My boyfriend has been out in Washington State for Army training for the past five weeks. I know he's going to be very sore and he has trouble with back pain to begin with, so I am considering getting him a gift certificate for a massage to a local spa. I've been to the spa a few times for massages and loved it. My concern is that, as any overly-sweet-yet-unsure boyfriend would say, he claims that I "give the best massages" and he doesn't want one from "another woman". I just know that I'm no professional here, and seeing one for his back pain would definitely alleviate some tension and stress. Go with the gift certif or no? Guys, would you go if your woman gave you one?

It's just a massage. You're not sending him to a hooker. Relax.

I'd go if my woman gave me one, but a pro doesn't put the love into it like my woman would. That's all she is, a pro. My woman doing it would be a way to show she loves me.

Heck yeah but set one up for you two so you both can get it at the same time, he may feel more comfortable if you're with him..

My man LOVES me, loves my massages, and from time to time he does get a professional massage, for some neck/shoulder problems.It's no more weird than going out to eat at some fancy restaurant when you can cook at home.

I'm not a guy, but I think that's a good gift idea. If you think he'll be standoffish about it...maybe you could get a 'couples massage' appointment and you can both go together. He may feel much more at ease if he thinks it's something for you as a couple.

I've gone twice recently. Once by myself, and then i enjoyed it so i took my girlfriend as well. I was pretty sore, so i got over any wierdness about a guy going to get a message. He will enjoy it, and just to make it that much sweeter, you could go too. Either do a couples thing ( you could be next to each other in the same room) or just buy yourself one too. Why not treat yourself while you think of something nice for him.Hope he does it.

go ask for one and ask if it is returnable if you buy it in advance and he refuses to go. nothing else get one along with him to make him feel more at ease and make it a romantic retreat after relaxing. i would go 4 it!
