Today I had the chance to visit a blind massage therapist in Vietnam's Ho Chi Minh City for one of the STRONGEST and heavy handed deep tissue sessions I’ve ever experienced.
He worked deep into my neck and shoulders with serious pressure, followed by traditional Tam Quat rhythmic punches across my upper back. The session also included a head massage and arm and hand massage, and he even attempted to crack my arms.
No talking during the massage, just the natural sounds of the massage and the full experience for those unintentional ASMR fans. My neck definitely felt it the next day.
Have you ever tried a traditional Vietnamese massage like this?
(I apologise for the unshaved and unkempt look, it was about 8am in the morning, so I was very sleepy! 😂)
