    As a massage therapist, I’m also willing to accept “human primate social groomer” over “body toucher.” Not sure that potential clients would appreciate that much more though 😕.

      I went from from anthropology to massage therapy (and am very happy for it) and I’m glad I’m not the only one who sees the social grooming aspect lol

      I’m a massage therapist too and yesterday I had a client who could easily qualify as a “primate in need of grooming.” So. Much. Body. Hair & skin grime 🤢 I know we’re supposed to love everybody but I love people most when they practice good grooming & hygiene before they come to get a massage.
