are usually willing to pay a little extra for that.
7. The 'Why Not?' Customer
   These are the adventurous souls who have taken the road to our practice without a specific reason. “I've never had a massage before, so why not?” are often their words. It is always nice to welcome them and introduce them to the world of relaxation.

Conclusion

Whether they come for relaxation, recovery or just to have a good conversation, every client brings their own unique energy to our practice. Massage is not only a physical treatment, but also an opportunity to connect with the people around you. So, whoever you meet, remember: every massage is a new experience, and that's what makes our job so much fun!
