Q. If you were a customer, what do you wish you knew about your trade? Any inside secrets to share?

A. If I was a customer I would want to know that every muscle in my body is connected like the song the neck bone is conncted to the shulder bone is true so is the muscles. I would most likely want to know about my habits of the type of clothing that I chose or may have chosen as a young girl or may allow my young daughter to wear. The ramification of that chose is you can develop a muscle issue in your leg muscles that could require attetion from physcian. I would truly want to know about my psychosis and how my thought process affect my health and why the music used is a soothing healing music and the oils all promote healing.

Q. Why does your work stand out from others who do what you do?

A. As a Liscensed Massage Therapist the sevice I provide is healing for mind body and spirit. Normally when you receive a massage the focus is on the muscles and the diagnoses of different ailments going on in ones body. I focus there I just take it one step further. I present you with a questionaire that ask you about your habits and what u do for yourself. from there we develope a plan that consists of you doing things for yourself that you would not normally do. One of the questions that are asked is if you had only 30 days to live what would you do in those 30 days. The cleint provide the answer and we make a plan from there. the appointment that is set for 30 days out you come back in to tell me the things that you have accomplished in those 30 days. At this point a lot of people reconnect with God, with old friends, etc. I also provide free 1hr massage to all elderly people over the age of 50 once a month this service can be received up to twice a year provided the space is available. In that massage you receive same quality of service as if you have paid. I also focus on your emotional state of being. In with that a questionaire is presented to client and client answers a series of questions and a plan from their is provided for client to follow and report on next visit all visits are set out for 1st timers two weeks apart and after that weekly or biweekly. We offer training in stretches for optimizing the esperience of the massage, we offer weekly excercice classes that can be attended by client for regular health maintenance, we offer posture instruction in walking and sleeping to help optimize daily life of the clients health. We also offer a Belly Dancing training that helps to liberate the client that has endured some low self esteem problems in their past and some that just needs to be liberated after a break up in a relationship or divorce or for a bridal shower or just some let's get together me and the girls time. We do all of this with the focus of the woman being healed in a Holistic way. we also offer healthy eating eating to live and stay healthy.

Q. What do you like most about your job?

A. I like the relationship building part of my Job. I do not just give you a massage. I get to know you as that is a very important part of truly receiving your healing through massage. I like the outcome of a woman coming back after she has done her 30 day reflection and has done something for herself that she has not done in years even if it is just standing up for herself. or going to the movie to see the healthy glow from her face because emotionaly she has made a milestone in her life. or just seeing the beleif in one self after they have researched for a trip that they thought they would never be able to afford but just because they have put forth the effort they now have a plan some goals and know that they can reach that goal. and because of that begin to reach more goals and make more plans. Branch out and create different avenuse to reach those goals. That's what brings me the greatest joy to see healing come forth. Even healing in the body for the client to leave refreshed revived for the pain to be relived and a feeling of being able to finish out that work week they thought they would'nt finish.

Q. What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?

A. Why Do My Shoulders hurt so bad? I more often than not have to answer and say it is due to poor posture in sitting, standing, walking, sleeping.
Why Do my Lower back hurt me so bad? After i have asked appropriate questions and ruled out back injuries my answer is not enough water and again poor posture. in siiting more often than not driving.
Why can I not sleep at night?
Stress is the answer after a series of questions and the most common is a lack of self love neglect of one self looking out for other's and not understanding that yes we are nurtures as wome but we have to have me time alone time time that is stolen away steal away. Insecurities about one self in men women and children.

Q. Do you have a favorite story from your work?

A. My story comes from the beggining of my career when I worked in a home as a HTS I had a 5yr old client who had autism which is where craniosacral massage comes in which is wisdom of the mind being centered. He caused me to research and aquire the knowledge to perform craniosacral massage. I upon arrival noticed that he took very long naps and he would watch T.V. but not for very long amounts of time if he sat still for to long he would just sleep. he would also get up in the middle of the night and run around the house while everyone else was sleep so their was a lot of safety measures that had to be taken. Before I left the home he was sleeping all night long more alert very nurturing himself and had a lot more energy to do things in the day time that would help facilitate his sleep pattern at night. That was one of the most rewarding times I have had in my career. I have one more I have a client a male married client that has been married for a while and him and wife spit up and go back together things had been a little rocky and he began to get regular massages he was truly tested in the area of faithfulness to his wife. Through massage and the therapy that he received he began to speak differntly and be a lot more optimstic about his marriage and home life.
