#142 The Reddit Episode: Laughs, Cringe, and Lessons From Both Sides of the Table with Samantha Storozuk, RMT

For our last episode of 2025, We welcome back Samantha Storozuk, RMT to the podcast for a “Reddit stories” episode diving into the wild, weird, and wonderfully relatable side of massage therapy. From client awkward moments to therapist mishaps. You’ll laugh, cringe, and leave with a few practical reminders about communication, comfort on the table, and what clients are allowed and encouraged to ask for during a treatment.

In this episode, we cover:

  • Why this format works: therapist stories + client stories (and what each teaches us)

  • Client comfort: shifting on the table, speaking up, and “you’re not being annoying” energy

    • What a client can do when they feel uneasy with a therapist’s vibe
    • Therapist “oops” moments, social awkwardness, and how to recover with professionalism.
