Hello my dear clients and friends, 

 

I am happy to say that it is finally time for Bellanina Facelift Massage to return. I had just made the decision, and immediately two people asked about it, before I even publicized it…..so it feels like the timing is right. See a description here. It’s a lovely change from regular table massage and completely different from my other offerings. It’s appropriate for everyone and very conducive to deep relaxation.

 

St. Lawrence Health has lifted the mask mandate in most hospitals and clinics. In the massage room, as well as at Nature’s Storehouse, masking is optional. If you are sick or have recently been around someone who is sick, please reschedule your appointment. I have been wearing a mask when I work at the head of the table, and we can use one whenever we feel like it. Jean and I still have all the other protocols in place, including the air purifier and airing out the room after each client. 

 

I am looking forward to a trip to Montreal soon for another Thai Massage training at the Lotus Palm School. This one will give me more tools for working with elderly people and pregnant women. I’m excited to learn more ways to get everyone on the floor with me! Thai Massage offers many options for learning to be more comfortable and flexible in our bodies.

 

I wanted to share a new resource a fellow massage therapist told me about. It’s a website that offers completely free online workout classes. A wide variety suits all levels, including yoga and meditation. I am loving it. You will find it at Fiton.com.

 

One of the ways I keep my energy revitalized, and keep the joy in giving massages day after day, is to receive massages regularly myself. Recently I had the pleasure of receiving in my own office, and it made me aware of a few details I could improve to make the room more comfortable (for me, on the table). 

 

Receiving a massage reminds me that it’s not always the easiest thing to ask for every little adjustment when I have to struggle to ask for something from my relaxed state. Please be assured that there is no limit to how many times you can ask for more or less heat, blankets, pressure, light, music, or whatever it may be. 

It’s your massage!

 

Peace and love,
