Yep true story!  😊 So you got to remember I'm new to the clinic and before that we as students practiced on each other. So in comes this woman "Mona ." Ok so I'm naive not knowing what to expect from her or any other person I touch and massage. Well imagine to my surprise as I'm massaging Mona and she's telling me ," deeper deeper... that's it ! She starts t o MOAN ... I'm like what the h$#@?  😲 She gets louder and louder .. I'm  ready to walk out ..really disgusts me! Now keep in mind we are in cubicles beside another massage therapist working on their person. I hear giggles and laughter from those cubicles! OK WHAT WOULD YOU DO? 🤔 I guess I panicked and stopped her session early.  Yeah thanks fellow therapist
