If you desire to dance naked under the moonlight, more power to you, however you still need to be aware of the effects of gravity on unsupported appendages.
The human body is a beautifully complex machine….and no one ever reads the instruction manual for proper operation and maintenance.
Empowerment and understanding are the first step on the path to health.
Taking the time to make sure your client fully understands the disease, disorder, injury or surgery they are facing is never contra-indicated.
Taking time out to receive a relaxing, feel good massage is as powerful and necessary as major rehab or medical massage.
No one individual is the same as any other and therefore there is no one end all be all modality, method or process for restoring balance and wellbeing.
It is not an apple a day that keeps the doctor away…it is traction!
If you are not in tune with or aware of your client/patient’s emotional and mental state at the time of treatment then you have missed the opportunity to truly be effective.
Disease, Disorder, or Major Injury does not just affect the individual but rather all those who surrounding them. Always pay attention to and have concern for the immediate family and caregivers and their well-being. For it is a connected cycle that can either hinder or bolster recovery.
There is more to being a Massage Therapist then hands-on.
You need to have a full toolbox of techniques and methods but at the same time they need to be a matched set. You also must have the proper training to fully understand how to utilize them.
Stretching is so much more then you ever imagined.
I do not “DO” my clients. That is a different profession with better tips. I work with my clients to assist them on the path to balance and well-being.
Always treat the Somatic body like a five year old- never force it to do something- show it the way and allow it to learn and make the change for itself.
Body Mechanics! Body Mechanics! Body Mechanics!
I never want to work hard, I would much rather work effectively & efficiently with as little effort as possible.
Never judge another profession or technique unless you have full understanding of their methodology.
Humor and chocolate are my favorite medicines.
Children once knocked off their intended path for growth via injury or illness need to be guided back after recovery. Children must have rehab!
When all else fails unplug and start again.
When in doubt stop and ask for help.
No question is ever stupid if you truly want to know the answer.
Life is short get over yourself
The first step is acknowledgement, the second is understanding and the third is applied effort for correction all of which leads to empowerment.
Good or Bad everything has side effects.
Fix yourself first.
