Can i get HIV from massage

recently had a body massage and am paranoid about HIV. girl was fully clothed at all times and did not touch my penis at any time as I was either face down( I did 'leak' a little when face down) and was covered with a towel when face up.  she did massage my butt but made no contact with my anus. she briefly massaged my chest and nipple area. at one point she briefly strattled(fully clothed) the back of my head and shoulders when I was face down to massage my back/butt. I'm trying to tell myself I am OCD- but want to know if any risk? trying to get past this but struggling.  thanks.

You had absolutely NO RISK for HIV from this experience.
There are only three ways you can acquire HIV:

1) Unprotected insertive anal/vaginal sex with an HIV+ partner

2) Sharing drug works (IV needles) with an HIV+ person

3) HIV+ woman to her unborn child

Relax........and get yourself educated about HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases and ALWAYS use a condom.
