Henri, who lives in Helsinki, is a busy person engaged in office work. Henri has invested less in body care through massage. The excitement to try massage was surpassed when he heard about Bluumo. The ease of online purchasing combined with home delivery sparked his interest. The option to pay for the delivered sports massage with ePassi supported his decision to make the purchase.
The experiences of a new user with Bluumo
Below, we present a first-timer's experiences with Bluumo in the form of an interview.
How did you hear about Bluumo?
My friend recommended trying Bluumo. I hadn't come across the company before, and my friend's recommendation had a significant impact on my decision to try ordering a massage online.
What was the primary reason for ordering a massage?
I do a lot of desk work, especially at my home office, and sometimes the ergonomics are a bit hit or miss. However, body maintenance and physical activity are important themes for me. That's why I thought that releasing tension through massage could be a good idea. Booking a massage appointment, and especially finding time to go to a massage salon, seemed somehow cumbersome. I thought that ordering a massage to my home could be the most convenient way for me.
How did the ordering process go?
Ordering from Bluumo's website was as easy as any other online purchase. I had already glanced at the instructions related to using the well-being benefit on Bluumo's site in advance, so that part was clear to me as well. It didn't matter to me which of the massage therapists would be performing the massage I ordered, but I still took a look at the therapists' profile pages on Bluumo's site before placing the order.
What are your initial thoughts about the actual massage experience?
Before the massage, I was a bit curious about how the massage would practically work in a home setting. Once the massage therapist had set up the massage table and I lay down on it, I didn't really think about anything specific anymore. During the massage, I let my thoughts wander and focused primarily on relaxation and enjoying the massage.
How did you feel after the massage?
I wasn't quite sure what benefits I would get from the massage. However, after the massage, I did notice a difference in how I felt. I was relaxed, and my body felt more mobile. Apparently, massage also stimulates metabolism in a different way, helping to eliminate toxins from the body. Even though I didn't physically feel it, the idea of toxins being removed from the muscles and the entire body felt pleasant. Especially after the massage, the convenience of home delivery became evident. Trudging through the snow to get home would have effectively disrupted the relaxed state. Now, the relaxed state of mind persisted throughout the entire evening at home.
Do you plan to order a home massage again?
The experience was indeed very positive, and apparently, it's worthwhile to have massages somewhat regularly to maintain the positive effects. I plan to use Bluumo again, and I have already recommended it to a couple of friends considering massage appointments.
Getting a massage is an investment in oneself
Price and time are the most common reasons why people don't use massage services more frequently. Some may also be uncomfortable with physical touch. Others may doubt whether massage is just a form of stroking or if it genuinely brings any therapeutic benefits.
Massage has been proven to help address muscle tension and pain. It's not just elite athletes who benefit from regular massages. For example, office workers are exposed to static and repetitive work postures, leading to tension in the neck and shoulder area.
Massage has both therapeutic and preventive effects on the body. Additionally, massage has been scientifically shown to lower blood pressure and reduce stress levels. Some massages are intended more as pampering treatments, emphasizing the positive psychological effects of the therapy.
