  • Massage and Mental Health

    Namaste There is much more talk now about mental health like it is something we discovered during the lockdown, (the Social Workers must be cringing) that I decided to see how many instances I can label.  In reviewing my journals I saw an entry from 2006 of conversation with an Editor of a magazine about…

  • Intimate Relationship Abuse

    Namaste How can Massage Therapy be of any help to women who suffer from abuse?  After a few minutes of persuasive conversation from a friend, I accepted an invitation to participate in a group chat about domestic abuse.  She understood that my contribution might have no straight line to the issue at hand, but she…

    Namaste A massage is appreciated for many reasons, its sedative effect being one. Some of my clients require 2-hour massages during which they capitalize on their sleep, especially if they’ve been working long hours and can feel their sleep deficit beginning to require payment.  During a regular 1-hour massage there are those who look forward…

  • Snake Oil Massage

    This is a natural product that once belonged to the low-priced, low-profit category of natural remedies; if for no other reason because it could not be patented so that the price could be manipulated. It is also one of those traditional remedies that worked, but the explanation given for how it worked seemed incredulous. Thankfully,…
