Massage for me, and how it has changed my life

I want to share a personal side of me and my profession.  Many of us have our stories that we share when we're asked, what made you start your interests in massage.  Honestly, my mother and father.  They were both very loving, and had a great pat on the back for the good things we did as their children.  My mother would always relax us with a wonderful back scratch with her loving hands.  My father always needed back work and would ask for me to fix his pains.  It all kinda built from there.  Later in my own family life after children I discovered a will to go into the Healthcare Profession.  Working as a secretary I worked my way thru Massage School.  Massage has been a very uplifting and spiritually enhanced career for me.  I focus not only on my clients needs, but the needs of my own body.  I did not realize how badly I needed massage as client until I laid on another therapists table and actually felt a great result thru her work.  It honeslty is a gift to help others in this way, and to experience it for myself all the time.  Now I just pray that God to allow me to continue to be blessed with my health and allow me the strength and guidance to continue helping others thru my massage career.

This has become my life, and my passion is so driven to work as long as I can in the industry.  With so much to learn too. That's one of my favorite parts of being into Massage Therapy!  I will always feel this way, going into my career for 2 years in August as a Licensed Professional.  My focus is Trigger Point Therapy, MFR, and wanting to get into Eric Dalton's Myoskeletal work.  Great stuff we have in our field!  Thank you for reading my blog. :)
