How long should a back massage last?

1-2 minutes
3-5 minutes
6-8 minutes
10 minutes

The correct answer is: 3-5 minutes

A back massage should not be too short as it may not fully relax the muscles and provide relief. In contrast, a back massage that is too long can cause overstimulation and lead to discomfort. The recommended duration for a back massage is typically between 3-5 minutes. Some factors that may influence the length of a back massage include the client's preferences and the type of massage being performed. For example, a deep tissue massage may require a longer duration compared to a Swedish massage. Therefore, options A, C, and D may not be the ideal length for a back massage.
