Which is better a occupational therapist or a physical therapist?
It's not that one is better than the other; it's just that they are different. The question should be, "which one is best for me?" In order to determine that, you must first acquire a vision; a specific and clearly articulated picture of the future you intend to create for yourself. This vision should be based on a passion for what you want to do and the benefit it will bring to others as well as yourself. Once you acquire the vision, your path will become clear.
Is conversing about therapy procedures considered to be 'therapy' as well?
The short answer is "no." Unless your therapist/client relationship has been established, then you are not receiving therapy. If you were conversing about therapy procedures with a therapist (e.g. social worker, psychologist, etc.), and they recommended a particular therapy and gave you a 5 minute demonstration of what that therapeutic approach would be like, there might be some grounds for claiming that a therapist/client relationship had been established, even if it was not explicitly stated. However, talking about therapy procedures does not establish a therapeutic relationship.If you are a therapist and you talk to another therapist about the aspects of your work without including specific names of clients/patients, then this type of conversation can be considered therapy. Virtually all of the therapeutic healing arts have support and mentoring as part of their coping mechanisms. Therapists engage in therapy, therefore they are subject to a lot of 'dumping' by their clients and need a system by which they can let go of the transferences that ultimately, and naturally, occur during therapy. In other words, to be a good therapist, you will probably need to get regular therapy, yourself. That can include having another professional with an ear to listen with and a shoulder to cry on, or it can be in the form of the other providing safe touch. We massage therapists often ask each other when the other is feeling a bit down, "Have you had a massage recently? If not, get your therapy by getting one!"

Do women like their breasts massaged?
Massaging of breast tissue, not including the areola and nipple, is considered beneficial for good health whether it is self-massage, or by a professional. If a massage therapist does that, the main modality is manual lymphatic drainage. The therapist needs to be specifically trained, usually in the Vodder system. The breasts are draped at all times and only the fatty glandular tissue is massaged, not the areolas and nipples.From a veteran guy massage therapist to all the guys. JUST DON'T DO IT. I've been trained in the Vodder method and did a massage on a woman's breasts during my training, and then never offered it to my female clients. Listen guys, if you are like me, I had to use so much attention and focus to remain in a therapeutic mental mode that it was really exhausting. There is just too much symbolism and ritual about women's breast in the American culture that it is best to just not do breast massage if you are a male therapist. Let the women take care of that. I'm being direct and honest, if it sounds like a good idea to you to do it, then exam your motivation and look inside yourself to see if your intentions are purely therapeutic. That takes a lot of will power to maintain it if you can put yourself there, and the payoff in therapy and healing for all that energy is not worth it, in my opinion.
