    I don't know but it's a upper body work out. I figure you could put in weight training light or moderate depending what type of message it was.
    I know I could use one LOL.

    Would you really want to count those calories? That's kind of a reach

    I get a shaitsu massage regularly and my muscles feel worked and I feel warm after too. That being said, I believe the masseuse gets a better work out than I do lying there.

    Counting calories from a massage would be the same as counting calories burned while you wash dishes or go grocery shopping. They are minimal and just a part of your life style and they aren't worth counting as exercise
