The Good, The Bad and The Ugly of Massage Gels
Hello out there! I am a new Massage therapist and I have only used two diffrent Massage Gels before. I have also tried oils, Creams, and Lotions. By far Gel is my favorite. I have used Biotone and I am not really sure what the other kind is Nutro organic something like that. So I was wondering what your Favorite Brand is and why ? Also do you know of any deals on massage gel? Do you know of any affordable massage gels that you feel are no diffrent then an expensive one? Anyways Affordable..... Expensive I want to know all of it. The good, The Bad and The Ugly of Massage Gels. You know what lets not discriminate I want to also know if you like oils, creams, Lotions and or gels better too.
Don't be afraid to post links to you favorite massage gel or whatever you like to use.

I can't make a comment on massage gels, as I haven't tried them but I have used massage wax for a long time. In fact, I was trying to think when I made the change and I think it was around 9 years ago. I only use oil in an emergency, like there is no wax around.
I use a brand called Tui Balmes from New Zealand. I made the switch primarily because of the damaging effect of oil on linen and the problem of regulating friction with oil. Wax will not spill out of it's container and doesn't soak into towels like oil can.
Of particular interest to the SI people out there is the fascial release balm that Tui make. I would be interested in anyone's experience using magnesium rich gels in bodywork.
