In my 10 years of doing massage I have never encountered a person like this before though. Every once in a while I get someone that farts unacceptably and I would never judge, we ALL get it.
In this case, I get this very nice, petite little woman who you would think could never do anything atrocious, but she proved me WRONG. As soon as I started to work on her back thighs the gas started coming. I couldn't believe the sounds that came from that lady. I just thank God that it didn't smell, but the sounds did not stop. It kept coming from one leg to the other. Sounds that you only hear from a Star Wars movie. Again her small stature amazed me with the noise that came from within. But the one thing that totally bothered me, was that she never said anything. No "Excuse Me", "Sorry", or "My Bad"........ NOTHING.
So my suggestions. As a therapist you really can't say or do anything, GAS HAPPENS. For the client, please DO NOT eat something the day before or the day of your massage that makes you gassy. We've all been there, where gas just happens and you can't stop it. But if you are about to receive a massage please be courteous to yourself and your massage therapist and be aware of what you are putting in to your body so that you know what is going to be coming out of it.
