Tips/tricks for not laughing/squirming during pedicure

This is an unbelievably embarrassing thing to ask, but seeing as I'm getting my first pedicure of the year this week (yay, Spring!) I gotta know if anyone else, a. has this problem, and b. has a solution.

I absolutely love getting pedicures (especially when they use hot stones) but I am, admittedly, very ticklish. I know nail technicians have seen it all but I always feel so childish and silly when I start to laugh and squirm/move around during the pumice stone portion.

I try and take deep breaths and occasionally that works, but I was curious if anyone else had a helpful tip or trick here. Thanks!
