I had a proper pro massage today and it was great. During the message I had no idea how much stress and tension in my shoulders and neck. Believe me I will be having another because I need it every once and awhile.

It is a great thing to have a professional tend to the tightness and inflammation of our muscles. Most of us forget our skin is a sensory organ, and when it is rubbed and stimulating the sensation can be very pleasant. Best wishes. Hugs

And for those who are Christian, one of the greatest commandments is to love your neighbor as yourself. Part of that involves loving yourself. Indeed, self-love is important. 🙂

glad you had a massage- and don’t forget regular workouts can have powerful effects on the body too – seriously – people forget this – but we align our body and shake out a lot of stress when we regularly “move” – and I am not saying cardio junkie – that is often too much – but massages are nice – and workouts are too
🙂

Massage can be so amazingly health-promoting. It’s too bad more people don’t try it. My rheumatologist recommended it for my arthritis pain, and my regular doctor suggested it for migraine. A colleague once told me she couldn’t imagine letting anyone but her husband touch her “like that,” and I was shocked to think a modern professional woman had such a dirty notion of therapeutic massage.
Did you ever read my post about the “Beastie Ball” massager I use to combat headaches? A lacrosse ball works, too, but the nubs on this specialty tool offer the best self-care massage I’ve found yet. It’s also amazing how sometimes, to stop a headache, I need to roll out tension from a shoulder or even a hip. It’s all connected!
