Much needed body massage

Unlike last time, I started the body massage session much earlier, at week 4. The last time was month 3. I started the first session on 18 Jan.

It was initially a 7 days course. I shortened to 5 days because of CNY as I didn't want any break in between. Then, on day 4, the massage lady texted me to inform me that her aunt passed away and she had to attend her funeral. So, it became 4 days massage package of $68 per session.

This lady was recommended by a shop assistant and I would say that her massage skill is good. There was not much pain and she knows exactly which part of my body is aching just by massaging! That amazed me as she was quite spot-on! I had started feeding B these few days (confinement lady has left) and those very spots that she pointed were places where I developed pains due to the feeding position.

On top of massaging, she was also not selfish to "impart" some of her skills to me. She taught me how to massage my arms, neck and stomach and how to massage B so that she's not so colicky. She also told me that I had no water retention which I was happy to hear that. :)

However, her binding skills weren't so good. Not quite what I was looking for! She told me that I was the first one who did a C-sect and showed effect on the second day of massage! That speaks of how good her binding was! Her binding cloth was long and she had to fold it over my hip to make it shorter. That made me very uncomfortable as the folded edge cuts into my hips! While others provided the binder at the end of the session, she took back and reuse the binder on others!

I also don't like the oily feeling after massage... I don't know why it doesn't really work on me (I wonder why?), it only at most relieve some of the stress from my body.
