Is it weird to get a massage at work?

Some people find it hard to picture getting a massage at work.
This is often because their idea of the traditional concept of a massage doesn’t match with a
​workplace activity.
If you can’t quite picture the break room or supply closet being transformed into an essential-oil scented haven with meditation music pumping out of the walls, we don’t blame you.

No hot stones, no getting naked under a sheet and no elevator music playing in the background.
