Healing Massage

The thoughts of me becoming to a good Massage Therapist has been keep coming to my mind for the last many years.

I gave you a few examples:  Thirteen years ago, I met a Priest and gave him a head, shoulder and back massage due to his headache, and he told me that “Chunmei, you have healing hands, I feel so much better now.

My headache is gong…….”.  I regularly message my two dear children since they were born, and found that they always sleep very well and calm.

My children often said to me that “Mum, you have beautiful touch, I feel so good, please can you give me a touch at my back…..”.

A few of my close friends very often suggests to me to become a Massage Therapist as they also feel that my touch is very amazing to their body.

Anyway, cut story short, at the beginning of 2016, I asked God to give me a sign if I should becoming a Massage Therapist, and at the same day I received a phone call from a stranger who asked me if I do massage.

Wow!  I considered it as the sign that it is a call for me to become a good Healing Massage Therapist, and so the rest is history…..

Massage Therapy begins thousands of years ago.  The very first written record s have been found in both China and Egypt.

The earliest known Chinese text for medicinal practices is known as “The Yellow Emperor’s Classic Book of Internal Medicine”, or “Huang Di Nei Jing” in Chinese.

This book has become the lynchopin for massage therapy, training, and is often used to teach many other forms of alternative medicine, including acupuncture, acupressure, and herbology.

So what does Massage Therapist do? and How can it help you?
