Massaging Back

Is it gross to give a Back Massage to an obese person?

I have sometimes thought about going to a massage therapist to get a back massage to reduce stress, but I’m very heavy and I worry that the person would be totally grossed out to massage me.

Any professional massage therapists who can give an opinion on whether I should try it or not?

Don’t worry about it. We see all sorts of things. It isn’t any harder to massage overweight people. Just go do it.
