I just started seeing a female osteopath for a chronic neck and

shoulder injury and had the first session on Tuesday. This is the

second time I have sought the help of an osteopath for my problem -

the last time being with a male therapist. I'm also male.

 

To make a long story short, I was recommended the place from an

associate and from all accounts - e.g., my own research on the

place - it's top of the line. However I had a somewhat *potentially

embarrassing* experience during the last session, namely, on a

couple of occasions I started getting mildly aroused. I don't think

it was noticeable. However what was noticeable was my shaking to

prevent my arousal, which she somewhat alluded to.

 

The session was long so it wasn't really a problem most of the time,

but there were a couple occasions during where I was shaking really

badly and where things could have gotten a bit " embarrassing " .

 

Now I've seen all sorts of physical therapists - MTs, Chiropractors,

Osteopaths, etc - over the years for this condition and have rarely

experienced this problem. In fact, I only recall experiencing a

similar situation with one other (massage) therapist, also a

female. And most of the therapists I've seen over the years for my

condition have been females - only 3 or 4 I recall being male. So

this isn't usually an issue.

 

I also find that female therapist are better listeners than males -

which is partly the reason why I left my former osteopath, who was

working pretty well with my neck. He didn't listen to me and tended

to do as he pleased - which most of the time worked alright but some

of the time, didn't.

 

So this is one reason why I prefer - or rather seem drawn towards,

at least lately - female physical therapists; the other reason is

that there are just more of them.

 

Yet there is also this potential " issue " I'm now concerned about,

what with the previous experience with the massage therapist and now

with this osteopath.

 

So I guess my question is:

 

1) is this a big deal or something I should be concerned about? 2)

If something (G-d forbid) was to happen during the session, how

should I handle it?

 

I guess I'm also worried that by being uptight and self conscious

about getting aroused - and the therapist noticing it - I'm taking

away from the therapy for my neck, which I what I'm there to get.

 

3) In which case, should I find another therapist - perhaps the guy

I was seeing before? Or does she realize what is going on when I'm

shaking and maybe is just being professional about the whole thing?

 

Comments, suggestions, advice - appreciated.

 

thanks...

Try pleasuring yourself before you go to your next session. I am female.
