Hello folks
I give you Gabrielle Roth, dancer and former faculty member at the Esalen Institute:
“For me, massage is a spiritual practice for both giver and receiver. In everything is the seed of its apparent opposite, and in no practice is this more apparent than in the ordinary act of reaching out to touch another. We need each other. We each possess the power to heal, and this power can only move through creative action. We, who have been so lost, desperately need keys to unlock the wisdom of affection and intimacy in safe, natural, and organic ways. Massage is such a tool…” from Connecting through Touch by Peggy Morrison Horan.

This past Monday I received a massage from one of my favorite therapists. I thought I was being smart, having just gotten out of the car after a 2 day drive home from 5 days of skiing in Big Sky, MT. And then yesterday I pulled my way through my first rowing practice in 5 months. I’ll be scheduling another massage at first light. Portlanders are all manic in the spring – sound like you? Come on in – we’ll work the whine out of those newly awakened muscles, and get you on a healthy path through the active season.
Hope you’re well, and enjoying the heady scents of spring.
Michelle
