The therapeutic relationship or -massage hangzhou container (we will refer to as the therapeutic container from now on) is the space you are able to create or provide for your client during a massage session. This container is a safe space for your client to experience and express emotions while being supported and comforted and without fear of shame or abandonment. Here we will attempt to make this abstract idea more concrete and easily implementable in your practice.

The 'space' referred to above is an emotional, mental, and spiritual space that requires the consent and participation of both the client and the therapist. As therapists it is our responsibility to make this space as available, expansive, and secure for the client as we possibly can.

This means that we accept into this space what-massage in hangzhou we can handle and keep out that which we cannot hxt0lhw. This is especially true when we are well bounded, dynamically bounded. If our boundaries are too open an experience may find its way to us that we feel unprepared for. A natural reaction to feeling overwhelmed is to retreat into yourself and away from the overwhelming stimulus.

If the emotional situation is overwhelming to you, the massage therapist, then you must break the container and not remain in the situation. Perhaps this means that you simply aren't willing to discuss something with a client and that's the end of it. It might be that you need to leave the room. I recommend trying to find a 'soft' reason to leave, like you need water, instead of telling the client that they are scarring you.
