Why "Masseuse" and "Stewardess" are Outdated

The term masseuse is a French word that literally means "female practitioner of massage." Its male counterpart is masseur. In modern, professional settings, the use of these terms has become outdated. This is because the titles focus on gender rather than the professional's qualifications, which can feel discriminatory and demeaning.

Similarly, the term stewardess refers to a female flight attendant. Its male counterpart is "steward." Over time, the industry shifted to the gender-neutral term flight attendant to acknowledge that the profession is open to all genders and to emphasize the professional role, not the individual's sex.

Professional Alternatives

To ensure you're using respectful and accurate language, it's best to use gender-neutral and professional titles. Here are a few examples:

Instead of "masseuse" or "masseur," use:

Massage Therapist
Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT)
Registered Massage Therapist (RMT) (common in Canada)

Instead of "stewardess" or "steward," use:

Flight Attendant
Cabin Crew Member

What are a few risks of Professional Massage Therapy?

Professional Massage Therapy is generally safe, but there are a few potential risks, such as:

Bruising: Bruising is a common side effect of deep tissue massage, especially if you are new to it. The bruising should go away on its own within a few days.
Soreness: You may experience some soreness after a deep tissue massage, but this should also go away within a few days.
Allergic reaction: If you are allergic to massage oil, you may experience an allergic reaction. Be sure to tell your therapist if you have any allergies.

Who should Consult with their Primary Care Provider Before Inquiring for a Professional Massage by a Licensed Massage Therapist?

Deep tissue massage is not recommended for people with certain medical conditions, such as:

Blood clots: Deep tissue massage can increase blood flow, which could increase the risk of blood clots.
Open wounds: Deep tissue massage can irritate open wounds.
Osteoporosis: Deep tissue massage can put stress on bones, which could be dangerous for people with osteoporosis.
Cancer: Deep tissue massage may not be safe for people with cancer.

Side Effects and Risks

Cupping therapy is generally considered safe when performed by a trained professional. However, potential side effects and risks include:

Temporary Marks and Bruising:

The most common side effect is the appearance of round, red, or purplish marks on the skin, which can last for a week or two. These are not true bruises that injure muscle fibers but rather indicate the expansion and breaking of tiny blood vessels.

Skin Redness, Irritation, or Mild Discomfort:

The suction can cause local skin reactions.

Burns:

Especially with fire cupping if not performed correctly.

Infections:

More likely with wet cupping due to the skin being punctured. Proper sterilization of equipment is crucial to prevent the spread of bloodborne diseases.

Scars or Blisters:

Though less common, these can occur.

Worsening of existing skin conditions:

Such as eczema or psoriasis.

Dizziness, Nausea, Fatigue, or Fainting:

These are rare but possible individual reactions.

Anemia:

In rare cases, after repeated wet cupping due to blood loss.

Bleeding inside the skull:

Extremely rare, reported after cupping on the scalp.
