I have had a new flourish of
massage clients over the past few weeks which is ace. And I’ve loved meeting
new people, massaging old friends for the first time and returning to well
massaged bodies for more work too. It’s all ace for me.
Every time someone
rings me or emails me and asks to come for a massage it makes me happy on the
inside, not for my wallet. I’m happy that people value the importance of taking
care of themselves, looking after their bodies. And they trust me to help them
take care of themselves. It’s a great
job, I really can’t complain.
Every now again you can get a client who just gets you and what you’re trying to do. They completely relax their
body into your hands and allow you to work with them and in the end they get so
much more out of the massage than just relaxation or looser shoulders or
whatever they came in for. They get this calm serene look on their faces. It almost
looks a bit like they’re drunk, but drunk on happiness. And when I see that
look in people, it immediately reminds me of why I trained and why I’m the
luckiest person in the world for getting to do this wonderful job.
